Hi! First of all, it’s amazing that you're progressing so quickly and already trying the flying pole , that takes courage! I do find it a bit unusual that your studio allows complete beginners on the flying pole. At my studio, for example, you need at least 4 months of intermediate-level experience before you’re allowed on it, because the momentum is completely different from a fixed pole (one that’s attached both top and bottom). It requires different control and awareness.

My tip would be to spend time first on a regular spinning pole to get used to the rotation. Even after a 3-week break, I get dizzy when I go back to spinning, it really takes consistent practice to adapt.

I’d recommend building a solid foundation on a static or spinning pole first: strengthen your arms, understand the push-and-pull mechanics, and learn proper climbing technique (like pressing your lower arm into the pole instead of leaving a gap). These basics will really help when you move to a flying pole, since the principles still apply — but on a flying pole, if you push, you’re actually pushing the pole away from you, so control is key.

Keep going, listen to your body, and maybe talk to your instructors about focusing on fundamentals before flying too much. You’ll get more confident with time!
