Connotations of Pole Fit Vs The Truth

When I tell anyone I do Pole Fit (which is pole dancing for fitness, not financial gain), I can see his or her little brain ticking. Generally speaking, people automatically associate the words sleazy, seedy and immoral to the hobby.

Prancing around a pole in next to nothing gyrating against it, is what springs to mind, and is usually the case, but let me tell you something; it is so much more!

Incorporating both exercise and dance along with the use of pole equals Pole Fit. It’s a great way of improving muscle tone, flexibility and general fitness, and unbelievably boosts self of esteem and confidence. Rather than going to the gym and sweating my way through a workout, which is my idea of hell, Pole Fit is so much fun! 

Not only is it a test of physical strength, it’s a challenge for the mind too. Mentally you have to build yourself up to just go for moves, which if done wrong, could be dangerous. You learn to trust yourself and your capabilities.

Over the next few months, I’ll be bringing interviews with fellow Pole Fittys, videos, photos and my experience with Pole Fit!
