Are you the person that can run for miles or the one who gives up when it starts to ache a little bit? The more advanced pole dancers can often make things look very easy but some of it is actually very challenging. As fun as they are, the moves you achieve will really work all of your muscles hard. This in turn helps you to improve your strength and endurance. What happens at the end of a long run? You stop. After a workout in the gym? What immediate results do you see?
Pole fitness gives you real success the instant you complete a move, and there's always another one to learn. You'll always want to keep going to reach your goals in pole fitness, remember that euphoria I was talking about earlier?
Well it's an addictive feeling, and that's why nailing your next pole fitness trick is always going to drive your endurance and stamina further, onwards and upwards!
Another plus side of that is that some of the most challenging skills can be the most rewarding and exciting to achieve! I completely understand that most people just want a good workout and they aren't aiming to look sexy in the process. That's absolutely fine, you don't have to be. A lot of people start off purely for exercise with very little dance or floorwork involved.
There's many different styles of pole fitness around, some people might focus on the more flexible and bendy moves while others focus on pure strength. Then there's those that will perform theatrical styles of dance or get a little bit cheeky and twerk it! Some will combine a few or all of these different styles and incorporate other forms of dance such as bellydance for example.
So either turn on your inner sexy and grab those 8 inch heels or activate beast mode and practice barefoot! They make it so much more fun and make your legs look way longer! No matter what your preferred style, no one in the pole fitness community will discriminate so don't be afraid to let your creativity show. When you start to get really good at pole fitness it will almost certainly become one of your biggest passions in life, and what better way to make money than with your passion.
No, that doesn't necessarily revolve around bars or nightclubs but hey if that's what you enjoy then go for it! You could get fitness instructor training and open up your own pole studio to teach other people pole fitness or go into a line of business that compliments it.
Pole clothing, pole shoes , pole art and designs are cropping up left right and center, so if you have an idea you should run with it. There's also of course many people calling for pole fitness to become an Olympic sport and if that were to happen competing athletes could earn money that way too!

There's a huge community of pole fitness enthusiasts out there ready to check out your latest moves, give you feedback and praise and generally keep you motivated if you want it. Personally I've always been very open and passionate about my choice of exercise, so much so that it usually rubs right off onto the nearest people and they end up coming along to try it out.
Shouting it from the rooftops is perhaps not for everybody but hey, it's still a lot of fun to keep it a secret too. Just make sure to let your pole buddies know if you get involved in charity events and things that might get media coverage if you don't want to be seen! Last but not least, if you're feeling down in the dumps there's no better way to brighten your day.

The benefits of pole fitness go so much deeper than just developing physical attributes such as strength, flexibility and agility. It will improve your mind, your confidence, your emotions, stress levels and more while introducing you to new friends too.
You might be sat thinking to yourself 'well sure! Those same guidelines recommend that adults spend at least 2 and a half hours a week doing moderate intensity exercise. In fact, it opens the door to countless additional health benefits.
Pole dancing is an ideal way to hit this 2 and a half hour weekly recommendation because it keeps your heart rate up and incorporates your whole body, even at beginner level.
Furthermore, pole dancing falls somewhere between a moderate and intense physical activity comparable to aerobics or calisthenics. Or, better still, you get a greater benefit for the same amount of time. In addition to that we put together tricks, spins, and transition moves into combos to increase endurance. Other health benefits include increased strength and coordination as well as neurological benefits.
Learning new movement has been proven to develop new neural pathways and help reduce the risk of dementia. Among the health benefits of pole dancing is the fact it helps you approach weight loss from both a cardio and strength perspective. High activity in the sessions helps you burn calories and all the lifting, climbing and holding will help you build muscle.
Can I go upside down and move around? Over time with constant grit and determination, you will be surprised to see that you can say yes to all those questions.
Who you once thought you were is now a more stronger and confident pole dancer. Pole dancing is dancing and like any form of dance, it involves emotions and the freedom to express those emotions. Pole dancing is a great way to show what you feel and who you want to be. Want to let your inner seductress out? An exotic flow will kickstart that. Want to let your inner actress out? An artistic pole class will bring the drama to that character.
