|  | | Rachel tries out her moves |
|  | Rachel Anstis twists and spins around the pole like a expert, here she shows us how to copy her elegant and erotic moves. |
 | |  | To get us started she shows us a few basic moves, the walk around, bridge, the body ripple, the straight leg grip and the reverse hold. These postures are relatively easy for a beginner to get into.  | The Walk Around Stand tall with your shoulders back. Stick out your bum and your chest. Look at the audience. Hook your arm around the pole and on tip toes wall slowly and sexily round the pole. |  | The Bridge From the Walk Around hold the pole with one hand, place the pole between your legs and still on tip toes slowly drop backwards towards the floor, curving your spine as you go until you can see the audience. |  | The Body Ripple Holding the pole with one hand move into it with your shoulders, stick your bum out, ripple inwards until your stomach is on the pole, then pull out with your shoulders, so that your pelvis is on the pole. Repeat several times so the movement flows. |  | The Straight Leg Grip For this movement you must jump onto the pole holding with both hands grip the pole between your legs. Release one hand and lean away from the pole, straighten one leg and spin around slowly in this position. |  | The Reverse Hold Stand side-on to the pole. Hold the pole with both hands straight and arms above your head. Bend legs and hook the right leg around the pole so it rests in the crook of the knee. Cross both feet behind you and spin around slowly. |
| Tips to bring out the pole dancer in you! | 1. Invest in some sassy outfits. 2. Set the mood with some appropriate music. 3. Keep eye contact with your partner/audience as you dance. 4. Keep on tip toes to make legs look longer and leaner. 5. Be confident in your moves, express yourself and don’t worry about the size of your bum/stomach. You'll look fantastic. |
Warning: Before attempting these exercises you should warm up properly and ensure all equipment is safe. Taking part in an organised class is advisable! | | | |
