poleWhether you're sliding across the floor in a pole choreo class, spinning on stage in sequins, or smashing it on the sports court—your knees are taking a lot of impact. And let’s be real: bruised, scraped, or cranky knees are never the vibe. That’s where knee pads come in, babe.

At RARR™ Designs, we believe in looking cute and being supported—literally. So let’s talk about what your knees actually do, why protecting them matters, and how to find the best knee pads for your lifestyle.

🧠 Why You Actually Need Knee Pads

Your knees are one of the hardest-working joints in the human body. They’re involved in:

• Bending, lunging, squatting

• Supporting your full body weight

• Absorbing shock during dance, floorwork, jumps, and yes—even crawling in heels

Underneath that soft skin are bones (like your patella), ligaments, and a delicate joint capsule—none of which enjoy slamming into hardwood floors or stage panels, thank you very much.

Without proper protection, you risk:

• Bruising & inflammation

• Long-term joint stress or injury

• Sore AF knees after every class

TLDR: Knee pads are not “just for beginners.” They’re essential gear for anyone doing repetitive movement, floorwork, or impact-heavy training.

💡 Where You’ll Use Them

✔️ In Pole or Dance Classes (especially with floor-based choreo or exotic styles)
✔️ On Stage – for performance confidence and impact absorption
✔️ During Aerials – like lyra or hoop when kneeling in rigging transitions
✔️ In Volleyball, Gymnastics, CrossFit, Yoga, and Strength Training
✔️ At Photoshoots – they protect your knees and your look
✔️ Even at home – if you're training on hard floors or tiles

👑 How to Pick the Right Knee Pads

There’s no one-size-fits-all knee pad. That’s why RARR™ has styles for every dance vibe, fitness goal, and comfort preference. But if you’re not sure where to start, ask yourself:

1. How often do I train or perform?

More impact = more padding.
Less impact = go lighter and sleeker.

2. Am I doing pole tricks, floorwork, or both?

Grip is key! Our pole-friendly styles include gel dots or Velcro to help you stick when you spin.

3. Do I want something heavy-duty or light and comfy?

• Thick AF Pads = max protection

• Mid-Weight All-Rounders = perfect mix of support and movement

• Sleek Styles = for dancers who want padding without bulk

• Comfy Basics = great for light classes or flowy floorwork
