Pole dancing was originally made by knocking on boards on rice jars. Because the trough is too heavy to move easily, it gradually becomes a long stool. Every year from the first day of the first month to the sixteenth day of the first month, all villages play with bamboo poles, and they don't play after the sixteenth day of the first month. In some places, people use bamboo poles instead of wooden poles and shoulder poles. Several ancient copper coins are tied at both ends of the bamboo pole, praying for good weather, abundant crops, prosperous people and animals, good luck and so on. The knock on the door is crisp and pleasant.
There is no limit to the number of people performing pole dancing, and it must be an even number, which can be two, four or six people. According to the concept of tap dancing, dancers stand on both sides of the stool with poles in their arms. Sometimes the vertical handles collide with each other, and sometimes the horizontal handles collide with the surfaces at both ends of the stool. Sometimes two people collide with each other on the benches on both sides, and sometimes they can turn around, one in a group and four in the middle. In terms of rich ideas, they are complex and changeable, with lively and compact rhythm and vigorous movements.
Most pole vaulters are women. When playing with a shoulder pole, people stand on both sides of several benches, each with a shoulder pole, knocking on the bench or beating each other. Its rhythm is fast and slow, and its flapping method is different.
