POLE fitness & POLE DANCE

FITNESS ON A WHOLE DIFFERENT LEVEL AND CHALLENGE

MOBILITY & FLEXIBILITY, coordination, confidence, dance,  CONDITIONING

Strength

Without a doubt, practicing pole fitness will improve your core strength. A lot of the moves are similar to gymnastics exercises that engage the whole body. What makes it even more difficult is the fact that you are doing all of this on a vertical pole. 

Good upper body strength is certainly helpful. You’ll need (or develop over time) excellent grip strength and a strong posterior chain.  Inversions are a very typical pole exercise, which basically requires you to tilt your pelvis and lift your feet over your head — all while hanging onto a pole. You will be able to do this very quickly, even if you are a beginner.

Flexibility and Mobility

There is a difference between flexibility and mobility, and you improve in both through Pole Fitness.  Mobility is “proprioception” – our perception and awareness of our body’s positions and movements. Mobility training, then, includes a range of exercises designed to increase your range-of-motion, control muscles surrounding each joint, and help you move more actively.

The sport also involves elements of floor work, which is similar to classic dance or even ballet. A typical pole fitness class will start with flexibility elements as part of a warm-up routine and often finish with some strength exercises. 

Body Awareness

Body awareness (also referred to as kinesthesia) is consciously recognizing how you move your body through space. An important part of body awareness is balance. People with low body awareness may sometimes appear clumsy. 

This is a very important concept, especially for dancers who are often required to activate certain body parts in certain positions in a certain sequence, which non-dancers may struggle with. It can be trained and improved upon through yoga, meditation, or balancing exercises. 

Economy of Motion

Like I mentioned at the beginning, pole fitness has a fairly high rate of perceived exertion. So, it’s hard. The more an athlete develops the ability to use energy efficiently the more difficult combinations they can deliver for a longer time. 

This is very similar to other high-intensity sports like sprinting, gymnastics, or boxing. You need to develop the necessary body awareness to understand how your cardiovascular system reacts to certain stimuli. Over time, this will improve, leading to a positive effect on the elegance of your movements, which leads to my next point. 

Rhythm and Elegance

Acrobatics in general and pole dance in particular are very elegant activities. Different figures, moves and combinations flow from one to the other in a certain sequence. The better the sense of rhythm of an athlete the more elegant the flow. A dance background will certainly help, but it’s not necessary. Rhythm and elegance is something that you will develop over time with consistent practice. 

Work Ethic

Pole fitness is very demanding. It requires hard work, dedication, and consistency to improve. It will help you develop a strong work ethic, which is a transferable skill to other areas of life.

In addition, you will leave your comfort zone, endure soreness, pole burns, and bruises referred to as “pole kisses,” but this is exactly what will make you grow and develop a solid work ethic: Keep working — even if it’s hard — until you achieve your goal.  

Self-Confidence

Related to work ethic is the benefit of developing more confidence and self-esteem. The first time you attend a pole class is probably going to feel weird and uncomfortable.  We know how it feels to be totally out of place and looking like you have the elegance of a potato sack.

Aerial fitness 

FITNESS FLIGHT LIKE NO OTHER

MOBILITY & FLEXIBILITY, coordination, BALANCE, dance,  CONDITIONING

You’ve booked bootcamps, yoga classes,  and spent hours at the barre, but can you say the same for aerial fitness? While just as Instagrammable as the aforementioned wellness crazes, aerial fitness is one workout that few can say they’ve actually tried. Hey, we get it: Hanging upside-down can seem nearly impossible (not to mention scary). But, it turns out, the benefits of doing so make it well worth stepping (er, swinging) outside your comfort zone.
