Other Pole dancers for fitness

I recently started Pole dancing classes (beginner) and love it! I am doing it for fitness but I also like how it brings out a sexier side of me too.

I would love to add friends who are also doing these classes so please reply :)

I ordered my very own xpole 40mm Brass pole, and 2 pairs of pleaser heels that will arrive sometime October :) So excited!

If anyone is like me and hates exercising, do give it a go! It's been 6 weeks and I'm still loving it.

    I can't pole now because the studio in my town close and my house set up is not conducive to it. That being said, I loved it when I did get to do it and I never would have had the confidence to start Crossfit or some of the other stuff I do had I not done pole first. Great workout, super core & upper body strength builder.

    I did it for a very long time, finishing at a very advanced level. Love, love, love it! Had to quit due to a serious back injury (unrelated) but it was definitely one of my favourite workouts.

    I started with pole several years ago and that led me to other aerial arts. I just recently got back to it, though I'm more of a circus type poler than a sexy poler.

    All the aerial stuff is a pretty great workout. It does tend to neglect your lower half, so you might want to add in some lower body work.
