Stumbled on this in a German newspaper and googled some English report:

taking off their clothes in front of a wall of mirrors.

If you’re going to link to pictures of ladies in tights, baring belly buttons and cleavage, for Matzu’s sake, man, at least make sure that they’re good-looking women. If I want to ogle middle-aged Taiwanese tai-tais working out in spandex, I can do that at my local gym.
Not that any of those women were ugly or anything, just “strikingly average” to coin a phrase. Not worth the bother clicking.
I am not sure the pole pictures are actually from the classes the article talks about (though they were linked to the German article), because in there it says they won’t teach pole dance.
But I am actually disappointed, I thought we can discuss the article but all you guys are interested in are pictures of naked women. :s
The German article links to them but perhaps the newspaper took a bit of liberty and used (unrelated) pictures from the archive, which of course would be rather misleading and stupid.
There are good opportunities for Taiwanese women to earn money stripping in Taiwan, as you can see from the following YouTube videos. If women removing their clothes down to their bra and underwear in front of the camera is NSFW, then these videos are NSFW.
Wouldn’t this class ba a great opportunity for these xiaojies to get into the business of funeral stripping? No videos for this category, since it’s unlucky to watch a funeral.
Stripping at Moon Festival? There are so many kids watching, I don’t know how it could be NSFW (but it is).
Next to come is the pole dancing fitness craze. With skills learned in this class, women will be able to participate in such events as:
The NSFW big fish party. No idea why there’s such a big fish, but there’s a woman here doing some pole dancing for a rural community in Taiwan to enjoy.
These are just a small sampling from YouTube of the many opportunities that women who take these classes can take.
