Have you ever taken pole dance work-out classes??

For the past month, I've been attending pole fitness classes. I have a dancing background; mainly country, swing, and ballroom. I LOVE this pole fitness! Have any of you ladies tried this??

Now, I know what comes across when people hear "pole dance" They think slutty and stripping. However, it's a GREAT work out and so much fun and it really doesn't have to be slutty at all. It's a very artistic. AND it's an amazing workout. I am toning muscles that I didn't even know I had ha ha ha.

For the ladies (like myself) who hate the treadmill, track, and elliptical machines, I would highly recommend pole fitness! The classes I am taking have women of ALL sizes and ages and we all have become fast friends.

Just an idea for you ladies who need a switch up in their work out routine! :-)

I had planned to do this back when I thought I was getting married..(that and a few other things lol)

I'd still like to find the time to work it in and learn to work it!

What's a good dvd for something like this? Maybe not pole dancing, but the erotic dance/exercise videos? I've looked at Carmen Electric's and Flirty Girl Fitness, but they got some bad reviews. Any ideas?

I had planned on doing this with a friend. I was sooooooo excited about it, until my boyfriend strongly objected, calling it inappropriate and disrespectful so it never happened. Meh.

I had a really skeptical attitude toward pole dancing as well before I started. But I feel like it's okay because I'm not doing it for money or stripping. It's an all-female class and just a fun atmosphere. And it's a GREAT work out for someone who hates the treadmill! (ME!)

A friend of mine did pole dancing classes for a while, she said it was great for toning her legs, she asked me to go along with her but at the time I was heavily into Ballroom dancing and couldn't afford it.
