Lisa Peklo: Hi! I am Lisa Peklo with Diva Fit pole dancing studio in Ashburn. I am going to show you how to do a Showgirl Spin. Please make sure you are warm before attempting this spin. This spin can be done with a safety precaution, so I am going to show it to you two ways. One, landing on your knees, and two, pulling out of the spin before you land on your knees. So, if you have some knee issues or you just dont like landing on your knees, stay tuned and I will show you both versions. The first version looks like this; this is where you land on your knees. So, let me break that down for you real quick. Your inside arm is up nice and high on the pole, you are going to take your inside leg closest to the pole and you are going to hook it behind the knee. You dont want to hook it too high, because this other knee needs to be at the same height when it comes up. So, a low hook, outside arm to the pole. Now here is key, you dont want to fall into the spin with your shoulder down, because you are just going to crash into the pole. So chest needs to stay up high with a little arch in your back and as I go around the pole, this outside leg is going to pick up and I am going to bend the knee.

If I were to freeze my spin, it would like this in mid air. Okay, this outside arm is helping to keep you pushed away from the pole, so here we go. We are just going to simply tip forward and pull up the leg with a gentle landing on the knees. You can walk into that spin, remembering to hook the inside leg as you go and pushing off with the outside leg. Okay, you can do a big stand up once you get to the bottom. Now, if you dont like to land on your knees, you simply pull out of the spin early by bringing both of your feet and placing them on the floor. It would look this. Alright, happy practicing!
