Join STL Pole Show Headliner Samantha Ivy for TWO awesome workshops!

Babe’s First Drops & Tumbles

Saturday, January 3th, 2026

12:30PM-2:00PM

Adv. Beg +/Mynx Level 3+

Static Pole

Learn new ways to add drama, flair, and wow factor from the bottom up, starting with the smallest of drops, working up to tumbles down the pole. Students will be introduced to key concepts on points of contact and physics, then progressively build skills and linking combos. Includes warmups and drills targeting key muscle groups for strength and range of motion, and methods for safely marking through tumbles before adding full speed and momentum.

Prerequisites: Confident climb, pole sit, jasmine, and secure leg hangs (descending or inverting entrance). Comfort with shapes like cupid, cradle, superman, inverted crucifix, shoulder mount, and jade are not necessary but will give students additional options/variations to explore.

Discover new ways to think about, engage with, and customize your movement, bringing depth, creativity, personalization, and style to even the smallest moments on and off the pole. Socks/Kneepads and Layers Recommended, Heels Optional.
