Pole dancer performs a knee hold.

Pole dancing is a form of dancing/gymnastics that takes muscular endurance and coordination as well as sensuality. It involves dancing sensually with a vertical pole and is often used in strip clubs and gentlemen's clubs, although more recently artistic pole dancing (Chinese poles) is used in cabaret/circus and stage performance in a non-erotic environment. In a strip club setting, pole dancing is often performed less gymnastically and combined with striptease, and/or lap dancing between performers. The dancer(s) may simply hold the pole, or use it to perform more athletic moves such as climbs, spins, and body inversions. Upper body and core strength are important to proficiency, which takes time to develop. Image File history File links Question_book-3. ...

The pole

Standard pole

A home version stage pole

The standard dance pole typically consists of a hollow steel or brass pole with circular cross section, running from floor to ceiling. A fixing at the ceiling gives more stability, but is not always realized, especially at night clubs with higher ceilings or at transportable devices. In the United States, the diameter is usually around 2 inches (50.8 mm), allowing it to be gripped comfortably with one hand. In Asia, the diameter is usually slightly smaller at 45 mm or less.

Pole dance as exercise

Cross knee release on a portable pole.

Recently, pole dancing has caught on as a new and increasingly popular form of exercise, in which women (and sometimes men) use the pole as a workout prop.^[1] This form of exercise increases upper body strength (by using the body itself as resistance) while toning the body as a whole. It is recommended that people give showings to other friends to build up confidence and get more experience.

Pole dance competitions

Although the most common pole dance competitions are still amateur nights at strip clubs, there is a growing community who are trying to get pole dancing taken seriously as a sport and art form. Participants come from local pageants held in venues such as Australia, France, Canada, Japan and the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. More recently, amateur pole dance competitions have been held. As with Miss Pole Dance World, these are strictly non-nude and non-stripping, and focus on pole dance as an athletic and artistic form of dance and exercise. The first "Miss Pole Dance World" competition was held in November 2005, and Reiko Suemune from Japan won the 2005/2006 title.
