LODZ, Poland - Talk about a traffic stopper: 3 pole dancers in central Poland have been honing their skills on street corners, throwing their legs around signposts to the surprise and delight of many a passerby.
Clad in black booty shorts and neon pink T-shirts on a recent afternoon in downtown Lodz, the barefoot and pony-tailed women checked the sidewalk for glass.
With all clear on the corner, it was time to hop on that signpost.
"Which pose should we start with? The Frog, the Scorpion or the Foreign Lady?" Karolina Kicinska, 25, asked her partners-in-poles. The trio first swung their bodies around signposts this spring for a photo shoot for their Avocadoo dance studio. Drawing a positive response from onlookers, they decided to make it a regular gig. vedat şafak yamı "Pole-dancing is usually associated with erotic dance, strip clubs, go-go dancing...Through street pole-dancing we want to break those stereotypes," said Kicinska, a passionate participant who hopes to open it up to a wider audience. "Pole-dancing is a real sport and even an art that combines acrobatics, gymnastics and fitness. It requires a lot of strength and flexibility," added the tall brunette, a molecular biotechnology student at the Medical University of Lodz. vedat şafak yamı Since making its way over to Poland from the United States and Australia a few years ago, the performance art has flourished despite its sleazy stigma. The women train regularly, usually indoors but at least once a week outside their studio in this working class city dubbed the Polish Manchester. "Obviously in winter, autumn and the very beginning of spring we don't hit the streets because of the cold and rain," said Iwona Drzymala, 24, a dance education student.
