4 Reasons Why Pole Dancing is Amazing

It makes you feel strong and powerful

You need to carry the weight of your whole body – do various spins, lifts and dance while making the moves look smooth. It’s an incredible exercise and after a while you realise you walk with your head held high, you feel strong and powerful because you know what your body is capable of.

There’s always a goal to aim for

There are so many moves you can learn to do on the pole and constantly improve. At first, you want to climb the pole, then you see someone perform and want to learn the tricks they do and when you learn those, a new world opens and you see other pole moves, and then again and again. There’s always a tangible goal and “to be more fit” is just something that goes with it because what you focus on is being a better dancer. The goal setting and achievement keeps the motivation high because you can always see the progress.

It’s not just about being sexy, it’s about being confident

Pole dancing makes you go out of your comfort zone like not many other sports do. I mean, you perform extremely hard tricks on the pole in a sports bra and hot pants. When you can do this, it feels like you can conquer the world. So yes, if you want it to look sexy, it will, because you’re confident in what you do, you are comfortable in your own body and what’s sexier than that?

Great people and strong friendships within the community

You feel the sense of encouragement and support when you walk into the studio whether you’re a beginner or a pro. Finding great and strong friendship might sometimes be hard but the pole dance community is really welcoming and supportive, so spending time with people you share this passion with is always time well spent. Moreover, the world is a fast and busy place so finding a safe and happy place with people who stand by you, is priceless.
