FRISK is Australia's most seductive pole dancing competition, featuring incredible pole dancers in two smoking hot divisions: Amateur and Open (semi-pro/pro). We're looking for the sexiest pole dancers from across Australia and New Zealand, who will bring to life a routine that will leave people sweating in their seats! FRISK is open to all genders and those who love to showcase a more sexy style of pole dancing. The competition's focus on sensuality, dance, basework, and one standout pole combo provides a broad canvas for performers to express their interpretation of sexy, whether that’s with or without heels. Perform as a solo, duo or trio*, it's up to you! If you can leave the audience amazed and desperate for more, then this is the pole competition for you!
If performing as a duo or trio, you are judged in the same category as solos.
Frisk 2024 was everything we could have hoped for and more. The Northcote Theatre saw something it had never seen before. The audience was NEK LEVEL. The finalists KILLED IT, the pre-show party went OFF and we cannot wait to do it all again in March 2025.

MUSIC & PROPS
- Show length for AMATEUR DIVISION is 3 minutes and OPEN DIVISION is 3.5 minutes
- Any item(s) that are not attached to the performer for the entirety of the performance is considered a prop and must be included in your Production Form. Any props larger than a chair will require approval. All props must be able to be put on and taken off the stage by 2 people within 30 seconds.
- Maximum of 2 human props only. There is no limit on how long the human props are on stage. They can touch the pole, but not perform any movements where they have both feet off the ground while holding the pole. Eg: climb, mount, trick. The focus of using a human prop is that they add to your show without overshadowing you.
- No nudity
- Anything you wish to use that will leave a mess on the stage must be approved by the producers. Eg: confetti, petals, fake money. No large confetti canons will be approved, or glitter.
