anyone done pole dancing classes for fitness?

[prettypurpledaisy]

friends from work are starting on monday, i have agreed to go but they are both young and slim i am neither and am worried i will be fat frump in corner. also what does one wear?

went to a one off lesson - am not thin and fit and was also really worried but it was brilliant - never ached so much the next day so be warned!!

We did ours in a lap dancing club which was an experience.

I wore shorts (very baggy ones) and a t-shirt - you need to have skin contact with the pole. And you have to wear heels - my lesson had an element of lap dancing in too and it was this that finally taught me to walk in heels after 33 years!

Have a great time and enjoy yourself!

thanks loler not sure i have either shorts or heels will look in the dark recesses of my wardrobe. not sure if i am being taken because i am a laugh or for them to laugh at but that may be my paranoia

The only heels I had were the ones I wore to my wedding - hadn't seen day light for 10 years! The shorts were my dh's!

have located heels just shorts are a problem have recently turned out wardrobe so nothing left that i hadn't worn in last 10 years. sadly did same with dh's wardrobe too so 3/4 length trouser rolled up?

How did it go?

No but I hear you get quite a good cardio workout from walking up and down outside Kings Cross of a night-time

Seriously, why must everything be sexualised?

fantastic felt a bit silly to start with as feel as sexy as a slug!! ache a lot today but will go again next week and take it from there. need to buy shorts and heels this week!

Be warned this is very addictive I just bought a pole and put it in my garage.Great fun but hard at first. Oh the pain..... after the first session could hardly walk
