Outside Leg Hang Variations | Basket & Caramel Swirl
As an intermediate pole dancer, most people will have a hunger for nailing as many tricks as they can. What lots of people don’t realise is that so many tricks are really just variations on a core skill. If you’ve nailed your outside leg hang, it’s time to put this into practice! Adam will show you two variations of the outside leg hang, both look surprisingly different to the core move so you’ll feel like you’re learning two new tricks! But believe us, if you can do an outside leg hang, these variations are well within your grasp.

An elegant favourite! The Eros looks precarious but is quite doable if you have a strong Brass Monkey. This trick can be done on either spin or static, and is really beautiful once you are feeling secure in it. Give it a shot, and post your progress in the Members’ Lounge!
Vortex
The Vortex is a trick that’s accessible for intermediate polers, but with the WOW factor of an advanced move! You’ll need a spinning pole for this one, and make sure you pay attention to all the teaching points to get the line that gives this trick it’s gorgeous aesthetic. Remember to push those arms up so you aren’t wearing your hands as a hat!

The queen of flares is back to bring you her all time favourite move, the Chopper Flare! This super-dynamic flare can be strung together one after the other in a death-defying loop or used as an accent to add some punch to your combos.
