The research, which was conducted by Dr Teela Sanders and Kate Hardy from the University of Leeds, found the vast majority of dancers citing flexibility as the main attraction of the job…And getting up and down a pole does require a fair bit of that.

Almost 90 per cent of the dancers had at least completed a further education course, while one in four had undergraduate degrees.

Just over one in three dancers were currently in some form of education.

The average dancer took home £232 per shift after paying commission and fees to the nightclub where they worked, the average annual income ranges between £24,000 and £48,000.

Nice work if you can get it.
