Pole dance as exercise
Pole dancing has gained popularity as a form exercise, with increased awareness the benefits to general strength and fitness. This form exercise increases core and general body strength by using the body itself as resistance, while toning the body as a whole.
Pole dancing as an exercise is very similar to Mallakhamb, an Indian men's sport with no erotic component, but there is no evidence a link.
A growing number men are incorporating pole dancing into their fitness programmes. In Australia, the UK and the US, dance studios are beginning to fer classes just for men. And in China, 2007's National Pole Dancing competition was won by a man. Dance instructor Zhang Peng, 23, beat a host women dancers to the top prize.
