Abstract: An end assembly for a dance exercise pole. The end assembly comprises: an end part; and a connector configured for connection to a dance pole. A first engagement element is connected to the connector; and there is a second engagement element engageable with the first engagement element. A movable element is movable between a first position and a second position to move at least one of the first engagement element or the second engagement element and thereby switch the end part respectively between: a first configuration with the first engagement element disengaged from the second engagement element, with the connector capable of rotation relative to the end part; and a second configuration with the first engagement element engaged with the second engagement element to restrict the rotation relative to the end part.

Abstract: A dance exercise pole has a base, a lower cylindrical section journalled for rotation on the base about a substantially vertical axis, a connector extending upwardly from the upper end of the lower cylindrical section, and a lowermost pole section having an internally treaded portion at its lower end for connection to an externally treaded portion of the connector whereby the height of the pole section is vertically adjustable. A sleeve is mounted to slide over the outside of the lower cylindrical section and may be detachably connected to the lowermost pole section.

Abstract: A dance exercise pole comprises a base (1), a lower cylindrical section (2) journalled for rotation on the base about a substantially vertical axis, a connector (3) extending upwardly from the upper end of the lower cylindrical section, and a lowermost pole section (41) having an internally threaded portion at its lower end for connection to an externally threaded portion of the connector whereby the height of the pole section is vertically adjustable. A sleeve (30) is mounted to slide over the outside of the lower cylindrical section and may be detachably connected to the lowermost pole section (41).
