Gravity: “am I a joke to you?”
you are now
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Best comment
Lmao
I swear gravity does not exist for pole dancers in general XD
physics:*exists*
ashley fox: i'm about to end this mans whole career
ayushi singh fucking for real
More like she knows how to use physics
Riiiiiight!
Lmao
😂
Her core strength is just unbelievable. Meanwhile, I trip on air.
I trip for no reason
FO REAL!
😁😃
Its not even just her core. Its her knees, elbows, thighs, back knees.. shes holding all that strength there too which is incredible
Hey, don't underestimate air!
No reason why this shouldn’t be an Olympic sport. This woman is a true Olympian.
absolutely agree!!!!!
I agree!
She made it look so easy.
If I tried to do a third of what sis has done, I’d be high fiving God.
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
😂😂 this comment made my day. Same btw.
GodisAwesome Asalways lol Thankyou 🙂
Lmfao same
Facts! 😂😂
When you're so talented that gravity no longer applies to you
she defies physics law
Right 😲. Meanwhile I can’t stop falling down my house stairs
She is the Gravity
Talented or hard working
This is beyong pole dancing
I came here wearing two wigs just in case and sis took my scalp
never laughed this hard in my entire life!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
LMFAOOOO IM FUCKIN DECEASED 😂😂😂😂😂
lol
🤣🤣🤣
Lmao stop 😂
The fact she just held herself at the top of the pole by a single ankle...
Yea definitely screamed at that part
Then the controlled drop !!!
yes~!That!!!!!
People have no idea how unbelievably strong you have to be to do some of this.
Pole dancing should be more respected. 😤💜
Couldn't agree with you more nanjoonie
Pretty sure everyone can understand that they can’t do that 😂
That was my first thought when i saw her come on stage: the strength on her, but also her ability to control her body with such precision: I'm in awe!!!
When I first started aerial hoop a few years ago I nearly died 😫 my arms were just like nope. I can’t imagine pole dancing where you can’t sit anywhere to rest. She makes it look effortless.
Agreed, I've been dancing for years and nowhere close to this level. Also I just want to add I love your pink hair!
"Dancing isn't a sport" my ass, this stuff is amazing no matter what.
Sketchy Akechi who ever said that? If it’s competitive then can be a sport.
@sketchy akechi football players and such. Oh you can lift 200lb? Cute. Try jumping your own height in an extended split and land on a broken ankle while looking like a GODDESS!!
i don't consider dancing a sport, and i'm a dancer. it's an art form. an aesthetic field
Lmystery Dmystery not even dancers can land in a broken ankle lmfao, sorry.
@@arlyn6310 actually they can a girl once did dances the black swan variation on a broken ankle, briar nolet also danced with an injury, charity Anderson also danced with a leg injury, and there are so many more.
Most people dont even know there injured untill years later because they are so use to the pain of dancing.
Sorry for my poor english, it is not my first language and I am not very good at typing yet.
SHE WAS STANDING ON THE POLE! Sign me up for HER Classes ASAP!!!!
You aren't going to learn this pose. Not in the first two years. It's the expert level, the most extreme one. But I wish you good luck
How the heck does she do it???? Mind blown
empressfuller18 Honestly, don’t listen to some of these comments I believe if you really put the time and effort to practice this art you’ll be able to be just as great. Good luck :)
@@salmonflavored Tons of core and thigh/calf strength. She hooked one foot around the pole and used the other to press against it to keep herself in position.
She must not eat rice..🤷🏻♀️🤣😂🤣
i've been poleing for 5 years and anytime I watch Ashley i feel like an absolute beginner!! She is perfection- the way she makes everything look so effortless is unbelievable
Why is she wearing a bathing suit and not a leotard (like a gymnast)? Bodybuilders wear bikinis so the judges can have a clearer view of the athlete's muscle definition. So I was wondering if it was the same reason with pole dancers, or if it had more to do with clothing making it harder to grip the pole.
