Pole Fitness and Pole Dancing can help people suffering from Mental Health issues

UK Active and Leeds University have conducted a  study as to how exercise can give a positive benefit and increase the general well being of students who are less active.

Not only can pole help with flexibility, strengthening, and conditioning. It can have a huge impact on the general wellbeing of students suffering from mental health issues

Exercise increases the serotonin levels in the bloodstream therefore giving that feel good feeling, boosts your mood and overall sense of well-being. It can also improve your appetite and sleep cycles, which are often negatively affected by depression.

Regular classes also help balance your body's levels of stress hormones such as adrenaline.

Student Instructor Testimonial Crawley Pole Passion Worth - Melissa Fish

My name is Melissa Fish and I'm 27 years old.
I love to attend Pole Passion at Crawley Worth under my instructor Kay Penney

I work as an office administrator although I'm currently on maternity leave. I started pole as I was looking for a way to get fit and build strength and I was always terrible going to the gym. I love pole because not only does it keep me fit and build strength but it also gives me confidence that I'd lost over time.
After just giving birth I know it will build confidence I've lost while being pregnant.
You also meet some amazing people and build friendships with other students you cheer each other along when you get a move you've been working on.

A big positive I get out of pole is that not only are you keeping fit, you achieve something new each week and that also keeps me going. I was worried about doing it first as I thought I wouldn't be able to do it and that I'd be too weak for it but you work at your own pace and the instructors will always make sure you achieve your goals.

When I first told my family that I did pole I got mixed reactions, they called it pole dancing all the time but once you explain that you don't actually dance it's about fitness and strength etc they are more accepting of it and think it's amazing that I can do well at it and enjoy it.
