Created by actress Sheila Kelley (LA Law, Sisters, and a host of film and Broadway roles), S-Factor classes are wildly popular and generating an avalanche of attention from Extra, Entertainment Tonight, The Los Angeles Times, Allure, Us magazine, Fox News, and CBS's 48 Hours, which proclaimed: "Women don't even know they're working out until two months later when they say, 'I've never had a better body in my life. I'm strong, I'm limber, I feel great.'" Sheila even convinced Barbara Walters to try a pole dance on The View.
No wonder. Combining yoga, dance, and erotic movements, The S Factor is a program that tones muscle, firms the body, increases flexibility, promotes weight loss, and gives you a few new tricks for the bedroom. Illustrated in hundreds of photographs that show step by step how each move is done, the exercises are sensual yet demanding, requiring a balance of strength and finesse. There are slow, rounded warm-ups, the Spine Circles and Hip Circles. Strenuous motions, like the Rocking Cat-Cow. Peels and rolls, grinds, pounces, arches. And pole work, from the Firefly to Descending Angel.
Something else happens, too: These exercises and routines boost self-esteem and give women a new way to think about their bodies. Stripping is a liberating act, out of which comes a new look, new body, new confidence, new you. | | | Features: | |

Down to earthMay 17, 2010 I am currently in Session 1 in one of Sheila Kelley's dance studios, and this book reads very close to how my instructor teaches the class. Not too technical, literally how everyone speaks to one another. It makes it easier to work out at home as well because Sheila really breaks the moves down step by step. Granted, I don't have a pole at home, so I can't say that I would be able to teach myself any of the pole tricks, but for the floor routine it is a great buy. I am definitely going to look at her DVD's as well, just to have someone to "follow along" with.

Great Book!May 03, 2010 An instructor at a pole dancing class recommended this book. I bought it, not expecting much... but it is truly a wonderful book! It discusses things that most women are too shy or too socially repressed to discuss, and makes it feel natural to you. Although I haven't had the book long, I already feel more confident and comfortable in my own skin. I suppose it helps that I already have a stripper pole, but there are PLENTY of moves and exercises in the book that you can do without a pole and be just as confident. They are fun and sensual, but let me just put it out there: there is nothing like pole work :)
Get the book! You won't be disappointed.
enpoweringMar 17, 2010 This book is great. Besides the extra added benefit of turning your lover on, the workout is very relaxing. You feel completely limber and stress free when you are done. You feel more in tune with a better understanding of yourself.
a must own!Feb 04, 2010 perfect for those who are just coming into the world of exotic dance. there is mostly information on the art of erotic dance and striptease and not as extensive info on actual pole work. contains workouts that can be done in as little as 15 minutes and as much as 60 minutes. You will become addicted!
ExcellentJan 17, 2010 I'll make this short and simple: Excellent book and excellent DVD's; buy them. Best thing about the book is the encouragement. Read it over and over and BECOME!