@@Karen-pk3uv I dont do pole but I thought it was pretty clear it's because it makes it easier to grip the pole. I dont do pole, but I do hoop dance. You need the skin and the sweat and moisture for friction, whether to stay on the pole or to keep the hoop up but pole is far more dangerous in that aspect lol.
@@Karen-pk3uv Also please is a bit different from gymnastics in the fact that the bar is vertical instead of horizontal and more/vastly different tricks can be performed in pole as long as clothing permits it. A pole dancer likely couldnt perform many of the moves like ashley does here if she were wearing a leotard.
@@Karen-pk3uv it’s to grip the pole. i wore a bodysuit to class one day and just having my stomach covered made it almost impossible to do half the stuff we were doing in class. i actually had to call a friend and ask them to bring me a different outfit because i was taking two classes that day.
they do make sticky clothing (including leotards) but other than that you need the skin contact.
the future is cool AF. I get to watch the top pole dancer on youtube? Neat. Its interesting to see the talent and such. She really is at a whole different level
It's like she walks onto the stage and then no laws of physics apply to her
negativitty oh physics applies. I can promise you that. It’s a lot of friction and counterbalance. Her skill is unparalleled, as is her control and strength.
Right? Like gravitational pull doesn’t apply to her 😱
She's a goddess,that's why.such beauty belongs on a stage,it's so rare to see tasteful and engaging pole dance.
@@thepickleofdestiny4536 true and she doesn't try to be sensual about it maybe thats why it so different, it is not just sensual posing in the pole it is acrobatic dancing.
@@kamzamosweu2269 skill is the most attractive thing in the world to me
Ive been taking pole dancing lessons and it is hard af. They make everything look so effortless and my hands have constant blisters. These women work hard and have dedication. This isnt stripper pole dancing...this is art.
Cynthia Rosario same!
although... stripper pole dancing can be hella arty and the idea that stripers are less then this woman, just because they take their tops off? kinda mean.
not that that is what you are saying, just food for thought!
Stripper pole dancing is still art. Don't know why people think anything sex related isn't art.
Stripper pole dancing is art, but I honestly see it as a different category. Similar to how oil paintings and water color are both art. Just different mediums?
It’s not art.
Can somebody give me some valid arguments why this isn't an olympic sport?
Probably the same reason ballet and other forms of dance aren't Olympic sports? Regardless it's an incredible feat of strength 😍
TheAnnickje they’re trying to make it one :)
This is literally gymnastics, but the pole is vertical. IF PING PONG CAN BE AN OLYMPIC SPORT, SO CAN THIS!
It's probably considered trashy because they're wearing very little clothing. Which doesn't make sense lol the swimmers wear speedos and gymnasts wear leotards so i don't see a problem. It should be an olympic sport.
@@stigyanblue1442 AMEN!!
An incredible level of gravity defying physicality, but a lyricism and artistry of dance that is breathtaking in its own right. She deserves the kind of recognition any top flight gymnast gets. Mesmerizing. I have mad respect for that woman’s talent and training. Exquisite execution. Absolutely beautiful.
i suddenly want to be a pole dancer
Metoo,
DO IT!
It is really fun and alot of muscle control. I recommend also do yoga.
Same
IKR!!
3:15
she just... let go. and didn't fall.
wHAT KIND OF SORCERY-
amazing job. 100% deserved the win.
Little and Strong
My jaw dropped. Much respect to her 🙏🏽
WHAT. THE. PHOUQUE?!?!?!?!?
Lmao! It's called the 'starfish'
Skin grip REALLY helps... I think
The sooner people grasp the idea that something can be sexy without being sexual, the sooner we can see this become more mainstream and respected.
Edit: okay SO 👏🏻
I guess what I should have said is that something can be sexy without being lewd/vulgar/offensive. My main point is that this shit is IMPRESSIVE and people who poopoo it just because it’s sexy are being nincompoops
Miranda Majewicz she must have never heard of Jesus or the Bible. More mainstream and respected? You sound like satin himself
You can’t be sexy without being sexual.
