Seems impossible, right?

Pole dancing is often associated with erotica.

The dance is, however, also a complete fitness regime that focuses on strength, flexibility, and coordination. While empowering you to be comfortable in your skin.

If you want to see a faster holistic change in your body, include a pole in your dancing workout routine.

However, you can practice your style, strength, and flexibility without a pole as we will dive deep below.

Back when I was a beginner, neither did I have enough time to join pole dancing classes, nor did I have a suitable place in my home to install a pole.

However, my passion for pole dancing kept me driving toward the goal of becoming an expert. I began practicing pole dancing at home, even without a pole.

As a successful pole dancing coach, I want to bust a myth that is acting as a barrier for people who want to work towards the dream of becoming a pole dancer.

You do not necessarily need a pole to begin practice sessions of pole dancing.

In this blog, I’ll help you learn pole dancing at home without the use of a dance pole.

Can You Learn to Pole Dance at Home Even With No Pole?

There are several pole dancing moves and workouts that can be performed at home without a pole.

Shelling out money for a pole or an expensive pole dancing class is not necessary.

There are techniques that can help you master pole dancing without spending a dime.

All you need is the comfort and privacy of your home to practice in, especially if you are nervous about the pole moves.

Motivating Yourself to Workout at Home Even Without a Dance Pole

Distractions in your mind can easily get you derailed from your daily workout routine. Here are a few simple steps that will help you stay on track with your self-motivation.

1. Remember why you began your pole journey.

Do you want to flaunt your legs in that cute dress? Get your man wild with your moves? Feel more confident about yourself? Next time you feel like quitting, just remind yourself why you started pole dancing in the first place.

2. Put on your pole wear.

When you put on your pole wear, you send a message to your brain that you are ready to work out and that you have a workout to complete. Wearing your pole outfit is half the battle won.

3. Crank up your pole workout playlist

Create a playlist for your workout sessions. This will get you in the right mood for each type of session.

4.

Set a time for a workout and stick to your routine.

Start working out at the same time every day. This will let your brain know that every day, at this time, you begin and do your workout. Your body will subconsciously start prepping for the workout ready for the right time of the day.

5.

Track your progress.

Set achievable goals and reward yourself as you cross each milestone. This releases dopamine in your brain, which will motivate you further to swing your hips and work out as you keep improving over time.

You can give yourself a reward, with your own pole, or new gear, once you reach each new level.

Ways to Improve at Pole Dancing Without a Pole

When you are starting out, you don’t need a pole. Performing complex maneuvers on the pole requires iron strength and flexibility that you can work on improving first.

As an absolute beginner, you need to first get your body ready for the pole.

Many of the dance moves needed to lift and hold your body weight require a basic level of strength and coordination. So, I advise that you first build strength in your upper body, like your arms, back, and thighs.

Here are some useful exercises for pole dancing without a pole that will get you ready for your sessions when you are truly ready for the plunge.

1. Workouts and exercises

Warm up before beginning any exercise session. It is important to increase your heart rate before any kind of dance routine [1]. The goal is to reduce muscle soreness and lower your risk of a serious injury.

2. Pole dance moves without the pole

There are many floor-work moves that don’t need a pole. Basic spins, planks, and freestyle waves can easily be perfected without a pole. Substitute the pole for a wall or a chair wherever required.

3. Yoga

Nothing improves flexibility and general fitness like yoga. It will improve your balance as you do splits and inversions. Once you get the hang of yoga, pole moves can come easy.

Consider this transferable knowledge.

4. Martial arts

Martial arts are a full-body workout. And an ideal way to increase overall mobility. Martial arts can help you understand your body’s pressure response while also strengthening your core muscles.

Martial arts involve movements like high kicks, fast bodyweight transfers, and balance with fancy footwork. The improvements you get will come in handy for your pole sessions.

5. Cardio strip aerobics

You get a moderate to intense workout out with standard aerobic training, but you can improve your body image confidence to the maximum possible level if you have the capability of doing it in your birthday suit have a try with just your heels on!

You can also notice an improvement in your cardio endurance and stamina after regular practice.

You can do aerobics in the privacy of your own home or in a class which can help your confidence reach the height of the stars.

