Pole Dancing Manuals & Books

By Susan Peach

Can a Book Really Teach Me To Pole Dance?

YES! A pole dancing manual is actually a great way to learn in the comfort of your own home, and it's a very inexpensive choice.

Books make an excellent supplement to your in-class lessons or DVD library, and many people find they do quite well using only illustrated pole dance manuals or e-books.

In fact, if there are no classes near you, studying a good manual or two is a great way to get started with this form of dance.

While there are not as many pole dancing manuals available as there are DVDs, there are a couple of good ones that Your Pole Pal recommends for those wanting to try this method.

Suggested Pole Dancing Books

Pole Essentials by Goddess Star Monroe is an illustrated pole dancing book, now available on Amazon.

It's packed with photos, easy to follow instructions, additional tips, and even space for your own notes. Pole Essentials is a truly practical workbook that you'll want to have by your side as you learn.

This beautifully photographed pole dancing manual is a complete guide for the beginner to advanced student. It's also an excellent teaching resource for instructors, as it breaks down the moves and illustrates each one, so you can better explain them to your students.

More Than Just A Picture Book

Gorgeous photos aren't all you get in this book. You'll get detailed instructions that actually teach you all the moves that are illustrated in the book - over 70 of them - from basic moves to advanced tricks.

Just one of over 70 tricks you'll learn in Pole Essentials!

In addition to showing and describing some amazing pole dancing moves, the lovely Ms. Monroe (pictured at left) also includes a section on body principles.

These are simple but very helpful tips that will bring greater awareness to your practice, helping you look and feel more graceful, and reduce your potential for injuries.

Also included is a short list of "tricks and tips" to help you get the most out of your workout. These include suggestions for suitable clothing, a recommended practice plan, and what to expect as you work through the inevitable bumps and bruises that most new students experience.

While DVDs are excellent for getting the live action angle on pole dancing moves, an illustrated pole dancing manual like this one is a perfect supplement to your training.

It allows you to really take your time, read all the details and nuances, and study still shots so you can get a better feel for where everything goes, and what your body positioning should be.

Be Inspired!

In addition to detailed instructions on how to perform each move, Ms. Monroe has also included her own notes to help you with your practice.

There are also inspiring stories from some of today's top dancers, teachers and performers.

Plus, a juicy resource section will help you find your way if you're looking for additional information on anything pole-related.

There's even a fun quiz to help you discover your own "pole personality!"

One final thing that's quite unique about this book of pole dancing moves is that there's space on each page for you to jot down your own notes, thoughts, questions, or perhaps even doodle if you're a real right brainer!

This book will quickly become a journal of your own personal journey...something you will treasure for years to come as you look back on where your vertical adventure started...and where it has taken you since then.
