In this episode we chat with Lauren Elise, pole dance instructor, performer and choreographer about all things pole dance.

We talk about how the sport has evolved in recent years, its ties to strip clubs, what to expect from your first pole class and our advice on how to get started.

We also branch into a wider conversation around stripping and sex work.

(Note: Tara had a Zoom malfunction half way through, so apologies for any quality issues)

This episode is best served with wine + an open mind.
