Chinese poles have been used for the dancing that has recently gained popularity as a mainstream form of what activity?
Chinese pole Chinese poles are vertical poles on which circus performers climb, slide down and hold poses. The poles are generally between 3 and in height and approximately 2 to in diameter. Some poles have a slightly larger pole that rotates around the static central pole using ball bearings. This rotating pole allows a performer to spin on the vertical axis, giving a performer the ability to incorporate rate of spin into what would otherwise be static moves. Bringing the body closer into the pole causes the performer to spin faster. A few Chinese pole tricks have been incorporated with pole dancing techniques.
China Now "CHINA NOW" was the largest festival of Chinese culture ever in the UK. It launched in February 2008, with a series of high-profile events to mark the beginning of the Chinese New Year.
