Pole Dance DVD Top Picks

For many people, watching a pole dance DVD is a great way to learn, either as a primary method or as a supplement to group or private classes.

In fact, I highly recommend using pole dancing DVDs at home in addition to taking classes (assuming you also have a pole dancing pole at home, of course!)

Why? Because it's a great way to supplement your once a week in-class experience so you don't forget what you're learning.

It's also a great motivator and a way to get in some extra workouts. After all, it's always easier to practice along with a teacher in the room, even if she's only on your TV or computer screen.

Remember, if you want to progress with your pole dancing, you'll need to work out more than once a week. Doing so will make sure you get stronger and fitter to prepare for all those advanced tricks!

Here are some of my personal favourite DVD picks:

For more options, be sure to check out these pole dancing DVD reviews written for pole dancers by pole dancers. They'll help you select one that's right for you!

My all time favourite pole dance DVD is the Art of Pole set from Jamilla Deville. And judging by the reviews on that page from other users, it gets top marks all around. Highly recommended!

And of course I'd be remiss if I didn't mention this set of Pole Dancing Fitness DVDs. While not intended to teach specific moves, these 3 DVDs can help improve your overall pole fitness. With a separate focus on cardio, strength, and flexibility, each DVD targets one aspect of conditioning that you'll need as you work towards your pole dancing goals.

Here are some more benefits of learning from DVDs:

• A pole dance DVD is an affordable choice. At $15-$35 per DVD, you get a lot of bang for your buck. Most instructional DVDs will demonstrate 12-20 moves for about the same price as one hour of group classes.
• Convenience. If you work crazy shifts, have small children, or have a lot of commitments that make it hard for you to attend a 6 or 8 week session of classes at the same time every week, using DVDs allows you to work pole dancing into your busy life when you have the time.
• Unlimited practice and review time. With group or private classes, the clock is always ticking. You have only so much time to learn and practice. With a pole dance DVD you are free to return to those parts you need to review over and over again.

To be fair, not everyone enjoys learning from DVDs.

The main disadvantage of course, is that in order to practice effectively, you will need your own dance pole for dancing at home.

Good quality equipment isn't cheap, so many women prefer to take a class or two first to be sure they really enjoy the sport before investing in their own dance pole.

You'll also need enough space to install and safely use your pole at home.

But if you've decided you really enjoy this form of fitness, there's nothing like a dance pole smack in the middle of your living room to give you the motivation to work out every day!
