pole fitness

Spin-based strength sport

Pole fitness is a form of exercise combining dance, acrobatics, and strength training performed on a vertical pole.

It developed from pole dancing but emphasizes athletic conditioning over eroticism, though the movements overlap considerably.

Classes teach spins, climbs, and inversions that build upper body and core strength: I've been doing pole fitness for six months and my arms have never been stronger.
