"You trainers always make everything look so easy & perfect".
A saying we often hear. But what is it about pole movement, whether spin or trick, that makes it look so perfect and effortless? Here are a few small but crucial tips:
Beginning & end of the movement
Always be aware of where a spin or trick begins & ends and place accents there. Always execute the move completely without shortening it. By pausing briefly in the last position of the move or in the desired trick, you strengthen the effect and dance your movements more clearly.
Posture
An upright and proud posture is crucial. It's not just about a straight back, but the posture of your whole body, including your head. Try to point your head forward and avoid looking at the floor.
Point Point Point
And even if you can no longer hear the word: Beautiful lines are based on stretched knees and feet. Try to develop a higher awareness of your body and work on your tension. Are your knees extended and your feet in point, or are they perhaps not quite?

Pole training at home
There are also poles for home, which can be conveniently clamped between the floor & ceiling (without any screws). However, the purchase of your own pole needs to be considered carefully, as they cost between CHF 250.- and 350.- – but they will last a pole’s lifetime. We recommend to buy only poles from a trustworthy manufacturer, because we would like to avoid any “pole-fails”. Here you can find the X-Poles for your training at home.
