Science of Slink: The Evidence Based Pole Podcast with Dr. Rosy Boa

Body Proportions and Pole Dance with Pole Teacher Rosy Boa


Listen Later

This week we've got a quick little bonus episode to talk about the effect that different body proportions have on pole dance: what moves are harder or easier if you have a higher or lower center of gravity? Or for shorter versus longer arms, torso and legs?

If you're interested in finding your exact center of gravity, you can use this exercise designed for physics students.

  • The Evidence-Based Pole Podcast aims to help pole dancers feel better on and off the pole by talking with experts and diving into relevant scientific research to find evidence-based insights we can apply to our pole journeys. It’s a production of Slink Through Strength, the inclusive, evidence-based online pole studio, which can be found online at slinkthroughstrength.com.
