When you think of a pole dancer, what's the first thing that comes to mind?
You probably think of very skimpy outfits and single dollar bills in a dark, loud room. Well, yes, that is one correct connotation that you can draw, but it's a misunderstood one.
Being a pole dancer takes an incredible amount of strength. There are no good pole dancers out there that just decided to hop on into it one day and picked it up right away. The amount of control you have to have over your strong muscles is more than you could probably imagine, unless you've actually given it a go for yourself.
In fact, many people take pole dancing lessons as a fun way to tone up their bodies while learning how to twirl through the air. There is so much more to pole dancing than most people think.
These three dancers from Contemporary Pole Dance Company want you to see pole dancing the way that they see it.
As they effortlessly lift their bodies high up off of the floor, it seems like there is no gravity in the room pulling them down to the floor. This is just such an awesome, new way to see an art form that hasn't had much positive attention before.
What do you think of these dancers' performance? Doesn't this look like it would be so much fun to master? I'm no dancer, but I'd definitely give a beginner class a try if I ever got the chance! Would you?
