There are many benefits of pole dancing for exercise, many of which are secretly hidden away in a pole dance hall where they are rarely talked about as most people in the class are busy trying to learn a new move. .

While pole dancing has obvious health and fitness benefits, there are also others like women’s empowerment and confidence building that happen behind the scenes.

These benefits also don’t have to be experienced in a class, they can be obtained in the privacy of your own home, regardless of age or pant size.

As a pole fitness instructor, I can tell you that the biggest benefits are achieved on the emotional level of a woman, the outer benefits, like a slim and fit body, for example, are just the icing on the cake.

These are the biggest benefits of pole dancing:
1. Fat burning! Yes, you burn a lot of calories and a lot of fat. This happens because while pole dancing, you are challenged to use muscles that you don’t normally use in everyday life. Think about it, we don’t spend a lot of time grabbing or climbing a pole (unless you’re a firefighter, of course). Over time, you begin to strengthen these underused muscles along with the rest of your body. The additional increase in muscle mass causes you to naturally burn more calories throughout the day to maintain your newly toned physique.

2. weightloss. You may or may not lose weight depending on your body type. Pole dancing challenges the muscles so much. While you may be losing weight (fat), it may not show up on a scale right away because you’re also gaining muscle tone. Muscle weighs more than fat and therefore there may be an exchange of fat for muscle taking place within the body and the scale may not move as a side effect.

3. Self confidence building! This is a hidden secret that many women don’t talk about much. When you pole dance, you are challenged to dance in a sexy way. If you don’t feel sexy inside or if you have low self-esteem, you may not feel comfortable pole dancing at first. This is totally normal! The good news is that through continued practice, you will begin to let go of that body-hating attitude and embrace a new loving adoration of yourself while dancing. This new found sexy confidence is gained over time. The more you practice, the more confidence you will develop. Feeling sexy is a state of mind, not a body type! Even skinny girls don’t feel sexy!

4. Flexibility and Coordination. To execute most pole dance spins, you must learn balance and coordination. If you’ve always felt off balance, pole dancing will help you find the stability you’ve been looking for. Pole fitness dance requires the use of momentum. By using momentum, you must learn to control your own body weight with grace and ease. This process naturally makes you gain flexibility and coordination.

There are many more benefits of pole dancing, but really the only way to experience these things as your truth is to try pole dancing fitness. Pole fitness dancing isn’t just for strippers anymore. It doesn’t make you vulgar or disrespectful. In fact, many pole dancers have never undressed a day in their lives and never will.

Pole fitness dancing is a fun and sexy way to get in shape while building your self-confidence. You can buy your own pole dance to use in the privacy of your home if there are no pole dance classes near you.

Learning to pole dance at home is easy. So give it a try, you won’t regret it!