This dance routine can give your confidence more than an extra boost compared to standard pole dancing, as having no pole forces your movements to be more about you moving comfortably in your own body than the complexity and technicality of pole dancing or other types of performance dancing.

The best results for self-improvement are never free.

However, if you pay the cost of your own comfort, once you hit the pole, you will have much better comfort in your own skin, and your newfound confidence will put you ahead of every other man or lady on the battlefield of life.

6. Chair or lap dance

This is a fun and exciting dance move that can improve your confidence that can come out as a party trick or in the bedroom. A lap dance routine can also keep your blood pressure under control.

Say goodbye to anxiety and depression forever. Chair dancing will leave you in a good mood for a long time. The confidence you can gain can improve your confidence when performing any type of regular dancing.

7. Pilates

Pilates is undoubtedly the most effective way to increase your energy, flexibility, and body strength while giving you more control over your back and limbs.

Pilates works your core and strengthens it to a level above yoga and is on par with pole dancing.

Your core will be needed for most of the heavy lifting. So, include Pilates in your daily workout routine to keep your core in top shape.

How to Prepare for a Workout?

Stretching is the best way to improve your bottom-line pole dancing technique and avoid injuries when approaching larger moves [2].

How to dance a striptease without looking funny

Night falls and the Showgirl dancer in you wakes up. And even before you have time to turn on your common sense, you already say the fatal: “Do you want me to dance a striptease for you?” He, of course, agrees. Let's lower the veil of pity over the end of this scene. It happens that each of us wants to feel like a stripper, perform a lap dance with her boyfriend and get a tip in panties. But how do you strip in a way that's really sexy, not funny (and everyone stays safe)? We share secrets!

Forget the acrobatics!

Pf, you say, it's obvious. And here it is not. You have no idea how many women have been injured by the duende. Bruises, torn ligaments, ankle injuries and even a concussion...

Let's agree: this is not a stage performance, but your goal is not to impress your boyfriend with a triple somersault, but to turn him on. First of all, it concerns stretching. Even if it seems to you that right now you will sit on the twine, this will not happen. Or it will, but it will be the last element that you completed. Yes, we know that when you went to the choreography circle in the third grade, you were the easiest to do the splits. But you're not in third grade, you're not hot and you don't want to risk your ligaments.

The same goes for any jumps (watch your head) and backbends (watch your back). In general, it is better to move more slowly and with a smaller amplitude than to go to the emergency room.

Don't do it without preparation

Any dance, even a house striptease, requires preparation and warming up. It is not necessary to think through the entire dance from the first to the last note, but you must have a concept for the dance.

What you need: the main set of movements you are going to perform and the order in which they are performed. It is better to rehearse the movements several times so that there are no surprises. At least once, you must run the dance alone in full dress, in order to foresee any accidents. So you will know, for example, that the floor is slippery here, it’s easy to stumble on the edge of the carpet, in this movement your dressing gown clings to the heel, and at this moment you need to be careful not to step on your boyfriend’s foot.

Wear clothes that are easy to take off

A common mistake beginner strippers make is wearing too many clothes. It seems to them that the longer they take it off, the more the dance will excite the partner's imagination.

And here we run into a problem. Jammed bra hooks are half the trouble, but the need, say, to pull off your jeans while slouching on the floor... Let's call it "death to the sex drive." Briefly about the wardrobe items that should be on you:

Bra. Ideally, if it has a front clasp, it will be easier to take it off, and it looks more intriguing. In fact, it is the bra that opens up incredible scope for imagination. As additional accessories, you can use a "harness" made of thin leather straps or stickers on the nipples.
Panties. It all depends on taste and physical data, but, in fact, thongs and tangas do not look as advantageous as you think, especially in some movements. Consider other options: lace shorts, briefs with a corset drawstring, or even panties with a cutout between the legs.
Stockings. You can supplement them with a belt - it will be more difficult to move with it, but the effect will be stunning.
Robe. From above you can put on a light silk dressing gown. Probably, it is not necessary to write that it is desirable that this is not the same one in which you lie on the sofa on Saturdays with a cat in one hand and a laptop in the other? And the point is not even the sexuality of a particular thing, but the fact that striptease is a surprise, a surprise, and your partner will see you in something that he has not seen before.

Let's talk about shoes separately.

