The 'Bride Wars' star recently had the sexy apparatus installed in her home and has already mastered a series of body-bending moves.
A friend said: "She's so proud of it. She was laughing and giddy like a kid when the thing was installed! She holds on with both her arms and flips her legs into the air. It's kind of amazing and totally sexy."
The 29-year-old actress has not always had a smooth ride with her erotic hobby.
While pole-dancing in 2006 for her then-husband, Black Crowes singer Chris Robinson, Kate pulled leg muscle and suffered friction burns on her arm.
The blonde beauty recently sparked romance rumours after visiting ex-boyfriend Owen Wilson "religiously".
Kate, who has dated the actor on and off since 2006, has been spotted at Owen's Malibu home several times in the past two weeks.
