    Hey

    I do poledancing (not in a club!), and I'm looking to incorporate that into a burlesque routine. getting poledancing lessons and adding a burlesquey touch into it may be a way to go?

    There are several wonderful pole dancers I know of who have incorporated burlesque into their routines and also vice versa. Check out Miss Glory Pearl , she has a fabulous show where she is a pole dancing granny!

    Ive been pole dancing for a while now and will be incoprating that into my burlesque . Imagine climbing up the pole and taking of layers and you slowly slide down. hehe.

    My hubby is going to make me a portable pole with a base so thatI can use it at different places!

    Violet,

    I've been dying to have a go at this too, after seeing P!nk on tour last year. I scooted out some FB groups, heres one Pheonix. Hope that helps a bit. It seems a really hard thing to get into in the UK, especially in a small town like ours.

    I went to a pole dancing class yesterday and gave everyone at work a good laugh today with my stiff and graceless moving today - I didn't expect it to be quite so strenuous!

    Green top do good trapeze classes either on a weekday evening or about once a month on a weekend. The class timetable is here:
