Pole Dancing Videos — from Tutorials to Competition Pieces

By Susan Peach

Any pole dance fan enjoys watching videos of other dancers at play, right? Right! In fact, some of Your Pole Pal's fondest pole memories are of times spent with friends having a little "pole playtime" and recording the fun on video for later laughs, training feedback, or just to track our progress.

We all need some inspiration now and then, not to mention a break from training.

So Your Pole Pal has taken it upon herself to become your own personal pole video curator, a job she takes very seriously!

To that end, you'll find links to several categories of videos just below. 

From instructional videos to amazing pole fusion (check out that Tango pole dance!), from competition clips to some inspiring plus size pole dancers, there's something here for every pole dancer. Enjoy!
