The most portable pole in the world RPole Fitness UK

Rpole are pleased to announce the arrival of the spinning lightweight portable pole

Rpole already gaining credibility in the vast industry of Pole dance and fitness poles are set to launch their most popular pole to date well, popular as in interest!!

The 42 RPole spinning version of the already most popular light weight travel pole

The RPole famous for its portability and ability to be put anywhere - Ben Nevis, sports halls with high ceilings, town halls with shiny floors, parks, restaurants, beaches and roads, Swimming pools, Caribbean seas, boats, tops of castles, cellars and im sure many more unusual places still to come!!

So we explore the world of spinny pole verses the staic pole??

We first created the world of competitions way back in 2004 at that stage there was just one pole (50mm static) here in the UK that is all we had!! but by integrating the two poles (38mm populating Australia at that time)

As you continue your adventures in pole dancing, you may start to notice that some dancers are using static (stationary) poles and some are using spinning ("spinny") poles.  If you are purchasing a pole for your home, it may be best to purchase a pole with both options so that you can switch between them.  Each has its own pros and cons, and each dancer usually has a preference.  You may notice that most competitions with two poles have one static and one spinning, as different tricks work better on static or spinning poles.

Most (although not all) people learn first on a static pole.  It helps us develop those lovely callouses on our hands and gain the functional strength required for pole dancing in general.  Dancing on a spinning pole may appear to a better idea for keeping the skin on our hands, but requires a different kind of strength, better grip and a lot more control.  A spinning pole can also get you twirling a lot faster than you're used to, causing dizziness and motion sickness.  We suggest starting off slowly.  If you tend to get dizzy, try focusing on your pole or a non-moving body part.

Pole dancing in general requires a lot of core strength.  Although it is a total body workout, many of us believe that it is core first, lower body second and upper body third, in order of "strength importance."  When you move from static to spinning pole, the upper body strength becomes a little more important.  Many dancers also rely on grip aids (Mighty Grip, iTac2, patent leather boots, etc.) to help stick them to the pole.

There has been some debate about whether dancing on a spinning pole is easier than a static pole.  We don't believe so.  Both require an amazing amount of strength and coordination -- just in slightly different ways.  Is dancing on a spinning pole considered "cheating?"  Absolutely not.  In fact, it may give you a whole new appreciation for the sport.

Which do you prefer -- static or spinning pole?  And why?  We love hearing your pole dancing stories!

History of UK Pole Sport and Exercise

The history of UK pole sport and exercise extends  back only from early 21st century In 2001 Pole Passion pioneered the way creating exercise programmes on and around the vertical bar,  by its founder Kay Penney Accredited by government backing and the FIA Fitness Industry Association in 2008 was a huge leap forward for the mainly female dominated sport - it was always going to be a push for society and authorities to accept it but we did it and it is now here to stay

Then there were only 50mm grip diameter poles semi-permanent one length poles now we see the introduction of 38mm introduced by RPole into the UK in 2009
Later followed by 45mm and now 42mm which is becoming hugely more popular

Now with pole exercise flourishing worldwide we can identify that social change and acceptance has been a minor part of its popularity and development - this we believe has been hugely supported by the Miss Pole Dance  UK and World Pole  Dance championships - created in 2004
www.misspoledance-uk.com
www.worldpoledance.com

A platform to educate society allowing a public stage for performers promoting the acrobatic talents for the first time for all the public to attend
In the early days the sport was always considered an over 18,s game however with again its popularity and accredited instructor training programmes and. Format it is now being introduced for children too

Pole Passion still only encourage over 16,s as social change continues to develop over the years but who knows in the next 10 years these mini athletes will be ambassadors for our sport we are sure
