Our pole show in Bristol was already 7 weeks ago!
I love a Jade so much. It’s sometimes flat, it’s sometimes not quite. 😅
But from first learning it way back in about 2008 (omg), I have loved the magic of this trick. And if I’m not competing and being scored on it, then I’m leading with feeling and intent for my audience, and not spirit-level flat.
I’m a longboi so the 2-point Jade is my preference, and personally I think it’s the more magical of the 2 options, (even though the 3-point is actually harder for me to balance!).
I taught a sneaky* entry to this in my advanced pole class in Bristol last night. (*does not mean easier here!). Would you like to see it?
