pole dancing?

Lindsay22 Posts: 129 Joined: 2004/12/09	2006/02/07, 04:12 PM I just signed up for a POLE DANCING class. (yes, its an exercise class!!) It starts in March, and runs for 10 weeks. I have heard such good things about it; how its great for strength and toning. Could anyone offer anything else in regards to this class??

However, I am incredibly intrigued!:big_smile::big_smile::big_smile: I have been 'aquainted' with an exotic dancer or two and from what I heard, it's not easy. I'm sure it'll do wonders for your figure if you stick with it. -------------- --JBennett "I've up-ed my intensity.... now up yours!" "Pain is only weakness leaving the body."

Then again, I got credit for massage therapy as a gym credit over here, so that shows what our phys ed department is like. j/k Menace- I could see how that might motivate you to pull heavy. -------------- Iron and chalk.

When I was in my early twenties I shared a flat in south St. Louis with my brother, and the two girls that lived downstairs from us were both pole dancers for a living. I still to this day have not met any two girls in better shape. The End! -------------- Seize the day!