The word sexual means pertaining to sex. The word sexy is an adjective that basically means pleasingly sexual...
For instance two fat people having sex are engaged in a sexual act, but most people wouldn’t call it sexy because they wouldn’t consider it pleasing.
So you can be sexual but not sexy. But you can’t be sexy without being sexual.
@@gracefulwriting3953 what's wrong with satin? Are you prejudiced against shiny material?
Angela Logan your comment is the devil himself.
@@gustavmeyrink_2.0 LOL. Well, she probably hates to dry clean.
2:05 Dang, she literally twisted her arm doing that back flip. Watch it in slow motion, you can literally see her arm "untwisting" after she lands into her splits. Mad respect
Увидела выступление сейчас. Но вы, видимо, никогда не видели полноценного шпагата до самого пола и даже больше.
Данная артистка с огромным потенциалом все шпагатные элементы просто сливает. Посмотрите взмахи в этой связке - они похожи на невнятные махания ногой, а должны быть по танцу полноценные шпагаты с прямой линией ног!
@@Alex-kq1oh шпагат доступен не всем. Это у нас каждой второй суставы выворачивают наизнанку ради "идеально прямой линии", а у них хоть какая-то, но забота о спортсменах есть. На то у нас и 16-летки в балете и инвалидами с вываливающимися суставами выпускаются.
Ashley Fox was my pole instructor for the short time I was in Hudson County NJ. She taught me so much about self confidence and strength. I’m so happy for more people to recognize her for her talent and hard work! She spotted me while I was holding on to the pole and taught me I was strong enough for my weight. She’s amazing❤️
She's so incredible!
A great instructor is a gift. So she talented in many ways, how freaking awesome!
You're so lucky!!!!! Do you know if she still teaches?
I want her to teach me
I'm completely mesmerized by this!
Just attempting half of this would have landed me in 3 different orthopedic wards at the same time. Absolutely brilliant. I'm in awe. Gobsmacked. At a total loss for words...
Hehehe hehehe
Lmao @ "landed in 3 different orthopedics wards" lawd that was a good laugh
I'm with hay mate!
I agree. Hadn't expected this and had no idea these moves were even possible. There's no reason this couldnt be an Olympic event.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
OH MY GOD THE “LOOK MOM NO HANDS” MOVE KILLED ME. Anxiety level : 10,000.
But god damn it was impressive
Lauren P when
Adriana Gonzales 3:11
everything she did was impressive
imagine all the strength training, contempory dance training, pole work and determination that went into this. what a wonderful dancer. when she “dropped” at the beginning of her routine, i got shivers. oooh. i would love to catch a competition live!
Some of the cleanest transitions ever, and she makes it look ssooooo easy.
people at home thinking pole dancing is easy because she made it easy
For real! I know my joints would be cracking and popping all over the place lmao she is amazing
Agree, she moves so smoothly it looks as if its the easiest thing ever.
Seriously looks like she's underwater sometimes. Like she has no body weight...just incredible. It's like ballet... they look like they're floating but they're putting their body through hell to do it.
It’s not 😅😅 i do pole dance and OMG it’s very hard😩😭 but i like pole dancing and now i’m more strong 👌🏻👌🏻
Imagine how frustrating it would be for her as a literal athlete and artist when she tells people she is a pole dancer and she has to be like ‘no not that kind of pole dancer’ literally every single time
think a lot of pole dancer have been through that situation
Actually it has surprisingly become a much more respected sport. People never truly realized the amount of strength and work a person has to build up in order to become somewhat capable to do this job in clubs. I know of dancers who weight train and work out off the pole to become stronger to be able pull off new "tricks" moves.
Not if your Canadian. We have pole dancers, then there are stippers.
All pole dancers, strippers or not, are athletes and preformers, society is just dumb and needs to stope demeaning females sexuality.
@@sophiaperez1090 why sexuality is important?
