Finding a suitable exercise & dance area
Place a chair beneath the location where you have
identified your Joist OR imagine a fully assembled
pole beneath this spot.
Fully stretch both your arms & place one hand on the
chair/imaginary pole and walk around it in a circular
motion.

Fig. (3.4)
Whilst rotating around the chair/imaginary pole you
must not hit or touch anything else in the room.
This area will enable you to fully extend your arms &
legs when using the pole.
TIP: Measure a circle with a diameter (measured from one point of a circle across to another) of
approximately 3000 – 3500mm (120" – 138") and locate your pole in the centre of the circle.
Now you have found a suitable exercise area & the ideal spot for the installation of your pole.

Measuring the Height of the Ceiling
Accurately measure the height of the ceiling at the point of use
and match the ceiling height to the pole height on the chart [Fig 1.2]
TIP: If longer extensions are required (than those supplied in
the standard set), then a key point is to minimise the number
of extensions & joints used for a given height requirement; i.e.
if the required extension length is 500mm – it is better to use:
1 x 500mm extension & 1 x X-Joint rather than
2 x 250mm extensions & 2 x X-Joints.

CAUTION: Home poles are not suitable for studio use.
