"I started pole dancing because one of the school mums asked me."

Thanks to our brand partner, Dove

 

If a mum at your school drop-off asked if you wanted to do pole-dancing lessons, what would you say?

What if you took a risk and said yes?

That’s what Jacqueline did and it’s not only changed the way she sees herself, but the way her young daughter sees her as well.

“To me being comfortable in your own skin is about what your body feels like and what your body can do – not what it looks like.”

And that’s a lesson she wants to pass on to her daughter.

“As I’ve challenged myself, taken myself out of my comfort zone and tried different things it’s made me more comfortable with my body.”

It’s an unorthodox method but it might change your life too.

Would you try pole dancing?

Dove and pole dancing? What's the connection? How ridiculous! The pole dancing in the video and what we see online are so completely different. Pole dancing is not feminist.

I've been poling for three years now and there is honestly nothing like it. It is probably one of the best things I have ever done, yes there are the negative connotations but I think that now, as it becomes for popular, people are starting t realise that it isn't as taboo as they think. I don't know what I would do without pole to give me my time out each week.
