Chinese Pole
Chinese pole is a circus discipline performed on a vertical pole, often covered in rubber for grip. The artist uses the pole to climb, slide, hold, spin, and execute a wide variety of poses, transitions, and acrobatic movements.
It combines strength, agility, coordination, and body control, and is known for both its powerful climbs and its dynamic vocabulary. Chinese pole can include static holds, drops, flips, and other explosive movements that make it a highly physical and visually striking apparatus.
