If you are looking to buy a home pole dancing pole, there are a few things to bear in mind before you take the plunge.
Consider the 3 P’s:
Portable or permanent
Some people are happy to make a dancing pole a permanent feature in their house. If you want the extra security of knowing your pole is screwed into a ceiling beam, and are not shy to have guests know about your hobby, then this option is for you.
The electra pole can be screwed into a ceiling joist for security.
If you want the flexibility of being able to dismantle your pole, or take it to a friends house then a portable pole may be best.
With the X-pole you don’t have to compromise on stability either, and it comes free with a carry bag to make moving the pole extra easy.
Pole material
There has been much debate on which pole material is best for learning how to pole dance.
Some believe that if you can dance on a steel pole you can dance on any pole. Others prefer the extra grip a chrome coated pole can provide.

Price
There are poles available for most budgets starting from £50 right up to £500 for free standing poles with integrated stages!
Some of the lower end poles are just not up to the pressure pole dancing puts on them. For a budget option that doesn’t compromise on safety try the My Sexy Little pole.
If you want a top quality pole without breaking the bank try the X-Pole sport.
If you would like to pole dance at home you will need to grab yourself a new x pole. They truly are the very best.
