Claire’s Bio:
Claire is the author of The Pole Story, Contributing Writer Vertical Art & Fitness Magazine, a Teacher, and a Speaker.
About her Book:
I created The Pole Story because of an ongoing feeling that my work for my MA in Somatic Psychology was somehow incomplete. While researching my thesis (called “The Embodiment of Female Sexuality Through Dance”), I realized that I was only scratching the surface of issues related to the pole dancing movement. I found myself continuing to write and read long after graduation and my thesis became the foundation for a much larger exploration.
I wanted to write about all the different elements of the pole dancing movement in a way that was accessible to nearly everyone. As I started talking to people in my pole dancing community about what I was doing, it became clear that there was a need for words that could explain our movement both to each other and to others. It also became clear to me that there is a tremendous amount of work that needs to be done to educate the public about what pole dancers do and why it has value. It has become my mission to give a voice to my community’s experiences and to educate the general public about the physical, emotional and psychological benefits of pole dancing.
