PoleLove Pole Dancing Calendar

10 Dec 2007AndrewNo Comments →

Looking for something different this Christmas? Want to bring a little bit of pole into your life every day for 2008?

The PoleLove pole dancing calendar may be just the thing, with a whole year’s worth of pole poses from 30 dancers to brighten up your wall.

For a good cause

Kat from PoleLove came up with the idea after a friend was suddenly diagnosed with cancer. Inspired by her strength and bravery, she wanted to do something to help others who find themselves in the same situation. (All proceeds from the calendar go to support cancer research.)

Kat says it’s also a chance for her to express what pole dancing means to her, to show off pole as the beautiful, acrobatic art form we believe in at Pole Exercise.

Making the calendar

Turning her idea into reality over the next four months was a long – and sometimes stressful – process though: finding a venue, booking photographers, co-ordinating designers and printers, and of course getting a diverse group of pole dancers from all over the UK to turn up on the day of the shoot.

But she says the overwhelming enthusiasm of everyone involved definitely made it worth the effort – in the end, 30 pole dancers (including Lucy) took part – and is already making plans for next year!

Kat has raised £1500 for cancer research through sales so far. Calendars are £14 and all of that (except PayPal fees) goes to Cancer Research UK as production costs have been covered by sponsorship and donations.
