Good Gag Gift

I bought this from Barnes and Noble for the same price ($10) as a gag gift for my friend's birthday. We take an actual pole dance fitness class that utilizes difficult tricks and spins, so I wasn't expecting any real instruction out of this book. We spent a good 20 minutes going through it laughing at the way they describe some of the moves. It also gives you "ideas" on how to dress/dance/and music selections for different roles you may want to play that are based on colors (again hilarious).

I would not suggest this book for actual pole dancing instruction, the moves entailed are pretty much common sense things to do with a pole and don't really require much instruction. However, it is definitely worth the $10 for a good laugh or as something risque to leave out on your coffee table when people (especially family) come to visit ;)

interesting but only if you've got a pole

well i don't have a pole nor do i plan to buy one so i didn't buy this book but i read the entire thing in the bookstore. the pictures (sketches really) and arrows helped me know what i should be doing. there were a LOT of variations. if i was going to buy a pole i'd want the book. you probably should have some dance experience to really appreciate this book. i think it would be a neat little gag gift or maybe bachelorette party gift...if you're looking for something to seriously learn how to pole dance then you might be disappointed but if you're looking for light fun and some giggles then this is probably worth it...

This book is awful for real pole dancing

This book is sooooo misleading about pole dancing. Nothing new or even a spin. Absolutely ridiculous. Save your money and take a class.

More of a cartoon book

I bought this book because it was written by the makers of my boyfriend's pole. What a WASTE! I should have just skipped buying the book and taught myself how to walk around the pole! I would suggest you buy this book if you...heck I can't even think of why I would suggest it at all!!

cute presentation, but mis-leading

i agree with the previous reviewer that the guide is misleading because it doesn't show any spinning around the pole at all. i heard from others that the peekaboo pole does not support weight and if this book was meant to complement it, it makes sense because it just teaches you moves and poses around the pole and not any moves that makes the pole carry your weight.

the poses/moves in this book are very show-girly or typical sexy girly bar moves. it doesn't teach you tricks that i was looking for. whilst the book is cute to look at, the pictures are rather crass for my taste.

i got the idiot's guide book to poledancing and i thought that was much better. it comes with a DVD and it is more useful should you actually want to spin around the pole.
