Frequently Asked Question

Q: What is Pole Fitness and Pole Dancing?
A: Pole Fitness is an extension of pole dancing that uses the pole to its
maximum potential as a versatile piece of fitness equipment. It works the
whole body, improving muscle tone, flexibility, coordination, posture as well as
upper body and core strength.

 

You’ll be amazed at the variety of exercises you can do with a pole, which are
similar to exercises you might do in the gym but using your own body weight

for resistance. From chin-ups to crunches to work your arms and abs and
climbing to swan holds for your legs and bums - you can work it all on a pole.

 

Pole dancing is a combination of dance and gymnastic moves performed
around a vertical pole in a flowing, graceful routine. There are many kinds of
pole moves including spins, poses, floor work, dance and transitional moves,
pole to the floor, and floor to pole moves, and inversions. Pole dancing is growing
in popularity as a form of exercise, with an increased awareness of the fitness
benefits. There are classes nationwide, and many people now own their own
pole at home.

 

Q: I’ve never done pole fitness before will I be able to take a class?
A: YES!! Absolutely, Pole dancing is for anyone and everyone regardless of
your shape and size. All fitness levels are welcomed. At Paradise Pole Fitness
we believe in the power of movement the more you come the more you will
improve upper body strength.