Absolutely the best pole performance I've seen very possibly the best performance I've seen period. The strength, control, fluidity, flexibility, rhythm, and beauty was all there. So much talent
No body can do it better and so elegant
Took the words from my mouth! Literally the most beautiful routine I've seen ♥️
Jasmine Valiente Check out this video of a ballet dancer pole dancing. It’s so graceful. ua-cam.com/video/7z2Eqm72sr4/v-deo.html
I said the same thing: best performance I've ever seen
You can watch Olga Koda, she's beautifull too but this one is clearly better :)
She has command over every single muscle in her body, absolutely in touch with everything her body is! 😳❤️ I'm literally sitting here gaping at the beauty and talent.
So here I am about to finish my grad degree in physics and just realized my whole life was a lie. Applying to Taco bell in the morning..wish me luck!
U finna drop out n start pole dancing?
😂😂😭😭
How did it go?
I'm crying...😂😂😂😂😂😂😂...good luck though...
Lol
Bro what she was literally standing on a pole
Dafuck IKR
Fucking sideways
That’s big toe muscle grip she was working
I had to rewind it to make sure I saw her do that and to see how she did it LOL
She had her upper foot on the other side of the pole relative to her body, and the lower foot seemed to be on the same side. Very impressive nevertheless
She. Is. Amazing!!! That's some serious core strength and flexibility and how the hell does she do that standing sideways on the pole thing???!!! Cirque de Soleil needs to call her stat!
Cirque de soleil came to mind also!
Omg ...I thought the same thing IMMEDIATELY about cirque
She had one foot on the pole and the other hooked onto the other side of the pole to create traction. The rest is an amazing amount of core strength to keep her body sideways!!
@@sarah-sillz thanks for the info. It's still freaking amazing to be able to hold oneself like that!
Kymberlyn Reed that’s exactly wut I said XD
This made me tear up. The amount of hard work and talent is unfathomable. I hope to be half as good as her some day 🥰
I cant even IMAGINE the amount of strength this woman needs for this routine!!
Ikr
This is a male. Read my longer post.
@@inspire734 ma'am, why are you in so many comments' replies 😂😂
What kind of super human strength is this? Every flawless movement.... You can almost feel all the hours she's spent rehearsing... Every. Single. One. I know there was pole dancing but I've never seen anything like this. this has to be the most of mind blowing thing I've seen on UA-cam since forever. That strength, dexterity, flexibility and confidence in your ability to tell your body to do exactly what your imagination wants from it... Humans yo...
I agree!
Deji D I’m gonna look up every routine on UA-cam that she has done because she is absolutely the best I’ve seen
welcome to the world of pole acrobatics ;)
I'm being astonished since I've seen this, there is such incredible people in this world my mind just collapse, it's the most incredible performance I've ever seen far above all!
Pole dancing hurts like hell oml
She is out of this world. The strength, the flexibility... she’s a super-human
News for you, she is a guy. Read my message above yours.
she is definitely is
Yup she’s gotta be a fucking alien so incredible
@@inspire734 And what's your point? I thoroughly enjoyed the routine. The skill and talent. Loved the natural hair. It is not of my business what her sexual identity is but men also do poll routines.
@Vahal Valkyrie oh no no I was saying it in admiration not sarcasm, I’m not a raciest.
Being able to appear weightless like she does…I can’t imagine how much strength and control that takes! Truly a privilege to see ❤
I can do this to! With zero gravity, no bone structure and melted joints...😭she’s so beautiful im shooketh
😅😂😂
Пол дансинг Украина
Omg same
She's like "what gravity???"
The best website so far I found to learn Pole Dance is tinyurl.com/poledance5 Hope this will help….
She probably got muscles in her toes
... I mean we all have muscles in our toes... but her toe muscles are stronger than my entire body.
she got muscle everywhere
everyone has muscles in their toes
I mean I sure hope so???
