General Information on
Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole
What is in the Sensually Active's exercise and dance
pole box?
Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole is delivered
in a 4 colour box with a carry handle. Inside this is a hi-density foam inner which holds
and protects the parts. Contained in the inner are all the parts (base, upper support,
poles, extensions, tools etc.) to construct a Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole
to cover heights from 7' 4" to 9'. Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole also
includes a full 8 page picture assembly manual.
(top)
How many pieces is Sensually Active's
exercise and dance pole?
Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole consists of 2
main poles to which extensions are added to increase the overall height. The Sensually
Active's exercise and dance pole is designed to be used from 7' 4" / 88") to 9'
/ 108").
(top)
What height will I get in the box?
Unlike other poles Sensually Active's exercise and dance
pole does not need to be cut to height so it can be moved to different height venues. The
box will allow you to construct a pole from 7' 4" or 88" to 9' or 108". To
go higher extensions are added.
(top)
My ceiling is over 9'
Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole uses
extensions to increase the height. Extensions are available. Sensually Active's exercise
and dance pole can be used up to 12' / 144" in standard format above that it is
advised to use additional support. Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole has been
used at 14' / 168" with no problems but safety must always be a priority.
(top)
How long does it take to put
up?
Once the height has been measured and the extensions
selected the Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole takes no more than 10 minutes to
erect for the first time -that's reading the instructions at the same time! After that it
takes 2~3 minutes.
(top)
How long does installation
take?
When first assembling Sensually Active's exercise and
dance pole it will take about 10 minutes, as the height will need to be measured, the
extensions selected (if required) and the adjuster screwed into the main upper pole.
Subsequent installations will take 3~5 minutes depending on the level of breakdown.
(top)
How portable is it?
Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole is supplied in
a carry box with a high-density foam inner. It can be carried in the box but the box will
not stand day-to-day use. The foam inner could be transferred to any nylon carry case
(like a hockey bag), which makes Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole extremely
portable.
(top)
How much does it weigh?
The Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole weighs
approx. 40lbs.
(top)
How big is the box or carry
case?
The Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole box
measures 44.9" x 4.7" x 16.9".
(top)
Does it come with a carry
case?
Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole is delivered
in a 4 colour cardboard carry carton with a hi-density foam inner. This however is only
really for transport home and not for general transport use. You can purchase on your own
an 'optional' nylon carrying case similar to a hockey bag size. The foam inner could be
transferred to the nylon case. We suggest nylon because, unlike metal carry cases, it will
not damage car paintwork, seats etc. when it is transported.
(top)
Is it static or spinning?
Sensually Active Sensually Active's exercise and dance
pole is a Duo-Pole. This means it is static and spinning in one pole. 2 screws are
released or tightened to change Dance Pole from static to spinning or back again. This
takes less than 15 secs. With the screws tightened the Sensually Active's exercise and
dance pole is locked solid. In Canada, 95% of the Pole fitness studios teach on 'static'
poles. It is more difficult to learn on a static pole but better long term as it more
difficult to go from spinning to static than the other way round.
(top)
What ceilings surfaces can I
use it on?
Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole can be used
against almost any level ceiling surface. Its silicone edging has hi-grip capabilities.
Rough surfaces, such as stucco, may present a problem depending on how rough they are. It
is not a case of not being stable enough it as to whether the ceiling will be damaged if
uneven pressure is placed on it. Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole cannot be used
on false or suspended ceilings.
(top)
Does Sensually Active's
exercise and dance pole come with Instructions?
Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole comes with a
detailed 8-page photographic assembly manual.
(top)
Will it damage my floor?
Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole has a soft
silicone pad around the base. This gives excellent adhesion to virtually any surface and
also stops any damage. As with any pressure pole it is possible that marks may occur but
these can be rubbed off.
(top)
What else will I need?
Everything to assemble the actual Sensually Active's
exercise and dance pole is in the box. Additional items are a tape measure - to measure
the ceiling height and the distance from the wall for future installations, a pair of step
ladders (a chair can be used but is not recommended) and possibly a stud finder to locate
the joists along with a pole level. Stud finders and pole levels can be found at any
hardware store and cost under $10 each. A pencil is also useful to discretely mark the
pole position.

