Thought about pole dancing as a form of exercise? One Syracuse workout studio exclusively teaches people how to pole dance, and it is not for entertainment.
"This incorporates gymnastics, ballet, dance, aerobics, pilates, all of the above...all incorporated into all of this. The only thing is that you are utilizing a pole," Kerrilyn Reynolds, pole fitness instructor, and owner of CNY Pole Fitness, said.
Pole fitness is gaining popularity, prompting some people to choose pole fitness over the traditional gym.
"I've done the gym thing; I have a gym membership; its really boring," Anna Jerkins, pole fitness student, said. "It's fun, you know, it's not monotonous...its not on the treadmill for 45 minutes, and you look forward to it."
Its popularity has also led many people to sign a petition to allow it become a competitive sport for the 2012 London Olympic Games.
"If it does make it in to the Olympics, it's going to be one of the bigger sports," Nick Reynolds, pole fitness instructor, said. "It's kind of like the rings or pole vaulting or gymnastics things like that."