Sis deadass has ear muscles
Mark my words: This WILL be an Olympic sport one day!!!!
soon soon
Stripping / poor dancing isn’t a sport. I mean, she probably burns a lot of calories on her back / knees, but this is not a sport This is no different than her job at the strip club. You can hear her fellow lot lizards cheer her on like she discovered cancer or won the Indy 500.
@@williamwade3443 she’s not really stripping or being a hooker she’s just dancing
@@williamwade3443 you know this is a dancing competition, right? 😅
@@williamwade3443 God you are stupid.
there wasn't one move that wasn't pure grace, beauty, and athleticism. she FELT the emotions conveyed through her dance - exquisite.
.
I wish this was more accepted and mainstream. You have to be SO strong for this.
your core muscle is on another level
I have no idea how I ended up here...but I must say, I'm glad that I did!! Girl got talent...daaamn...that was absolutely beautiful!!!
In our lifetime, I’m betting pole will have the same level of mainstream respect as ballet does now, and artists like this are why.
Ballet doesn't have stripping involved tho....so I doubt it.
@@amandagaskill7609 this didn't either. This was pure beauty talent and strength, not strip club dancing.
thepeacefish - I’m not doubting a lot of training, practice, & discipline go into pole dancing, but don’t think it would probably achieve THE SAME respect as ballet (not only b/c it’s considered a stripper’s type of activity) but there’s not much dancing involved? In this routine there’s some movements around the stage, but her strength was on the poles. Her off-pole work made her look not flexible. Her pole work was great, very fluid, but pole “dancing” I see more of as a sport category, kinda like rhythmic gymnastics. I actually wouldn’t be surprised if it was added to the olympics one day.
@@sameoldsam5534 no but poles are in strip clubs...that's what I meant. They cant separate the two.
Bet again. The Age of Woman has dawned. Pole dancing is a bullshit patriarchal pursuit not worth women's time to "master" 🤣🤣🤣
The combination of sheer strength and pure grace she had to have to pull this off is just awe inspiring!
It doesn’t even register in my mind as sexual. It’s art in motion.
Brooke Exploring.....I could NOT agree with you more. Unfortunately though, we still live within closed-minded societies 🤷!
As a pole dancer myself, thank you for this comment💖✨
I've watched this at least 100 times and keep coming back because it is literally the most incredible pole performance I've ever seen.
Same here. The choreography is extraordinary and the execution as well. And I'm talking beyond the sport side of this performance, which is obviously insane, but the artistry in this piece is otherworldly
ditto !! absolute divine feminine magic, I am so thankful to her for this expression of strength and grace ♥
Have u watched Anastasia Sokolova? ua-cam.com/video/QkEaBoK4s6E/v-deo.html
or ua-cam.com/video/lHm2s3klHWU/v-deo.html
Now you try.
Her and Baby Queen are the best I’ve seen. Next level.
She's basically a 3d ballerina, and I'm so amazed at her skill
there are actual 3d ballerinas though...?
r u a stem kid
Are ballerinas 2d LOL
I think Erin meant she's not limited to the floor/ the 2d space that is the floor, she is free to move vertically as well
The absolute insane amountof strength and control she showed here.... I have no words. THIS IS SO IMPRESSIVE. It's like she can turn gravity off at will. Hold on. Hold on a second, oh my god.
This woman is the most incredible gymnast/dancer I've ever seen -- I'm in awe of her!
Well don't be, that is a male. Read my longer post.
inspire734 hey, no one's reading every comment you're dropping and trying to find your long post 😂
me too, I felt that
She’s a stripper / poke dancer and you are in awe of her? I’d pay more attention if she took off her clothes.
@@williamwade3443 Her athletic abilities are worth being in awe of!
And tell us how you know she's a stripper and "poke" dancer? I didn't see any mention of that either "art form" in the video's information...
BTW, what's a "poke" dancer?
And why wouldn't I be in awe of what she's trained her body to do? Is there something degrading and debasing about being a stripper? Please tell us what that might be.
Who wishes they were that strong and flexible.....
