Being a dancer for so long has introduced me to almost every style of dance. I first became intrigued with pole dance through social media.
Melissa
Don't hesitate to give it a try—you don't have to be a specific size, shape, or fitness level to slink around the pole! You will be amazed how quickly your body will adapt, as everytime you rotate around the pole you are building incremental strength!
