Pole Yoga Vs. Pole Dance

(This is a revised version of the first blog post on this site) 

Pole Yoga is the newest form of Pole and Yoga Fitness 

Pole Dancing has been the most common form of Pole Fitness in America for the last 20 years.

In the 1920’s to the  “Hootchie Coochie” Belly Dancers birthed modern day pole. The Hootchie Coochie dance was a sensuous dance involving movement of the hips typically done by middle eastern women, hence the term “exotic dancer.”

In the 1920’s the dancers began using the tent poles in sideshows to lure in customers.

It wasn’t until the 1980’s that the pole moved from tents to the bar, and was combined with burlesque dancing.

In the 90’s Fawnia Mondey created the first pole training video to use the pole in fitness exercises. Since the introduction into the fitness world, the pole has become a relevant fitness tool for woman across the globe.

Since those first training videos, Pole dancing has become a popular form of recreational and competitive sport.

Polistic Plus Pole Yoga has taken the Pole from the strip club to the yoga studio , to the bedroom.

What is Yoga? Yoga is a group of physical, mental and spiritual practices that originated in India.

The term yoga has been synonymous with its asanas (postures) or as a form of exercise.

Swami Vivekananda was the first yogi to advocate Yoga in America in the late 1800’s. In the 1920’s western medical researchers began studying yoga as a science. There were periods of of criticism and paranoia against Yoga in America. In the 60’s yoga peeked in the United States until the 80’s.

Dean Ornish, a follower of Swami Satchidananda connected yoga to heart health, and legitimized yoga as purely physical exercise outside of esotericism circles, unconnected to any religion.

Pole Yoga incorporates yoga asanas with the pole.

In Pole Dance and Pole Fitness the poler uses their skin to attach to the pole for tricks and moves. Therefore, the poler is left wearing little clothing.