ME me me!!
I'm that flexible (unfortunately) but not anywhere near that strong. That looks like it would be incredibly hard work and yet she makes it seem effortless at the same time.
i can touch my toes..... almost
I’m strong and can climb pretty fast on those poles but I am no way flexible:,( I need to practice bc I wanna be graceful like that
Ohmygoodness- I was hoping for a next life to have that control & strength! The 4th time i watched, a muscle in my twitched in pain!!! Her artistry is based on STRENGTH & CONTROL - never saw any pole dancing like that in my life!
How I feel when I'm on my bed reaching for my phone charger
Hope is a virtue, now THAT’s funny!
LMAOOO 😂😂😂
Hope is a virtue 🤣🤣🤣
I just spit slim fast out my nose
😂😂
song: i’m slipping
ashley fox: standing horizontal on a pole with no hands????
Good lord. Her upper body strength is amazing
Tbh probably one of the strongest people out there. Mentally _and_ physically. You’ve gotta commit 100% and trust that your body is going to do what you tell it to when you’re literally standing on a pole, perpendicular to the ground and entrusting your life to your hands and feet. Ashley Fox deserves an Olympic gold medal for the strength and courage and perseverance even half this routine would take.
I have never seen pole dancing turn into contemporary art wow just amazing
you've been looking at the wrong kind of pole dancing my mans.
Black Phoenix I agree, this is absolute art.
She is a pole gymnast! Truly mesmerizing! What an amazing choreography and long lines. Super lyrical. 👏🥰
Pole dancing requires a significant amount of strength, flexibility, and endurance, and involves performing acrobatic and dance movements on a vertical pole. 0:18 [PolePedia]
Pole fitness does not focus on the erotic and sensual part, as pole dance can do. Pole fitness combines artistic dance, acrobatics and strength exercises and through the sport you will build up strength, flexibility and endurance. 1:01 [Pole Republic]
Like any other competitive dancing, Pole-dancers have to go through rigorous training and their bodies take a heavy toll during competitions. 2:56 [Global Sports Policy Review]
The IPSF has developed standardized rules and regulations for competitions, ensuring fairness and safety for athletes worldwide. Through their efforts, pole dancing has gained recognition from international sporting bodies and has now earned its place on the Olympic stage. 3:13 [Vertical Wise]
Simply extraordinary! 4:00
She seems to deft the laws of gravity. Just floating in the air.
Like the standing on the side of the pole??????!?!?
So amazing.. The amount of strength that is needed to do it and the beauty. Wow.
Somebody get this woman a contract with Cirque du Soleil! This was incredible!
can't believe people have the audacity to dehumanize and degrade pole dancers as nothing more than sex dolls when this woman exists. ashley fox is super human.
i agree 100%!! i respect pole dancers so much, they deserve to be treated right.
Someone that would say that is absolutely an idiot, and I wouldn’t pay them any mind they’re useless
Sum girls give it a bad name
*Meanwhile* I'm all SUPER careful trying not to slip and kill myself getting outta the shower 😳
LITERALLY 😭😩
hahaha
Glad I’m not the only one 😂
😂😂😂
LOL!!!
Never mind the pole work which was brilliant and beautiful, this was one of the most beautiful dance routines I have ever seen. An exquisite perfect storm of grace, strength, perfect curves & A fabulous role model.
Well said. 💞 definitely agree.
Anyone else tear up when they see really good dancers? For some reason this is the only art form that can make me cry when it’s done well.
I know this is super late but i just watched this for the very first time and i was literally wondering why i have freaking tears in my eyes !🥺 It’s so beautiful
@@debbiem6172same here, and i keep watching her face -- she keeps her face so soft, and regal... pure magic.
I have tears ,! So happy I’m not the only one . So much passion
This isn't my first time watching this video but holy SHIT did I tear up. She's like an angel (if you believw in those) with how graceful her moves are!
Wow Ive never seen pole dancing this way. It’s actually really beautiful.
