Pole Dancing Fellowship in Asia

Pole Dancing Fellowship in Asia

The growth of pole dancing in Asia has been phenomenal to say the least. It has exploded into even what used to be deemed as countries with conservative cultures. Pole dancing studios are sprouting up everywhere and many exercise studios are scrambling to include it as part of their service offerings as well.

And of course, little Singapore has also brought it out of the shady nightclubs into the National Day Parade. This is a happy development for all polers in Asia. Together with the power of technology, many have found beautiful friendships and bonded over the lamentations of bruises and stereotypical mindsets they have to fend off especially with Asian culture as it is.

We have also seen Pole Dancing Congress and high quality pole competitions taking place all over in Asia like never before. In fact, it has even seeped its way into the cultural scenes in Singapore with its recent appearance in geitai (shows put up by the Chinese during Hungry Ghost Festival to entertain and appease the spirits that roam the earth during this period) performances. Unbelievable but true.

I of course, had the privilege too to make friends with some of my Asian counterparts. Studio owners and pole students alike. One of them would be Viva Vertical in Malaysia. Brave girls who started their studio in a conservative Muslim country. We need more courageous women like that to make a stand.

If you are involved in the pole community in one way or another and we are not yet acquainted, please come and say hi to me!

All the best my Asian pole mates, the only way is up from here. Literally! LOL

Having a bad day?

Melt into that oh so delicious pole bend if I were you!

I just love working out on the pole. It just erodes the bad day out of my system.

All you need is to grab that pole, close your eyes and simply relish the slow descend to Mother Earth.

Feel that workout on your legs, your arms and your back and that trusting feeling as the pole guides you down to the ground.

Allowing the back to land one vertebrate at a time as you silently thank god for that beautiful pole you are clasping in your hand.

And as your legs take its time to join the rest of your body in one straight plane, exhale the last remnants of the bad day out of your system.

Get up knowing that you are getting up to a brand new rest of the day and nothing and nobody gonna get you again.

Go kick some ass woman!

Singapore National Day Parade embraces Pole Dancing

descending angel

I am thrilled, together with the rest of the polers all over the world that pole dancing has finally made its much-due appearance in a highly significant setting. You would have to agree with me that a nation’s national day parade has to be one of the best place possible for pole dancing to receive its proper recognition.

And aren’t I so proud that my nation, this little island that is just a modest dot on the world map have stepped it up and decided to celebrate pole dancing for its goodness. And kudos to Acro Polates for all their hard work to make this possible.

This truly, is a great highlight and most definite acknowledgement to polers all over the world. Yes, you are being recognised, yes, you are being heard. Let us all keep up the good work and strive towards great fitness, feel good endorphins and more celebration on womanhood on our favourite pole!

Thank you Singapore, you had made this the best national day parade ever for me and many others!

Miss Pole Dance UK, A Misunderstood Affair

http://www.thelondonpaper.com/cs/Satellite/london/news/article/1157160225567?packedargs=suffix=ArticleController

If all the pole dancing you have ever been associated with are doughy images you have seen on movies and scantily clad singers in their music videos, you will probably be part of the “what the hell, we just cleaned it up!” team at King Cross. Our most profound respect if the above mentioned is true but you still find pole dancing a cool and admirable activity. Pole dancing have been penetrating country after country faster than you can say ‘Oh wow’ during the last few years.

Countless women are embracing it and even more are getting better at their pole moves/tricks with their OWN poles even as I speak. And yet, we are still confronted by individuals and groups belonging to the dinosaur age, refusing to embrace what have been a healthy does of self esteem to women all over the world, insisting that it is just sleaze, only sleaze and nothing else.

This is a terrible shame. It is just like people who insists that yoga are for weirdos and only for people who have nothing better to do than to bend themselves into odd shapes and positions. Never mind that history has proven its enormous benefits.

They shut their eyes, cover their ears, shake their heads, run away shrieking that it is bad, bad and bad.

Nothing else matters.

*plenty of eye rolling*

Oh well, suit yourself. I think it’s hard to climb or swing the pole anyway if you are a dinosaur.
