Pretty soon, the best strippers in the world will be in the UK. Guaranteed. Because starting next year children as young as 11 can sign up for pole dancing lessons in Choppington, Northumberland.

Register today!

Those saucy Brits!

Laraine Riddell, a local fitness instructor, believes classes in pole dancing will help lure fatties out from under the clutches of obesity.

Ms Riddell said: "This is a good way of tackling obesity. It is dancing and it is fun and gives you a fantastic feeling.

"I have seen the joy in the faces of children who are holding their body strength up, doing the splits, spinning round and upside down.

However, the children's charity, Kidscape who has been "helping to prevent bullying and child abuse since 1985," feels pole dancing is a little too socially linked to strippers and erotic dancing.

But Michele Elliott, director of Kidscape, said the classes were "out of order."

She said: "Pole dancing is traditionally an activity where women on stage are given money which is stuck in their underwear. To teach 12-year-old girls pole dancing is out of order. I am sure pole dancing is good exercise—but so is stripping. After all, strippers have great bodies. By all means give the kids exercise, but just skip the poles."

Riddell, who also teaches pole dancing to adults, believes that children don't have the same reservations or associations to the stripper pole that we do. She believes this because she is totally crazy.

"The children don't come in with thoughts of strip clubs in their minds."

Uh, yeah they do. If they don't come in with them, they'll leave with them. They're 12, they're fat, they're not stupid.

Maybe we should also start showing young obese kids porn and tell them if they're fat they'll never get laid. Maybe that'll help.

Even being what I consider to be a pretty liberal parent, no way would I be sending my kids to pole dancing class. I mean, really, WTF!!!!

Well hey, look on the bright side. The creepy older men who are looking for insecure children to molest won't have to drive around as much as they used to.

When I was a kid we used to play a game called Challenge. My school ran out of funding to buy more tetherballs and all of them had already broken for the year so what we did was challenge each other to tricks on the pole.

i.e. 4 times around, 1 hand, no legs, no hoppies. Or 15 times around, two hands, two legs.

Looking back I guess the teachers let us do it because pointing out that it was inappropriate would have made us realize it was associated with something dirty. We had no idea.

Wow, that is god damn horrible! The very idea of encouraging 11 year old girls to be strippers as a profession is fucking appauling. I mean fuck, that is about the time they put down their dolls and then promote them to thinking about giving guys whom are pedophiles a wet dream? I dunno but I honestly really wish I had not known this. lol!

A fantastic feeling eh? Well, what I have to say to that is ok, so one might say that would be a good way for people to try to place a bandaid over an already defficient ego. Yeeeeahhh, come on people. We all know it is to make a buck so stop trying to church up the idea.
I mean is this societies way of saying, well, it is better than working at McDonalds? lol!
Maybe I am insane but as superficial as I am, I would like to think that talent and skill counted a bit more than what any girl had which is T&A.

How do you go about telling your parents you want pole dancing lessons? My mom still had problems with buying me a pony when I was 11, I couldn't imagine the deal she would've had with me learning to spread my vagina on a pole!

Ewwwwwwwwyyyyy. What an era to be a 11 year old vagina humper! =]

Meh. Ghetto kids booty dance and do whatever that is they did in Rize (krunking?). Hawaiian girls hula. Kids in Brazil wear thongs and do whatever it is they do at Carnival (the term "dry humping" comes to mind, but I'm sure it has an official name). And now British kids pole dance. It's not the end of the world or anything.

Puritanism doesn't work. My guess is that people taking part in this will be better off than those with properly sheltered upbringings. At the end of the day it's a social activity where they'll get fitter. A lot of children's play is some shadow of adult life. Playing with dolls of babies doesn't mean you're about to become a teen mother, er... or father.

I teach bellydancing classes to adults and children. Of course everyone knows bellydancers don't wear much clothes and the moves may look provocative to many.

So to say that I am teaching children to dress scantily and become strippers is absurd.
We in that states are raising fat lazy kids any type of exercise will keep them in better shape. Who knows maybe along the way they will learn to take better care of they're bodies and not die of an early heart attack.

Lets not turn this into a liberal, conservative thing. I believe that although I am very liberal I also have many conservative ideas which makes me normal.

But the point of belly dancing isn't to stick your lady's front bottom into the face of some sweaty guy as he sticks £5 in your garter belt.

Why would kids want to do it, especially fat lazy kids?