I haven't gasped and exclaimed at a routine like that in a while! Absolutely flawless
Einstein: "the celestial law of gravity states...
Ashley: *begins performing
Einstein: "you know what nevermind"...
hahaha
😂💯🎯
This was one of the best routines I've seen, what an amazing woman. All of her tricks were so fluid and beautiful transitions. Off to try and find her on IG now. 🙈
The way she moves, precise and agile, seems so effortless! Even when doing some of the most difficult moves I’ve ever seen in my entire life, she still makes it seem so easy and beautiful at the same time! Great job!!!
She’s in my top five list of people to take on my team if a zombie apocalypse ever occurred.
Justice2Hearts Hahahaha that’s great xD
Are you kidding? If she gets infected you are screwed.
I've never watched a pole performance before! It was poetry in motion!!
This is the best one I've ever seen, so I'm glad it was your first!
No idea why I got this in my suggestions, but THANK YOU UA-cam! WOW! Best pole performance I've ever seen!
This is AMAZING! I thought she was suspended by wires at the beginning. The strength and control to defy gravity is mind blowing. What incredible athletic prowess and grace!
Lots of people think pole dancing is stripping, but pole dancing can be so beautiful and elegant, even more prettier than dancing on the ground
Exactly. It has a very big community of acrobats and all kinds of dance elements you could think of. "Stripping" or exotic dancing is rather just a small part. Modern Dance, Ballet, Hip Hop, Breack Dance are also very common styles.
It's kinda funny how many people comment here on the video like it's something extraordinary, but it exists as art and sport since years exactly like in this video. (is this video trending or was it mentioned somewhere?) Pole dance / pole acrobatic videos like this exist since years in all kinds of styles, professional levels and beginners. And with all kinds of dancers since this community is far more accepting than most of the commenters under this video. This community is not just very feministic we also welcome all genders, sexualitis, bodyshapes, skincolors etc. I love that about this sport.
Stripping can also be beautiful and elegant. What the hell is with people using this as a forum to shit on strippers??
Stripping while pole dancing doesn't make it any less beautiful and elegant. The audience watching might respond differently, but the dancing is still lovely.
Strayfox, you make an excellent point about this and I wish the art and elegance of this would catch people’s attention more often. It’s 2019 and still there’s a stigma attached to this and many more things. I’ll be honest, I’m not one of those people who hears pole dancing and automatically assumes the person is taking their clothes off and making money but I am ignorant about the different aspects of it. Just watching this video you can see that this woman is crazy talented and that she works hard, probably day in and day out. It’s a shame they don’t get more recognition..
@@viciousleash7645 I highly disagree. Stripping while pole dancing are literally just meant to make men hard, only feminists think it's compatible to ballet or something that's actually lovely to look at. It's not elegant or beautiful 😂 THIS IS, but not the stripping part. Maybe if you're getting off to it, sure.
So fluid and strong and beautiful! I'm happy that the U.S. Championships don't make the women wear super high heels and lingerie like some other countries. Ashley would NOT be able to do many of those amazing feats (such as the breathtaking standing on pole sideways!) with platforms on! BRAVA!!
Pole is beautiful and strong in and out of heels. Ashley can do it with or without.
I mean, I could accidently kick you in the face if you came up to tip me tho. But personally, I can casually sit at the top of a pole & put my hair up. & Also, oh hi. Ppl have said it looks like I'm floating or that I make ppl feel like their on e ( not getting a dance 😑). But yeah, this is way harder than what it looks like. She's on another level. Also, I highly doubt that most ppl here could do it themselves either. Let alone the "simple" sh
The "Oh my god" at 3:16 😂😂
3:17me too OMG
Literally... how?!
She's pushing with one foot, pulling with the other, and using a whole lot of core strength to stabilize.. wow!
powers oooh!! Shes a beast as well!! She once did that move in heels 🤯
The Emmasculator how in the actual fuck did she do that. Like gravity tosses me around on the floor but this?
