The Fabpole Origins: Where Aerial Meets Pole


The idea behind FabPole started with a simple question: Could I combine the beauty of aerial fabric/silks with the power of pole dancing? Both disciplines have their own rich histories and passionate communities, but merging them creates something truly special. FabPole's origins trace back to the vision I had when asked to explore the fusion of aerial fabric and spinning pole.


The core of FabPole is the Nexus Wrap with Sling System, a setup that enables aerial fabric to be securely attached to a vertical pole. This system supports a wide range of movements, from spins and climbs to elegant poses and transitions. The specialized fabric used is designed to grip the pole and both fabric poles in your hands perfectly while providing the softness and flexibility needed for pole and aerial tricks.


This innovation not only enhances the artistic possibilities but also improves safety and comfort. It’s a game-changer for anyone looking to explore new dimensions in pole and aerial fitness.
