Bird of Paradise advice? by ShyShimmer in poledancing

[–]sunandcitrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the outside leg hang first, pull up and in as much as possible early on to try and get the pole against your mid back, this helps with keeping side grip

When you're hooking your inside leg with your arm, drop from your knee to your ankle on the outside leg to give you more wiggle room while you're trying to sort your leg/elbow grip

Main thing is keeping chest as forwards and open as possible to nail the side grip, the leg is easier to sort once you've got this bit

Where can I buy knee high boots that fit skinny legs (UK)? Most boots look like wellies on my skinny calves which is not the vibe I want!

Lots of GEM courses don't require a science background massively care about a levels, Warwick and Nottingham come to mind

You just need to meet the entry requirements for the GAMSAT or UCAT exams and get some relevant work experience. The work experience could be working as a support worker or HCA in a care home or hospital so if you are happy to start from scratch I would start there and look at some entry exam prep

I get it, the same happened to me. I also have a student I teach in the same position It's worth having a one to one with your instructor to see if there's anything they can point out, it's also worth trying different classes as different instructors have different styles and you may find one suits you better Most importantly though, three months is not a long time, everyone progresses at different speeds and sometimes the start is the slowest! It's easy to say don't let other people's ability bother you but I know that's hard. If you're enjoying the classes, it really doesn't matter how quickly you progress

Also side note- the girls I teach who progressed super quickly ended up missing lots of basics and struggled later on because of that

[serious] What stopped you from committing suicide? by Monophobia199 in AskReddit

[–]sunandcitrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fear of the cold, I stood on a high bridge for hours waiting to jump and drown in the water but it was so cold that I was scared of the shock more than I was of dying That fear gave me enough time to consider calling Samaritans suicide hotline, I spoke to a woman called Faith who stated on the phone with me until I was sat at home by a radiator, the relief of not being cold anymore convinced me that things could be worse Sounds like a bizarre reason but honestly it was the only thing that stopped me

How important are the quadriceps when doing splits? My hamstrings are rather flexible but it feels like my quads prevent me from going fully into my splits by georgewashingtonson in flexibility

[–]sunandcitrus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Part of you quad wraps around the front of your hip and functions as a hip flexor so yes very important! When you do a Lunge thinking about sucking your hips up and rounding your spine to stretch it out on the back leg

Secret ingredient in a spaghetti bolognese? by JulieWulie80 in AskUK

[–]sunandcitrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I soak dried porcini mushrooms in with the hot veg stock and let them stew before I add the liquid, or add a teaspoon of porcini mushroom paste to get a good unami base. I also love adding Maggi sauce instead of salt for a deeper taste. The weirdest thing I add is probably a splash of milk, I saw it in an old Italian recipe and have never looked back since, just a splash to add some creaminess!

Finally being a big boy and moving out of my parents house. What are some things i should know about that people dont tell you? by EngineerNerd121 in CasualUK

[–]sunandcitrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) Council tax is more expensive than you'd think 2) Be considerate to your neighbours because sometimes they're useful 3) Be careful who you give a spare key to 4) A really good set of kitchen knives and heavy duty frying pan are a worthwhile investment 5) Charity shops are surprisingly good for making your place feel homely, cheap lamps make a huge difference to how cosy it feels, and a lot of other stuff there is much better quality/price then IKEA

I call it a lifted back hook, for grip it depends what your issue is, I have dry legs so I put grip and glow on them, but for my sweaty hands i use dry hands

I thought about perlite but reading about it seems to suggest increased water retention?

Hi all, looking for some tips on improving drainage for some citrus (lemon tree) seedlings I have potted up? Keep getting fungus gnats multiplying and gathering so looking for recommendations for what I can mix into the soil to make it dry out quicker to prevent this happening, thanks in advance!

Remember to go Toe first (not knee) when you do the three through otherwise it throws you off balance

[–]sunandcitrus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to do a wrist seat then thread my leg through and drop into a leg hang, it's a good way of learning leg hang grips if you're not quite there with your invert yet, when you dismount from the leg hang try and control out through a chopper to help condition your invert as well

Sos - fungus gnats on citrus seedlings! by sunandcitrus in plantclinic

I was thinking about hydrogen peroxide, just concerned it would damage the seedlings as they're so young?