Technical
How can I insert/remove the
adjuster quickly?
The best was to do this is to hold the adjuster with the
tube hanging downwards and spin the tube. Either brush your hand over the tube to spin it
or get someone else to spin the tube. There is also an optional accessory that fits in a
hand drill and allows the drill to spin the adjuster into the main pole.
(top)
How do you release the poles tubes if
they are stuck?
Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole is supplied
with release rods. With the base in 'static' mode insert the rod and turn anti-clockwise.
If tubes joints still will not release place the tubes on a flat surface, insert the rods
and with one rod against the surface give the other rod sharp tap. It is not force that
releases the tubes it is the shock. If the tube still will not release place something
solid under the release rod so it is parallel to the surface the poles are on and try
again. This so that the shock goes into the solid object and is not absorbed by the rod
itself.
(top)
How tight does the adjuster have to be?
The Sensually Active's exercise and dance pole adjuster
needs to be tight but not over tight. Tighten the adjuster and check the Sensually
Active's exercise and dance pole for movement. Try a spin if there is no movement the pole
should be fine. If there is any movement further tighten the adjuster. It helps to have
someone stand on the base to compress the floor whilst tightening the adjuster.
(top)
Adjuster cover is stiff
If the adjuster cover O-ring is too tight and will not
slide, rub a tiny film of Vaseline on to the O-ring. DO NOT get the Vaseline on the pole.
Only a very tiny amount is needed, just enough to dampen the O-ring. If too much is put on
wipe off with a tissue. Cover should now slide easily.
(top)
I can not find the adjuster!
The screw adjuster is under the adjuster cover. There are
three small slots in the centre of the foam box and one slot has longer thin cut outs at
both ends. It is the bottom slot when the foam inner is viewed with the large circular
upper dome thinner pieces at either end (one with a long screw section). That is the
adjuster. Just take the whole unit out of the box, press on the release button at the top
of the tube and slide the cover off. Remove the foam cover support and screw into the
upper main pole.
(top)
I can not find the Nut
The nut is under the adjuster cover. Please press in the
two locating buttons at the top of the adjuster cover, slide off the cover and the nut is
underneath. Remove the foam support ring before use.

Installation
What are joists?
Joists are the pieces of wood or metal that support the
floors in a building. The ceiling is also normally attached to them. Sensually Active's
exercise and dance pole uses pressure to stabilize it so it needs to be positioned against
two joists.
(top)
How do I locate joists?
Joists can be located by either tapping across the
ceiling with a knuckle or with an electronic stud finder. With a knuckle you tap across
until a more solid sound is heard - this is a joist or beam. A hollow sound is the space
between the joists. A stud finder will locate the joist electronically and can be found at
any hardware store.
(top)
What is a stud finder?
A stud finder is an electronic device that lactates solid
objects such as joists, beams etc. It senses changes in density of the material it is
measuring and either 'beeps' or lights an LED.
(top)
Using Sensually Active's exercise and
dance pole
What should I wear?
Pole exercise and dance moves require friction between
skin and the pole therefore the more exposed skin the better. However, it is important to
feel comfortable so wear what you feel comfortable wearing even if you may not be able to
do some of the moves due to lack of friction. Yoga pants and tank top are appropriate
attire for most moves with inverts being the exception. You can still do an invert with a
full yoga pant.
(top)
What shoes are best?
The more friction on the pole the better so bare feet is
best. However, trainers and or any other comfortable shoes are fine. If using trainers try
to use ones with a low friction sole as pole dancing requires you to rotate on the ball of
your feet and that can be difficult in trainers.
(top)
Does the pole need cleaning?
Yes any pole needs cleaning as skin contact, sweat etc.
will make the pole slippery. A slippery pole is dangerous as the user could slip off the
pole causing serious injury. Clean the pole regularly with rubbing alcohol and a clean
soft cotton towel.
(top)
Lotions and oils
NEVER use body lotions or oils prior to using a pole.
This is extremely dangerous as the user could slip off the pole causing serious injury.
