Depends. How much upper body and core strength do you have? Do you have a pole at home or regular access to a pole that you can practice on? Are you taking a pole class? Do you go on stage often at your club?





^^I was just going to ask the same thing?
What is your experience, if any, with the pole?





Pole is a full body thing but esp requires strong upper body & core, as Shanna mentioned. Even light training w/ free wgts will help, as well as pushups/situps/etc. I've also heard many girls recommend yoga for increasing both strength & flexibility.
Most important -- don't rush it. It's easy enough to hurt yourself even when you're physically strong & know what you're doing. (I know bc I've been 'that guy')

Ok thanks I dnt have much Experience with the pole just yet but from the looks of it I got a long way to go lol
It took me about a month, practicing 3-4 days a week at work.



It took me around a month and a half to be able to climb the pole and do simple tricks. It took me over eight months to strengthen up my body enough to stop bruising.
Like Anielia said, take it slow. Rushing can lead to unwanted injury and won't help you build the muscle that you will need in order to pole. I recommend working out outside of work to build your muscle as well, I noticed it got easier for me once I started doing strengthening exercises regularly (my pull up bar at home is my best friend).
FWIW, outside of urban or otherwise stage-centric clubs, pole tricks are totally not necessary to make money, so I wouldn't worry about not being able to climb or do any tricks. A few years in and I still just use the pole as something to lean on or hold on to while coming up.
What is it like to have kids an work as. A dancer do people judge you cause you have kids an dance do your kids still look at you the same?do relationships change as being a dancer?
^Again, it depends. Dancing doesn't have a uniform effect on all women that become strippers. Some have supportive partners, others don't. Some are judged based on the company they keep, some hide their dancing so it's a non-issue, others have very open social circles and families. Some kids know their mothers dance, some don't, and the reactions are varied. For many, dancing is just a job and doesn't change their lives much more than any other job would, while others get sucked into the stereotypical lifestyle. Long story short: strippers are individuals and no one can predict how dancing will affect your life.
Thanks!!!!




Personally, it took me six months to get up a pole. About a month into dancing, I got frustrated that I couldn't do pole tricks like some of the better paid girls (that I realized later had very little to do with their pole abilities) so I started doing push ups to build up upper body strength and would test my strength by trying to climb once every week or two when it was dead. If I had worked harder on upper body, plus worked on my core and done at least a tiny bit for my legs, I'm confident I would have gotten up it a lot faster. It really does vary a lot from person to person, and isn't all that relevant unless you work at a very pole oriented club. Even at my first club, which had five poles on the main stage plus a satellite and was pretty stage oriented, pole tricks were the exception rather than the norm.
Exotic dancing is like any other job.If you work in an office, you wear dress shoes and a suit.If you work in a restaraunt, you wear skid resistant shoes and a uniform.If you work in a strip club, you wear 7" stilettos and lycra g-strings.



Dancing on and off for 6 years and I still can't climb the pole lol I mean, I can, it just doesn't look pretty. I don't need to pole though because I interact pretty heavily with my tippers.
I'm open about what I do, my kids are too little to know or care and I figure they'll shrug it off when they figure it out. Had four relationships since starting dancing. Two were insecure and jealous, one couldn't handle it at all because he thought I was a hooker, and the last (current) legitimately gets it and is happy I do what I love and am good at. Friends and family support me and are happy I'm taking care of shit all by myself and take care of my kids. If anyone else judges me I don't know about it and don't care.
