shley Wright performs a series of moves to the hit Disney's Lion King song Circle of Life
A mother has come under fire from online commenters after posting a video of herself pole dancing with her baby strapped to her back.
In the clip, Ashley Wright can be seen dancing to The Circle of Life, a popular Disney song from the Lion King film, as her baby is secured to her back in a material sling.
Ashley performs a series of moves as she swings around the metal pole to the music.
Alongside her video, Ashley wrote: "Decided we should do a routine together... And so thankful others could help assist me in capturing and choreographing this moment/experience."
Ashley filmed the footage at The Choreography House in North Hollywood, and mentions in the video's description that she has also performed pole dance routines while pregnant.
But viewers have slammed Ashley's routine, describing it as "dangerous" for the baby.
One YouTube user said: "This is cool and all but, at the end of the double spin after she kneels you can see the babys head comes loose from the cloth and snaps to the side [sic]."
Another added: "I couldn't care less about the fact that it's pole dancing. It's the fact that you are doing it with your child on your back. If you slip you could crush her."
Despite the backlash, some viewers were supportive of Ashley's decision.
One wrote: "I thought it was an excellent performance and I believe your beautiful daughter enjoyed it. It's a wonderful way of bonding, while expressing yourself through exercise and yoga."
Ashley has caused online outrage before after she filmed herself practising a routine in front of her daughter, aged 2, and posted it on her website Ms Wright's Way.
