Summary:
Is Myrtle Beach’s hottest fitness craze too steamy for the Bible Belt?
Don’t get Teezers confused with Teazers, both located on George Bishop Parkway in Myrtle Beach. One is a strip club, the other a pole fitness and dance studio. What’s the difference? If you show up for a pole fitness class at Teezers Gentlemen’s Club, they might try to offer you a job.
What you will find at Teazers, which is inside the X Gym, are instructors who take your boring workout and give you a sensual routine that leaves you feeling confident.
Why would mimicking a stripper make a woman confident? It’s like role play. It’s a safe and more controlled way to exude sexuality without feeling cheap. They become pole artists, not pole dancers. The focus is on fitness and dance as art instead of dance as entertainment or sexual gratification of an ogling man.
“It’s not like we’re taking our clothes off or anything like that, but it makes you feel sexy when you do it,” says Megan Prevatte, a massage therapist in Myrtle Beach who enjoys relieving stress with pole fitness classes. “It makes you feel better. It’s like pole art.”
