Laura Moore: A unique pole dancer



They don't diminish her confidence though as she is happy with her pole dancing. The 35-year-old sales assistant said: 'Every time I upload a new picture to Facebook or Instagram of me doing a new pole move in class I'll have some form of abuse online. 'I've been told to "go kill myself" and that "no one will ever fancy me".

The things that people say are disgusting, but I won't let it get to me. I'm happy and confident in my skin and their nasty comments will never stop me from doing what I love.'

41-year-old Laura Moore from Newcastle is a 16stone pole dancer. Having previously battled self-confidence issues, she became more confident after taking up pole dancing. She regularly posts photos of her sessions online and of course the trolls go after her.

Laura joined a pole-dancing class 18 months ago after a friend encouraged her to give it a try.

And by the time they see a doctor, often the cancer has already started to spread. Risk factors While the...

Relationship: Today’s Pressure - Aidy Thomas

  The process of socialisation has made man to live by copying others. This on its own is not a problem because coming to a place (world) where you haven’t been before, it is only safe to follow the steps of those who know the terrain. People with rich story/history telling culture do their best to pass down values to the next generation using simple stories that reflect how their forefathers lived and what they actually believed. Handing down values and belief systems has made different people unique, dynamic and peculiar- it’s a lot easier to tell even by dressing, gestures, looks or behaviour where someone comes from or would have lived for a long time to become part of that system. Apart from innate capabilities, learning and borrowing values from predecessors has a way of giving man a sense of belonging. On the other hand, man has also grown to compete, compare and conspire to outdo one another in every sphere of life. Sometimes, this occurs as secret bat...
