Today you'll practice the elbow stand without using the wall or a pole. It's important that you practice in an open space so you don't bump into anything! Remember to breathe while upside down, as holding your breath can cause petechiae.
Pro tip: Always use a crash mat or spotter when working with new skills on and off the pole. In addition to this obvious rule, understanding your mental and physical limitations is the biggest factor in injury prevention. If you're always fearful about working on new things or specific things, it's very helpful to address this and work on it. If you're someone who struggles with negative or fearful self-talk, give this podcast "Are you sabotaging your pole progress?" a listen/watch.
