Exercise is an important part of a healthy life, but sticking to a regular workout routine can be a struggle. Most experts agree that finding a workout you enjoy can make all the difference. If you’re sick of the treadmill and can’t bear the thought of another typical exercise class, we have a suggestion that will liven things up in more ways than one.
Pole dancing fitness classes are skyrocketing in popularity, and for good reason. This fun, challenging exercise has more benefits than you’d expect. Before you assume that pole dancing isn’t for you, look at some of the reasons you may fall in love with it.
Increase Your Balance and Flexibility
If you’ve ever watched any of our performers at a Bucks Club perform a pole dance, then you know that it takes a lot of flexibility and coordination. If that doesn’t sound like something you could do, don’t worry. Just like other forms of exercise, the classes will help you grow in strength and skill.
This expressive form of dance requires a lot of bending and self-supporting moves. It’s OK; you don’t have to start your pole dancing journey with that level of ability. Over time, the classes will help you increase your flexibility. That, combined with the strength you’ll build as you develop your technique, will help you move your body in a whole new way.
Your newfound strong, supple muscles will give you better balance and coordination. As you develop awareness and control of where your body is in relation to the pole, that will translate into the rest of your life.
Grow in Confidence and Empowerment While Getting in Shape
Showing up for your first pole fitness class may seem intimidating. You may feel a little out of place, especially if this isn’t something you’ve ever tried before. But if you push through those feelings and give it a chance, you’re going to develop skills that will help you see yourself in a whole new light.
This isn’t about the physical changes that come with a workout like this (although full-body sculpting doesn’t usually lower confidence). Taking charge of your body and exploring how you can move it is very empowering. The fact that this style of dance has such a sexy history doesn’t hurt, either.
All exercise boosts feel-good chemicals in the body, but pole dancing offers an extra emotional boost by its very nature.
Become Part of a Diverse and Embracing Community
When you picture a pole dancer, you probably see a woman who has a flawless body and perfect poise. But the truth is that the pole dancing community is very diverse, including people of all body types, backgrounds, and lifestyles.
You’ll find that most pole fitness classes are warm, welcoming places where women actively encourage and support each other. Strong, empowered women typically want to uplift other women, and that’s exactly what happens in the pole dancing community.
You don’t have to try to be perfect because perfection is an illusion. But beauty is attainable because each person expresses it in their own way. Your fellow dancers will be on your side as you explore your own beauty for yourself.
