Pole dancing makes its way to Harare clubs

HARARE — Pole dancing has come to many of Harare’s hangouts and clubs where patrons turn up in large numbers to watch young women wearing very skimpy and revealing clothing dance on poles. This new dancing craze has pushed the dance groups that used to be popular at these joints into the background; no one knows if this is a passing craze or something a little more permanent.
