Pole dance and Sexual assault
Unfortunately, many of my students and fellow polers have mentioned that they were at one point sexually assaulted. Many of them have said pole has helped them get through this experience. I want to take that postive feeling of empowerment pole gives and provide it to other people who have suffered through this.
I am organizing a free, therapeutic pole class for survivors of sexual assault (completely volunteer program). I am meeting with a psychology professor who specializes in PTSD and sexual assault to get her assistance in planning this class which is scheduled to start this fall. In order to get her full support, I need to have "evidence" backing up my claim.
I have created a survey that allows people to anonymously discuss how pole has affected their recovery from sexual assaults. It is really short- 6 questions, 2 of which are optional, and 3 are multiple choice. I would really, really appreciate I could get all of your help! Please spread this survey around among your pole communities so I can get support in this endeavor.
