Yes I think it do. The good thing about pole dancing is that it requires the body to be in balance for quite a while and it requires a lot of muscles to get used to that kind of balance. It also helps that you can do a lot of different kinds of poses from […]
I never danced at The Pole, but my husband and I once took a week long pole dance seminar there. And I’d be willing to bet they taught you not to jump with your hands. Advertisement The thing about those “dangerous” dances is that most of them don’t involve jumping—they just move you on your […]
What’s your best trick? A: I was the runner-up in Season 1 of the pole dancing competition. Q: What’s one exercise you would pick up if you were to win a pole dancing competition? A: I would do an abdominal spin on top of a wall. Because that’s what my parents did. And then the […]
I generally practice pole dancing once or twice a week, but most of my time is spent in the car on my bike, especially during summer weekends when my routine shifts to a different tempo. If we are working hard in the office on project or on a new project, it’s much more likely to […]

Of course not! What we call a ‘pole dance’ on TV is exactly like ‘pole dancing in life’. If you like being skinny, why not try it? This is not a ‘stretch’ goal, but at the same time, it is not a ‘get into pole’. Do you have two sets of parents? You don’t! We’re […]
Can you do a pole dance barefoot? Is it okay to wear an extra pair of pants over your bikini top? Is the only acceptable reason to participate in pole dancing that it’s so you can “see what it’s like?” This question is going to haunt you every single time. No, seriously, ask about it, […]

It was not until the late 1880s that the sport gained nationwide popularity in the U.S. However, the first pole dancing competitions were held in Illinois in 1891. When did pole dancing begin in the U.S.? The first […]
