Is the community selfish or ignorant to the Pole facts...

Pole dancing is simply not appropriate for kids.
However vertical pole gymnastics is fantastic; for everyone.

Sofia, a student of mine, is 8 years old.

She did a perfect Half Split Hold with no hands and Flips, Climbs and Locks, like a gymnast champion.

Sofia has absolutely loved the Pole Fitness Studios program for 2 years now and is now at Squad level gymnastics because of her pole skill set and the gymnastic grooming it offers.

No Handed Half Split

I would never incorporate any kind of dance when instructing pole gymnastics (especially not striptease or erotic dance).

These are two individual movement patterns/types (dance and pole)... Combining them creates convolution, the students complete understanding of why, how, when and what they are doing on the pole is gravely effected.

Sofia is already combining some of the hundreds of pole exercises available, into amazing freestyle routines for fun, keeping her fitness training for longer periods of time while in class and completely engaged; May I remind you she is 8.

Gymnastic skills are basics motor skills, our most important requirement to practice, for all of us but especially kids when initially learning them.

Because people chose to combine these two skills (dance and pole), this does not define the pole, instead enhances the clarity between what pole product is for adults only and then appropriate for fitness and kids.

Here are examples of pole gymnastics in other countries...

Pole Mallakhamb (predominantly kids pole sport)

Chinese Pole (circus pole act)

Need help with back pain?

When reading alone; a computer screen makes you lean forward, where as a hard copy allows you to lean backward.

In this day and age, we all need to realign our backs, at least once a week...

A wonderful way to sort out an aching back in less than 5 minutes!

What is the very best exercise available and why?

The Institute of Sport recommend gymnastics to kids (and adults) because it focuses on our basic motor skills and natural movement patterns of the human body... It's natural & practical.

Daisy - Monkey Climbing
Aged 6

Kids are not only more active than adults but they are fearless, willing to try any and all of the apparatus available in the gymnasium.

Generally adults are not as keen, swamped in with life's responsibilities, often cradling joint issues and can totally fathom the burden of hurting ourselves if it goes wrong.

Awesome news... when conditioning your body vertical pole is superior to the other apparatus available in the gymnasium because there is no need to 'release grips' or for 'separate landings' from the apparatus.

Vertical pole is the most gentle on your body and mind.

Even the Rope does not allow for the comfortable 'slide out' emergency exit, that pole offers!

Iris - Monkey Climbing aged 72

Slide down out of an exercise mistake, rather than having to release and land, means Pole Fitness Studios offers the easier of the gymnastic apparatus's making it perfect for adult gymnastics!

Exercise is an essential part of living a healthy and happy life, marking the time and effort, reaps major rewards.
