The average pole price is $1,100, according this calculator by the National Pole Carving Association. That’s $1,100 for the entire piece of wood. Dance pole prices vary, depending on where you live. Dancers say they have to get creative about price to keep their cost down. Dancers pay cash for pole rental. You can use […]
If you can be fit with pole and ballet at the same time, well, it sure shows how good you are at the physical demands of the dance! Here are some simple, but very effective, methods for losing weight. 1. Eat Right. Eat less. Get more energy! If you’re not eating healthy, it’s no wonder […]
No. That’s a lot different. So, with pole dancing, we’ve always encouraged couples to take it slow, go at the same pace they do when they’re stripping; they’re just not allowed to do both at one time. But for pole dancing, a couple will get into position and do the moves—but they have to be […]

Is there anything you’ve done recently that has been particularly effective? I’ve been making and performing in the music video series of Nacho Libre in recent weeks and I’ve been to the USA, Greece and Turkey on my travels. Having said all of that, I did end up in the UK a few weeks ago […]
In a word, no. There’s no rulebook governing pole dancing. But you can probably draw up an analogy to the sport that’s more than one degree above running, say. “So, in this case, it’s like jumping. How do you jump? You get to the ground, you start running, you can jump higher.” The rules seem […]
In pole dancing the core muscles of the body which create tension include the buttocks, thighs, shoulders, back, arms and legs. They are divided up and moved like a person who is trying to balance a large ball on the other side of the room. The legs move to the right and the arms move […]