This was INSANE!! Insane in that I had no idea these tricks could be done! There were times I had to go back ten seconds just to make sure I saw what I saw. FANTASTIC job!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
How does she do that? It’s like she’s doing ballet in the air! And her movements match the music beautifully. If youtube still had a star rating system, I would give this a 5/5.
The human body is incredible.. this was amazing
I concur
I love how I’m a broke college student and this pops up on my recommended

THank you.
Yes! I saw the musical and this comment is funny 😂
wow! This is just amazing... This girl really shows u what its really like to have beauty and art on a dance pole. I would have to say she put on the best performance I've ever seen in pole dancing. She perfected it to every turn and flip, flexibility was on point, and most of all that really caught my eye is how she made it look so easy and great her moves flowed from beggining to the end... Absolutely flawless! ❤ it... Well done 😉
Yes, this is the best performance I have yet to see EVER. And believe me, it is tremendously difficult
The artistry, strength, flexibility... just pure INSPIRATION. 😲🥰😲😲🥰😲🥰🥰
And the way she walked off the stage like she didn’t just melt my brain... 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾Give this woman her👑
Her flexibility is freaking insane. Wow!
That should be in the Olympics
Right on. It sure as hell is more of a sport than freaking "polo."
The community and associations are actually working on it.
And @Alicos Smallwood: friendly reminder that the world isn't just america. The last time i checked the Olympics were international... and please use your brain. Did this woman in this video strip herself naked? Did she offer her body sexually to another human being? Or did she perform an acrobatic dance that involved strength and flexibility? And if you are pissed at the lack of clothing, please take a look into a physics book and climb a fucking metal pole with full clothes on and try to do the things she did in her performance.
Greetings, a pole acrobat from germany
@@AnnieBoBannie421 - Have a little respect. Her outfit is hardly different from what women gymnasts use in the Olympics. As for athleticism, what she did takes huge strength, coordination and a big dose of art.
Now if you ask me about the disgusting exploitation of women in strip joints using "poles," I'm 110% repelled and offended. I think it's sick and offensive that some perverts go there. But a pole is a pole, a bed is a bed. This woman turned a pole into a canvas and made art and sport.
@@AR-ml9eo I was being respectful, but the truth is she's a nasty piece of shit, and don't you dare compare grabbing money with your pussy with gymnastics, I'm the one that's offended, so fuck on back to angry beavers or wherever these hos are working now!!! Don't bother responding, I won't read it!
@@AnnieBoBannie421 So you were being respectful when you said "Maybe you can get blow jobs in too"?
She did things I didn't even know could be done! That was AMAZING!!
she defies everything
C'est juste MAGNIFIQUE ! Quelle beauté ! J'adore...
She could've just ASKED for my wig 😭😭😭
That would have just taken away from her beauty she doesn’t need it that’s the look she wanted.
@Guyana Savannah WHWHHW Its not literal omg 😭😭😭 Im complimenting her
how many wigs do you have?
I’m a Gen Z and I’m seriously behind with these made up slangs.. didn’t even know what u meant at first.
@@crystalslayer1 the comment means they snatched her wig. lord you missed the joke
Wow. She should join cirque du soleil. Her precision and skill are amazing and she had so much expression. Adding a character to this shouldn't be hard for her. Honestly I woukd pay to see this.
This is one of the most amazing performances I've ever seen.
WoW ! One of the most amazing dance performances I've ever seen. Ms. Fox should be headlining on Broadway.
This performance was EVERYTHING !!!
the floor show was amazing and the pole show was breathtaking
This is what makes pole dancing a sport. This girl was absolutely amazing 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Oh my as a former fitness competitor this is no where close to anything I’ve trained for or seen on stage! This young lady has the strength and perfection that I’ve never seen on stage!! Wow!!!
I totally agree with you
What an amazing feat of artistry and strength. She was stunning and I could watch her perform for hours. Such grace and beauty. She made it look effortless. Thank you Ashley.
