Is this to go with the soft porn music videos they show back to back at gyms?

themoon66 · 20/04/2007 19:19

Seriously... I think you would need high heels wouldn't you? Plus, of course, a g-string with dimante trim. Maybe a couple of nipple tassels for cover?

How much are they paying you?

Just wear jogging bottoms and top like you would for a normal gym class with trainers. Its hard work but great fun!

southeastastra · 20/04/2007 20:41

let us know how you get on!

Friend did this and she was told to have bare legs - it's to do with your legs needing to stick to the pole - you would just slide down if you had trousers on

She was also supposed to wear heels...

Said it was loads of fun and a good workout.

I did a course a couple of months ago and really enjoyed it. It was a bit embarrassing at first and there was a lot of giggling and self-consciousness, but once we got used to it it was great!

You need to wear shorts so you can use your legs to grip the pole, but they don't have to be hotpants - mid-thigh should be fine.

Good luck and enjoy!

Oh and we were told to wear trainers - it seems to be up to the individual gym!

I did a course and wore cycle pants and boots. You need to be able to grip the pole, so bare upper legs and leather boots are perfect. It's a very hard workout, and be prepared for lots of your friends husbands to make inappropriate comments! (One of mine sent me some nipple tassles, the perv. I ebayed them immediately).

did you enjoy it artfishy?

It was great fun. I would have done the intermediate but they didn't do it in my location.

It's suprisingly hard though! Climbing up a pole just using your leg muscles is tricky. Hanging yourself upside down by your thighs (and looking sexy) is even harder!

Have fun!

it was a bit of fun in private, no - one watchin, 14 women and a teacher. You are clearly so up your own arse that it certainly wouldn't be for you as an old trout. You go back to reading yor boden brochure, and leave the laughs to others.

Equality!!?? what the f*ks that, men are no way equal to me...maybe you don't feel that way tho.
