Look, Ma, No Hands: Sit to Layback

Let go of your ankle and the pole and lay back, but with caution, control, and confidence.
We start work on Straight Leg Sit during your first pole class, but it takes a while to train the sensitive skin of your inner thighs to want to support your body weight, particularly while inverted.
During this class we will explore Figure 4 Layback, Thigh Hang, Ankle Hang, Remi Layback, and Russian Layback. We’ll start out with the corresponding sits for each, discuss muscle engagement, strength training exercises, and how to transition from sit to layback.
This class is appropriate for pole students of all levels, not just Level 4 students that are already working on laybacks! Lisa’s goal is to give you a good foundation in your sits and get you training the weight shift for laybacks so that you master these moves quickly when they come up in your upper level pole classes.
This class is $21 or 4 tokens, and is included on all Unlimited Passes.
