"If you're going to exercise, do something you love!"
So what is it?
Pole dancing is a form of dance in which the performer does tricks around a pole. Watching a pole dancer perform is a real treat to see for more than one reason. The tricks performed can range from a simple leg sweep around the floor while swinging around the pole, to advanced-level power-tricks which turn the dancer upside down, holding on by one leg while rotating! Sometimes it even looks like the dancer has somehow defied gravity with her skills.
I first became interested in taking a pole class myself when I was working as a cigarette-girl in San Francisco. I came into a club with my tray ready only to find the club seemed to be completely empty. I walked toward the back to find it packed with people all with their eyes on the stage. I looked over and saw a beautiful woman performing a dance on a pole. I was mesmerized and forgot about selling cigarettes and candy and watched as she climbed almost to the ceiling, flipped herself upside down, and slid back down the pole with nothing holding her on but the strength of her inner thighs.
When her performance was done, she bowed, and walked off stage. I noticed she was tall, slim, but her stomach was rock solid with muscle and her body was toned.
I thought to myself, "Well, if THAT'S the body you get from doing this stuff, sign me up!"
