Can pole dancing be nonsexual?

Pole dancing has always existed in multiple forms, even though its roots is sex work and sensual performance. Our mission is to make pole inclusive, expressive, athletic and accessible.
Can I pole dance if I am overweight?

What are the different types of aerial fitness?
Aerial fitness spans several apparatuses, each offering its own blend of strength, artistry, and creative expression. The primary ones include aerial hoop (lyra), pole fitness/dancing, and aerial silks. Each one builds upper body and core strength and increases mobility.
What are the benefits of aerial fitness?
Aerial fitness blends strength, flexibility/mobility, mindfullness and creative expression while suspended in the air. It offers both physical and mental health benefits. The physical benefits include engaging multiple muscle groups at once and improved stamina through sequences and holds. Suspended movement also allows deeper stretching with less strain. Because the apparatus supports part of your weight, aerial fitness reduces joint strain while inversions and supported hangs help decompress the spine and relieve tension. The combination of mindful movement and supported poses promotes relaxation and reduces stress.
Can you lose weight with aerial fitness?
Aerial fitness can contribute to weight loss by increasing calorie burn, building muscle, boosting metabolism, and reducing stress. All of which play a sustainable role in weight management.
What’s the best age to start aerial fitness?
Adults can start aerial fitness at ANY age. It is accessible to anyone regardless of age, body shape, size and gender.
Is aerial fitness hard to learn?
Aerial fitness is challenging but absolutely learnable for beginners, even with zero strength. The difficulty comes from learning to use your body in new ways, not from needing to be strong before you start.
What is a Lyra class?
Lyra class (aka aerial hoop) is an aerial arts class where students train on a suspended metal hoop. It builds and blends strength, flexibility and artistry while teaching students to create beautiful shapes, transitions and spins in the air.
What to wear to a Lyra Class?
For Lyra class, students should wear leggings that cover the back of your knees, and a fitted top (tank, tee, or sports bra) that covers your torso. Do not wear jewelry, zippers, or anything that can snag the hoop. Lyra is typically done barefoot or in socks.
What to expect a Lyra class?
Lyra class will start with a full body warm up plus strength building exercises to prepare your core, shoulders and grip. You will learn how to grip the hoop, how to mount it safely and how to feel secure as you start working off the ground. Beginner classes focus on building strength, balance and coordination before progressing to more advanced skills.
What should I wear to a dance class?
Wear something that makes you feel comfortable, confident and moves easily. You can be barefoot, wear socks, or wear heels. Knee pads are recommended for most classes.
Is burlesque-style dancing a good workout?

What is a chair dancing class?
Chair dancing class is a choreography-based workout that uses a chair as a prop. It is both fitness-focused and sensual choreography. The chair becomes part of the movement, support and expression.
What type of training improves flexibility?

Can a very inflexible person become flexible?
Anyone, no matter how stiff, can improve their flexibility with the right approach. Flexibility can vary widely between individuals but always improves with consistent stretching and mobility work.
What is a conditioning class?
A conditioning class is a fitness class designed to build strength, endurance, mobility and overall physical preparedness through targeted exercise. There is a focus on training muscles and systems that make all other movement safer, stronger and more efficient. It provides a foundation that supports every other skill.
What is conditioning vs cardio
Although used interchangeably, cardio and conditioning are NOT the same thing. Cardio focuses on improving the heart, lungs and aerobic system, whereas conditioning focuses on work capacity, intensity tolerance and the ability to perform repeated efforts. Conditioning often targets the anaerobic system, with short bursts of high-intensity work like intervals, circuits, etc.
Does conditioning build strength?
Conditioning can improve many aspects of strength, especially muscular endurance and work capacity. Conditioning also builds stability and mobility and provides targeted improvement for aerial fitness.