Put soft heels on

On the one hand, what is a striptease without heels? They outline the foot well, tighten the calves and buttocks, but... click. And if you have linoleum in your room, then they leave depressed points.

Why do we need soft heels? First, if you do not live in a private house, then you most likely have neighbors. You know, nothing destroys romance so much as an angry aunt Valya from the third floor, who presses the bell as if she is squeezing the last drops of conscience out of you.

Secondly, when the dance is performed in a club, it's one thing, there you can hardly hear how you click, but at home the sound will be completely different.

Choose slow music

...and familiar music. You won't like it if the track suddenly stops when you haven't even untied your robe yet.

You must like this music. The ideal time is 2-3 minutes. The composition for 5 minutes will be too long, you will both get tired.

Play with your hair

Think of your hair as another of your stage props. We recommend that you pull them into a tight bun before the start of the dance, and then let your hair down. Turn your head, let him touch your curls, tickle his tips. In general, everything is in your hands. And head.

Use props, but not too much

You will need a chair to take off your stockings. Seriously, the best way to make it erotic is to put your foot on a chair, hook up the end of the stocking and pull it down.

In fact, remember the main theatrical rule: "If a gun is hanging on the stage, it will go off." No, please don't shoot anyone. The point is not to take too many props. Take one element that will complement your image.

Striptease lesson: how to make a spicy gift - Relationships

Striptease as a gift is controversial. Someone will be delighted with such a present, and someone will be shocked.

Strippers and strippers are often invited to February 23, March 8, hen parties, stag parties, birthdays, and once, in his memory, they ordered for a wedding.

“There is a negative reaction. The husband begins to be shy, because he does not know how his wife will react if behave uninhibited with the artist. Therefore, we ask that they break through the soil in advance. Or we ask you to leave the room so that they do not embarrass you with your presence. It happens that the people themselves, to whom they give, are asked to stop the dance. This was at a bachelorette party with a very moral bride. In this case, the artist can continue the dance for the public. But more often the reaction is good,” says Zhorkin.

A large proportion of couples believe that the teasing dance able to increase the degree of passion and diversify routine family life. But also here experts advise to approach carefully, and take into account the many factors: from the situation, the occasion to the current state of the relationship. The last one is perhaps the most important.

“There are troubles in family relationships — routine, ritual, adaptation. When a married couple begins to limit fantasies about each other, then such an important part of sexuality as flirting disappears. Many industries exist for due to the fact that this flirting is provided, for example, by Internet dating. That's why many women at one time were so carried away by half-dance that in their relationship novelty, mystery appeared, things connected with fantasy appeared. Usually it strengthens the couple, ”Lyakh believes.

flirting, then the reaction to the striptease of the wife or girl is likely to be positive, and she will achieve the desired effect. And if such an important component is no longer there, a woman runs the risk of causing discontent or other negative emotions that before this was restrained, the psychologist warns.

As strip dance choreographer Marina Ignatenko said, most often women apply for lessons when they find out that a man is looking “on the side” or go to strip bars. And then, having learned the strip, they draw attention to myself.

“A woman becomes more self-confident, her gait becomes more graceful. A woman begins to change from the inside, they begin to look at her differently, her man feels it, thinks what has changed in her and thinks about her, the choreographer says.

If you want to dance a striptease, she advises you to take at least a few lessons dancers to master the basic set of movements, and then act with an eye on their own opportunities and benefits. So, if a girl has flexibility, then be sure use twine and braces. And if a woman has long beautiful hair, then dance it out.

In general, the basic set of strip dance elements is simple - "kitty", backbends, stretching, half twine (twine for those who can afford it), half-bridge, touching yourself. Basically, almost anyone can do it.

But we must remember that home striptease is a small show, therefore, appropriate attire is important (you can buy a role-playing costume in a sex shop or just put on a beautiful set of underwear and stockings), manicure, pedicure, makeup, hairstyle.

Especially for Sibnet.ru readers, the choreographer told how to prepare for home striptease on her own, and showed the basic movements. We start with a warm-up and train plasticity.

According to Ignatenko, striptease is impossible without heels. Ideally, you need to stand on strips - shoes with a platform that professional women use. If there are no similar shoes and you don’t want to buy specially, you can do without a platform, but heels are required, and as high as possible.
