Uncovered- For Pole Dancers

Yes, you read right! You can go on a holiday just to POLE DANCE! Pole camps are so much fun, they add variety to your training, give you an opportunity to meet new polers and of course, have a HOLIDAY! 

In episode 53, we uncovered different types of training options for pole dancers and had quite a few questions about pole camps. With Renee and Steph, both attending the Ecole De Pole Easter Retreat, we thought why not get Justine Mclucas on to uncover all things pole camps with us! 

Pole camps are everywhere AND there are many different structures so we have your ultimate guide to selecting a pole that is perfect for YOU!

Are you super psyched and ready for pole camp now?! With Queensland easing its international travel restrictions why not join Renee, Steph, and Justine at the Ecole De Pole Easter Retreat or the Ecole De Pole Instructor Training Camp! The Gold Coast is an epic location and as locals, we are more than happy to give you some great travel tips!

Do you feel awkward or uncomfortable dancing without a pole? Even though you know how to move, you don't feel like you know how to "flow"? Improving your flow can not only help your pole journey but also help your overall movement in life. 

This week Steph and Renee uncover... all things flow with Marlo Fisken the owner of Flow Movement! 

Marlo helps us understand the difference between flow (with a little f) and Flow (with a big F) and how these can be incorporated into your own pole training. We discuss the importance of feeling safe, being mindful, and exploring all the movements your body has never experienced before. 

This episode is jam-packed with great chat AND great tips.

What an EPIC journey! Today is our LAST episode with Simone aka THE POLE PHYSIO.

Don’t be sad though, we are already talking about future episodes and can GUARANTEE she will be back ;).

This week Steph and Renee uncover...... Concussions & Listener Questions with Simone aka. The Pole Physio!  

When Simone agreed to come to chat with us about all things pole injuries, there was some major fangirling going on! As expected, there was SOME MAJOR geeking out and this quickly became our longest podcast episode EVER!  Given there is SO MUCH good stuff in here, the episode has been split into 3 parts!

If you are a pole dancer, which of course you are, YOU NEED TO LISTEN to this series.  So you might be wondering, who is the Pole Physio:  Simone Muscat is the owner & founder of The Pole Physio Australia, aerialist, and APA Titled Sports and Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist. After feeling frustrated & fed up with the number of injuries and the lack of easily accessible evidence-based information for the pole community, Simone created the The Pole Physio to address this knowledge gap. The Pole Physio is an online service that provides free access information for pole dancers and aerialists all over the world to evidence-based physiotherapy, strength, and conditioning, anatomy, and conditioning blogs. The team of Physiotherapists at The Pole Physio aims to improve pole-specific training knowledge and reducing the number of aerial-related injuries worldwide. You can find The Pole Physio on Instagram, read her blogs here and even book an appointment from anywhere (expect the USA), in the world.
