So, let's dive straight into it, shall we?
Beginner Entry
1. If you're a beginner, you can start from the floor. Hold the pole with both your hands at eye level.
2. Open your hips as you raise the same leg as your top arm. Hook the leg and squeeze the pole behind your knee.
3. Push off the floor with your outside foot to go into a controlled, backwards spin. Remember to keep your arms straight, shoulders engaged and hips pushed back. Raise your outside leg and so that both your knees meet. At this point, your inside leg should still be hooked onto the pole and your outside leg should be straight and engaged.
4. Now, you can release your inside arm and place the pole in the elbow pit as you hold onto the shin of your outside leg. Et voila! You are in a Martini Sit!
INTERMEDIATE ENTRY
1. Start in an outside leg hang, but keep your hands on the pole. Keep your inside arm where it is and pull down as you reach for the pole above your knee with the outside arm. This is called an Outside Leg Hang Pull Up.
2. Reach your inside arm underneath your outside arm.
3. Swing your inside leg to come in front of the pole and extend it. Make sure your knees are glued to each other. Keep squeezing the pole in your inside knee pit.
4. Now, you can release your inside arm and place the pole in the elbow pit as you hold onto the shin of your outside leg.
PROGRESSION: DIRTY MARTINI
Want a juicy progression? Try this one.
1. When you are about to enter your martini, thread your inside arm under your inside leg and grab onto your outside quad. The pole should still be pushing into your inside elbow pit.
2. Once the pole is secured in your inside elbow pit, you can release your outside arm and straighten your top leg! There you have it: Dirty Martini 🍸
Entries close midnight March 31st & winner gets announced on April 1st 👑
