ADHD and pole dancing
Quote from Anita on 14/03/2026, 5:43 pmADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects attention regulation, motivation, impulse control and emotional processing. While it’s often discussed in school or work settings, it can also influence how people experience sport and hobbies, including pole dancing.
Since ADHD experiences can vary widely, it would be interesting to hear from others in the community.
A few questions to start the discussion:
Do you have ADHD, teach students or train with polers who have ADHD?
Does it affect your training and if so, how?
Do you find certain teaching styles or training structures work better for you?
Have you noticed any strengths ADHD gives you?
Have you experienced any specific challenges?
Feel free to share your experiences, it would be great to learn how different polers are affected and how they manage.
