Why wear shorts for pole dancing?
Unlike leggings or full-coverage outfits, pole dance shorts leave the legs free to grip the pole. This skin-to-pole contact is essential for safely performing spins, transitions, inversions, and other figures. The right shorts combine comfort, support, and freedom of movement, while also flattering the silhouette.
Choosing pole dancing shorts based on your practice
The choice of shorts depends on your pole style and needs:
- Pole sport & aerial tricks: High-cut or adaptable shorts make it easier to grip the pole and offer maximum freedom of movement. They also provide greater safety, especially for beginners learning inversions and climbs.
- Pole flow: All styles work here, including more covering cuts such as high-waisted shorts, skirt-shorts, or looser, flowing designs. They provide support while enhancing the grace and fluidity of your movement.
Materials and cuts suitable for pole dancing
Pole dance shorts must resist repeated friction against the pole and move with the body without restricting it. That’s why they are made from stretchy, breathable, and durable fabrics. Blends of polyester and elastane ensure elasticity and comfort, while options in recycled fabrics combine performance with eco-responsibility.
Cuts also make a difference: high waists for better support, flat seams to prevent irritation, and carefully designed openings to expose just the right amount of skin for grip.
