12 Pop, Chart & R&B Songs For Pole Dancing Routines
Let’s get started with…
1. Rihanna – Russian Roulette
We’re starting this list with Rihanna, and not the obvious ‘Pour It Up’. This song features a slow beat, intense chorus and the intro has a beautiful, atmospheric guitar riff.
2. Beyoncé – If I Were A Boy
This was one of the first songs I performed a routine to, years ago when I was a beginner; I had just learned to ‘Gemini’ and that was the ‘big move’ of the routine. Hah! How things have changed…
3. Sia – Chandelier
Just… incredible.
4. Hozier – Take Me To Church
A very emotional song to get into and show your vulnerable side.
5. Christine and the Queens – Tilted
Wow – you can create some amazing and unique routines with this tune from French band Christine & The Queens!
6. Eminem – Love The Way You Lie (ft. Rihanna)
Another song with a beautiful melody that will allow you to show your vulnerable side in a pole dancing routine.
7. Katy Perry – E.T.
You’re so hypnotizing… Mesmerize your audience with a routine to Katy Perry’s hypnotic pop ballad.
8. Florence & The Machine – Shake It Out
Or, you know, any song by Florence & The Machine would do…!
9. Flo Rida – Low
You can certainly have a lot of fun creating a routine to this!
10. En Vogue – Don’t Let Go
There’ll be some love-makin’, heartbreakin’, soul-shakin‘... An absolute classic from the 90s, and perfect for pole dancing! The chorus of this song would be a great time to *ahem* let go…
11. Duffy – Mercy
A unique song, with a lot of chance for creative choreography.
12. Rihanna ft. Drake – Work
