Deadlift Handstand (into Pole)

by Holly Munson

Stand facing the pole. Bend over and place your hands on the floor and your upper back onto the pole. Walk your hands away from the pole until you are on your tip toes. Push with your feet and arms and use this momentum to bring your legs up, out to the side and then together above your head.

Pole Dance Instructor & PoleFreaks Founder

Holly started pole dancing after admiring the grace, skill and elegance of pole performances and immediately falling in love with the style. After half a decade of bruises, struggling and then the satisfaction of success, her own pole school Firefly Poles was born. The vision is to share that same passion with others.
Holly wished that there was more Pole Dancing help available when I was learning, so now she aims to provide that help through writing, blogging and teaching here on PoleFreaks.
Holly is also a Level 4 advanced personal trainer and an ambassador for Dragonfly pole wear, and also writes regularly for the Dragonfly blog .
