What To Wear For Pole Dancing

Emily Ford, a pole dance instructor at the Factory fitness centre in London, explains how to pick the right clothes for pole dancing classes.

Top Tips

  • You can wear longer trousers as a beginner, but you'll need shorts in order to grip the pole with your legs in more advanced moves.
  • Choose shorts with a decent amount of coverage and a top that you'll stay contained in.
  • Tie your hair back and don't wear any rings or other jewellery as they may catch on or scratch the pole.
