I'm a fan of using mental visualisations to help carry out and hold the various moves correctly.
Here are a couple to start with, more later.
Roulette Wheel: for smooth round even spins.
Fairground Chairs: for the Carousel and Chair spins
Scissors: for Kicks and slices, eg Foward Kick, Scissors Hop
For Floowork and general Posture
Anyone else use similar mental pictures?! Let me know in the comments...

I imagine myself as the pole, rigid and erect, unyielding.
I never say anything and I do not judge.
Heheheheh.
OMG you've changed your profile pic.
Liked the DC post btw. That lady would make me throw.
I like to use the visual of a little kid swinging around a traffic sign for walking around the pole and a "rolly,polly bug" (real name sow bug, I think) for learning how to hoist yourself up for the basic inversion.
I like to think of an egg timer (the sort that has two glass globes and sand pours from one to the other) to help me with inverts. I visualise pivoting on a centre point.
