  • Pole Widget Yes or No?

    Posted by Sarah Brace on September 11, 2013 at 9:03 am

    What is everyone's opinion of things like the pole widget? From what I can make out it's an attachment that fits the top of the pole & allows you to hang silks, yoga hammocks etc from it.https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid

    Is it useful? Is it dangerous? Would it help you learn harder tricks? Or make you rely on it rather than your own strength? Your thoughts please.

    There are multiple variations currently out there on the market for this- one of the most popular is the Pole Aria offered by Lil Mynx. Although these devices offer the combination of silks and pole, from my experience the movement would be catered more towards an advanced level of poler. My reasoning is, you’re dealing with two apparatuses. There’s a body adaptation that occurs with the pole and a completely different body adaptation you have to learn with the silks. I have so far found little use for this accessory other than it’s fun to try but as far as it being really useful for a wide range of moves and learning, I’m not convinced. This may change as I get better at using both pole & silks together. There’s been previous discussions on this as well and if I remember correctly there was a debate whether these devices should be used on removable home poles?

    Thanks Kobajo, you’ve given me tons of good info! I’m thinking I’ll stick with pole simply for pole moves & do my aerial yoga separately, I think that way I’ll get the best of everything in its pure form. 🙂
