About this listen

Zen breaks down pole dance shoes — Pleasers, Hella Heels, and heel heights — in this watch-worthy episode.

In this episode, Zen gives a practical breakdown of pole dance footwear and why your shoes matter just as much as your grip. She compares Pleasers and Hella Heels, explains how different heel heights (6”, 7”, 8”) affect your movement, and shares tips for choosing the right pair for your style and level.

This is a visual episode: if you can, watch the video version to actually see the differences between brands and heel heights demonstrated side by side.

Whether you’re a beginner looking for your first pair or an experienced dancer curious about upgrading your collection, this guide will help you find the right shoes to support both your movement and your artistry.

Upcoming Events Mentioned:

  • Harry Potter–themed comedy pole show with Christina Kalf (Zen as Moaning Myrtle) – September

  • PSO Competition in Los Angeles – September

  • Secret Pole Dance Studio Halloween Showcase – October

  • Ladies of Leisure Halloween Pole Party – October
