Introduction Are you a beginner in the exciting world of pole dancing? Welcome! At VIVE POLE Pole Dance Shop, we know that choosing the right pole is crucial to your training and development. This practical guide is designed especially for you, so you can make informed decisions and ensure every turn, every trick, and every jump looks impressive. Let's make it fun and effective!
How to Buy a Pole Dance Pole in an Easy and Fun Way?
Discover Pole Dance Bar Modes: Static vs. Rotary!
- Static Mode: Perfect for beginners. It's an excellent option that will give you a secure foundation while you gain confidence and strength.
- Rotating Mode: When you're ready to add a little excitement to your moves, the Spinning Mode is ideal. It allows you to smoothly transition between stationary and spinning modes to perform dazzling tricks.
What is the Perfect Pole Dance Pole for You?
Consider the following:
- Mounting: Pressure-mounted or freestanding bars are ideal for places where you can't permanently attach anything.
- Optional Fixed Anchors: If you want to "fix" your bar for greater security and grip on the ceiling, there are two main pieces, in the case of the manufacturer X-POLE it is called HOME MOUNT - In the case of the manufacturer Lupit Pole you can request the bars with 4 holes in the upper plate to fix your plate on the ceiling, and you will still have the convenience of removing and putting it easily because they are installed under pressure.
- There are also anchors for sloping ceilings, both for X-POLE the system is called BALL MOUNT and for Lupit Pole , it is a plate created exclusively for sloping ceilings, for more information consult with us.
The Million Dollar Question: Can pressure-mounted Pole Dance Bars be installed on false ceilings, plasterboard or similar?
It is not recommended to install pressure-mounted pole dance bars on false ceilings, plasterboard , or similar materials. These types of structures are typically not strong enough to withstand the weight and force generated during pole use, which can result in unnecessary risks or damage.
Pressure-mounted pole dance bars are designed to be installed on solid, sturdy surfaces, such as concrete ceilings, beams , or load-bearing walls.
If you are considering a space that has a false ceiling or plasterboard, it is best to opt for a freestanding bar / portable Podium / Stage bars or consult a professional about safer installation options that fit your space.
Remember, safety is paramount when using pole dance bars , so always make sure the installation is suitable for the type of surface you plan to use it on.
If you have any further questions about pole dancing , bar installation , or anything else related, please don't hesitate to ask!
What is the maximum recommended height for a Pole Dance bar at home?
Recommended Height is between 2.40m and 3.30m, depending on the manufacturer and type of Pole Dance Bar, the basic packages of all the Pole Dance Bars that we sell come standard to mount them from approximately 2.35m to approximately 2.80m, for heights up to 3.30m, consult the available extensions. This is the standard height for most pole dancers and is usually suitable for practicing both basic and advanced movements.
For heights from 3.30M, you should consider a Professional Pole Dance Bar.

Which Mode is Best: Static or Spinning?
As a beginner, we recommend starting with Static Mode to strengthen your body and technique. Once you feel confident and comfortable with the basic movements, it's time to spin!
What Diameter is Best for You?
- 40 mm: Perfect for beginners, ideal if you have less grip strength or smaller wrists, and also for children.
- 45 mm: This diameter is the standard in competitions and studios, recommended for those seeking a greater challenge and strength development, obviously also recommended for beginners since if you get used to 40mm, even though it works great for your practice, and in the future you want to compete or grow in the world of Pole Dance, you will almost always find the 45mm diameter.
Pole Dance Bar Finishes
Find your style!
The finish of your pole will affect the grip and overall experience.
Here are some options that stand out:
- Chrome: The classic, versatile choice suitable for everyone.
- Stainless Steel / Stainless Style: Durable and perfect for those with allergies. One of the most recommended finishes from all manufacturers.
- Brass: Ideal for warm climates; it improves grip, especially in the hot summer.
- Gold Titanium: Increases grip and provides a premium touch and design.
- Powder Coating: It offers standout colors like Black, White, and Pink, ideal for those who need a better grip, although these finishes tend to wear more easily over time, depending on the use and care of your Pole Dance Bar, but the grip is incredible.
- Silicone: For exceptional control; a favorite of many clothed pole dancers, professional dancers, and acrobats.
What Is Our Personal Recommendation?
To achieve the perfect balance between quality and performance, the X-POLE XPERT PRO Bars and the LUPIT POLE G2 Quick Lock 45mm Stainless Steel Bars are your best choice. With their X-LOCK/QUICK LOCK system and ergonomic design, these bars will take you to new heights.
