I am plus size wanting to start pole dancing?

[Anonymous]

I have seen videos of how women transformed their bodies and lost so much weight doing pole dancing! Any tips? Let me know if you have any experiences?

It's an amazing exercise. My wife is into it (not a stripper!). She used to be a ballet dancer and watched a pole dancer one time and fell in love with it to the point of taking classes.

Just starting with basic spins like fireman and chair spin can be a serious upper body workout when you're not used to it.

Some inspiration: serious pole dancers are superhuman athletes. Oona Kivela is my wife's favorite along with mine:

Sure, feel free to chat me up for more specific questions.
So poledance is definitely a sport so it should be possible to loose weight with it. You are building muscles though in the process thats unavoidable. There are nearly all selfweight centered activities so keep in mind that the start will probably be harder. Progress should on the other hand be more drastical I can immagine.
For equipment it gets complicated. You need something at home or you have a place to go to?
Also you have a trainer or you try on your own?
I can recomend you trying to start poledance. Its so much fun and a great way to see progress in your own abilities. Doing it in a group may also help as you get ideas together what to try and may help each other with different parts.

Not trying to be a dick, but make sure you are eating clean healthy food before you even consider anything else. Diet is 80% of the equation.




If you eat a bunch of junk food you will never get the results you want
