Ever had the urge to grab a random post and lose yourself? Here are some exciting pole moves you can attempt (at your own risk). In no time, everyone will be in awe of your pole prowess.
1 DREAMGIRL
Very easy
Grip the pole and prop yourself up. Hold the pole with your thighs, keeping your legs at 90° and 45°. Lean back.
Optional: Break into a rendition of “And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going.”
2 CROSS-ANKLE RELEASE
Easy
Grip the pole, then raise your legs, crossing your ankles such that your thighs can hold on to the pole. Say a little prayer and let go, ending with your hands above your head.
3 KNEE HOLD
Intermediate
Prop yourself up, then hook one leg around the pole. Hold your other knee against the pole for support. Release your hands as if attempting to fly.
4 JADE
Difficult
Prop yourself up, then point your legs vertically on one side of the pole. Once comfortable (if that’s possible), part your legs in an upside-down front-split, gripping the pole with your waist and front leg.
