There are some most representative dances at that time in every era.

Dance can even be traced back to the Stone Age. It was a form for primitive people to exchange ideas and feelings at that time.

With the rapid development of the Internet era in the 21st century, our understanding of dance is not limited to one-sided. Through the spread of various platforms on the Internet, we also have some simple knowledge about the classification of dance.

Today, we will talk about a new type of dance-

Pole dance

which is derived from jazz dance, yoga, modern dance, belly dance, national dance, ballet, Latin dance, acrobatics, rhythmic gymnastics and fitness.

But when it comes to pole dancing,

Some people think it's hot and sexy

Some people think it's performance art

Some people are biased against pole dancing, and think that bars, pornography, vulgarity and horsetails

even extend these bad labels to pole dancers! !

It can only be said that different people have different opinions.

Many people say that modern pole dancing originated in American construction sites at the end of 19th century, when construction workers had nothing to do. Just holding their building materials-steel pipes, singing and dancing, doing a lot of acrobatic movements, looking for a pleasure in boring work.

some people say that it originated in Europe?

There is a more traditional saying that pole dancing is a kind of primitive tribe's breeding worship dance in the 12th century.

But it actually originated from acrobatics in China.

After a lot of time investigation and analysis of historical materials,

Pole dancing originated from the "pole play" of the Han Dynasty in China. In the dynasty of Emperor Wuhan (18 BC), in order to boast about the wealth of the country, Emperor Wuhan invited many foreign visitors. Let's take a look at what I've done.

A grand banquet was held, in which the acrobatics "The Skill of Edge Pole" was the finale at that time.

in the Tang dynasty, acrobatics was an art enjoyed by the government and the people. The Tang people's skill of "carrying pole" is extremely high, including "climbing pole", "jacking pole", "riding pole play" and "palm pole play", and other acrobatic skills can be integrated.

In the travel ceremony of dignitaries in the Tang Dynasty, the acrobatic performance of "carrying poles" was often used as the forerunner to show their extravagance and heroism. In the mural of the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang, "Mrs. Shao's Travel Map in Hanoi, Song Dynasty", the picture with "carrying poles" as the guide is depicted.

After China's "pole play" flowed into the United States, influenced by American culture, "pole play" gradually broke away from the definition of acrobatics and became a sexy dance.

in the 192s, circus performance, a cheap and exciting entertainment, became popular in the United States, both in the city center and in the suburbs. In addition to animal performances, juggling is also the highlight of circus performances.

Pole dancing has also become one of many circus acrobatic performances. At first, performers used the props of tents to complete various movements, thus attracting the audience.

At first, most of these performers were men, and very few were women.

The audience of circus performances are mostly low-level working people. For these people, female performers can not only perform exciting juggling performances, but also show women's sexiness with the help of steel pipes, and the straight steel pipes can also set off women's bumps.

If you dress sexy again, you will have a strong visual impact on the audience as soon as you appear, and the audience's booing and whistling will surely resound through the audience.

When a woman jumps, a man looks. Adrenaline is high in the whole performance space, and hormones are everywhere.

In the end, the male performers were completely defeated by the female performers in the art competition of the circus.

pole dancing, and thus shape!
