You srip down and up, dance sensually and gracefully around a vertical pole and be all sexy and happy. ADDITIONAL: When you pole dance you use many muscles in the body, like the arms, legs, core and obliques. You can climb, twist and spin using the pole and can choreograph many dances. There are two main types of pole dancing; Recreational/Fitness Pole Dancing and then there is Stripping Pole Dancing. Self explanatory. :)
Pole dancing is a very very good thing, when used for fitness reasons. It works out many parts of the body, like the arms, legs, core and obliques, and provides a great cardio work out as well! When used in the 'stripper' sense, it is all up to interpretation to whether its a good thing or not.
Pole Dancing is a form of dance which provides an excellent work out for many muscles in the body. I have done pole dancing so I can tell you first hand that to climb, spin etc on a pole involves strength and is a good cardio work out too. It is good.
Often you will have to be either 16 or 18 dependent on where you are and the rules of the center where you are dancing. :)
A strip pole, also known as a stripper pole or dance pole, is a vertical pole that dancers use for pole dancing routines. It is commonly found in strip clubs and some fitness studios for pole dancing fitness classes.