Want to test how far your physical limits can go? However wonderful yoga is I just became an instructor , it is limited to the surface of a mat.
Pole has everything that yoga does. In fact, pole uses yoga poses in warm-ups and routines. Pole also has a vastly wider floor area to play with and more things — like cartwheels — to do on it. Even keeping your feet on the floor, having a pole at hand so to speak adds a brand-new dimension to yoga and stretching poses because you can lean on it, pull against it, hook an elbow or knee, etc. And, of course, climbing the pole and wrapping around it offers an entirely new physical geometry for recalibrating the body.
No other sport can push and pretzel a body in so many different ways, which means no other sport can provide a greater variety of the training data a healthy body needs. Learning to deal with diversity in all its forms is what learning is for. Learning helps us conquer uncertainty and fear.
Imagine hanging upside down meters above a hard-wood floor, suspended only by your burning inner thighs squeezing the metal pole for dear life. Imagine how the visceral fear of imminent death motivates a very strong grip, in spite of the pain. Of course, any pole activity can be treated as just an exercise, and not a dance expression. But in its highest calling, the spine expresses itself directly, as our ancestors have danced around fires for a million years. Then, the body is not following remembered instructions using the sympathetic nervous system evolved for sudden problems , but in a state of spontaneous flow, employing the parasympathetic system evolved for continuous, real-time use.
Dance is most beneficial to the dancer when the motions and emotions are spontaneous. That gives the brain a tangible target when reducing body tremors, so it can calm the nervous system. The harder and heavier the object, and the less squishy stuff between it and bone, the higher into the high-bandwidth, ultrasonic zone the calibration can go — and the better it works.
Just touching something as unyielding as a solid metal pole helps recalibrate and realign. It can be a meditative practice to press the forehead, sternum, tailbone or entire backbone against the metal and wait for the body to adapt to it. Then there is the moving surface contacting skin, which prevents the nervous system from its usual trick of locking in its ultrasonic tactile sensors to the surface micro-texture.
That difficulty makes it much harder to feel just how the hand is engaged. Hard but not impossible, obviously. A sufficiently youthful, graceful, uncrusty nervous system, such as that of a teen or a dancer, still has its native tactile bandwidth and range, and thus its native ability to swing like a monkey or even better. The spinning challenge above happens when the pole stays still and the dancer spins.
There is another way to spin. Few non-polers know that dance poles can also be set to spin in their mounts with ball-bearing smoothness and with near invisibility, since a shiny spinning pole still looks still.
As soon as one is spinning with the pole, you have to focus on it while letting the room spin around you. As with playground and amusement park rides, spinning constantly for a couple of minutes can make you feel dizzy some pole studios offer ginger candies to alleviate nausea. But by the same token, spinning is also exhilarating as children prove daily and a potent form of fresh, unusual sensorimotor data, as with the rest of pole.
Spinning pole is weird, but even weirder is that it twists gravity. As with spinning ballerinas, the farther from the axis of spin, the more outward force. That warped gravitational field is hard to notice if arms and legs are both touching the pole. Feeling comfortable on a spinning pole is the mark of a master and usually also of a graceful, symmetric and physically-aligned body. Many of the most fluid dancers report ecstatic states, such as time not merely stopping but ceasing as even a concept.
Healing sex-related abuse by males works best with men removed, for obvious reasons. Practicing pole works the pelvis, the most mistreated zone in modern bodies, in two ways.
One is mechanical and the other is sensual. Mechanically, pole stretches and opens the hips like ballet or yoga, but even more so, involving not just stretching but strength and unusual angles. Often, a pole pose supports the entire body through one or two hip joints, sometimes upside down or sideways. But what makes husbands disown charming, graceful wives over pole is that pole started in strip clubs, and tricks named after professional strippers are taught in studios everywhere.
I know of nowhere else in modern society that people are invited to feel sensual in a social group.
