I walk sexy sometimes, which is weird cuz I wear big loose hoodies and skirts so you can't tell I'm swinging my hips...

I find myself lowering my head to look UP at random guys and getting that smile on my face before I think NO! No need to flirt with random guys OTC!

is there a how-to somewhere? it sorta looks like fun lol. and no one does it in the clubs down here.



When I was taught, I was told to stand with your knees locked, and act as if you're rubbing out a cigarette with your heel, without moving your foot.


Worked for me. :)

Can I do the booty clap? Yes. Do I do it? NO. Not unless Luke himself sets up a video shoot at my house and I have reason to believe I've been cast in a remake of "The Player's Club".

I never liked it either. But I still want to be able to do it.

How do you do it without moving your feet and hips???

You start by doing that until you work the movement up to your quads (I think those are quads). And a lot of girls are still moving their legs when they do it.

what weird mannersims have you picked up from dancing??


i dont think ive ever seen a dancer who doesnt do the 'big step-big step- little step-big step' stripper walk on stage. you know, that weird shuffle walk we somehow pick up.

and i noticed years ago, i picked up a weird walking around the pole backwards thing, from a club i worked in where every dancer did that move.

i know EXACTLY what the shuffle walk is.

i started doing it one day (around 2 years ago) and was like "wait.. what????" and i've never been able to stop since. it's like it secretly invades you. wtf is that?

just like how one day i found myself doing the "my arms can't touch the sides of my body while im turning around thing" you know, when you kind of hold them out away from you while you spin?

and the putting your hands on top of your breasts, like above them a bit, and kind of smooshing them together while lifting them up?

i noticed i picked that one up without trying too.

also, the thing where (when touching your breasts, outter thighs, ass, whatever) you kind of put each finger down one at a time (fluidly.. not choppy) on your skin instead of just the whole hand at once. it's hard to explain, but you know what i mean?

and i can clap my ass without shaking my ankles/feet. you use your thighs. although, i'm skinny so my knees still move a bit when i do it.

i also have that very obvious and deep hip-sway when i walk, but i had that before i was stripping. i think it's just my body shape. i've always had people point out "my walk" and even when i first started dancing, guys would come up to the stage to tip me and say they "just wanted to watch me walk" heh

I do the swing-leg-clocky thing. I shake my ass while on all fours (like rocking your hips really quickly). I toe-drag. I stand at the edge of the stage before a customer and bend over. And I molest that pole nightly. ;D

Does anyone else do the limp wrist? while you twirl around the pole, bending your hand at the wrist. Kinda like, and hate to say it, the old gay thing. I know several girls who do this, including me.

I don't remember if I used to do it. I remember seeing it a lot though.

I know what you mean! Every time I hear that song "She's a Brickhouse" I think its time for a birthday special!

HAA!! For me it's that shitty KLF song. I think it's called "3am Eternal"?

I do this! I also do something I call the "sidewinder" where I sort of walk a little sideways but still sexy as I'm reaching for something (usually a pole) or turning around a corner.
...

i totally do the sindwinder too, i unlearned other way s to get around corners, and i consciously turn on the stripper wiles whenever i want something, touching the arm, nodding..

Yep I can't stop calling people "darlin." Drives The Hubby nuts! And I make WAY more eye contact than I ever used to before dancing, which is all to the good IMO. But the random shaking my ass to whatever music is on--yep that's gonna get me in trouble someday soon.

I gotta say, reading this thread has inadvertently taught me a lot about dancing! I'm gonna really pay attention to how I walk--I usually do what I think of as a "ponygirl walk" where I lift my feet really high and strut. I'll have to try the shuffle out too and see what works.

i do. and i hate it. it feels pretty stupid looking, but i never notice till it's already up there.

i don't think i have any club -> otc mannerisms. most of the stripperish stuff i do otc, i did before i started stripping. i think.

not bending ur knees when bending over anywhere

when bent over, wiggling my butt, or making it clap.....in the grocery store

grabbing my boobs, my girls boobs...

like minahsky said, turning on the "stripper" charm to get what u want. or i'll be at dinner with my girl friends, and i'll try to catch the eye of the old business man in the next table, like im gonna work him there???....actually it's worked a couple times with our tab being taken care of, or drinks sent over, just from a lil eye contact or wink...lol. like i gotta know when to turn stripper/work mode off sometimes i think...lol

I automatically cut off conversations with guys who aren't attracted to me. Like something unconcious in my head is like, "he's not into you, you're wasting your time, NEXT." It's like an actual aversion, and I think it prevents me from having male friends who aren't trying to fuck me.

The way I dance in normal clubs. Probably because I never went out dancing before I was a stripper so this is the only way I 'know' how to dance. Slower and more sensual than the civilians dancing like they are having a seizure. It really stands out in a normal club setting, I can't help it!

This is definitely me!! The guys i end up dancing with absoloutely love it tho!

If anyone had asked me before I started dancing whether I would ever flirt or use my sexuality to get what I want, I would have been uncomfortable with the idea. But I find that a lot of the skills I've learned getting guys to give me money to see my ta-tas translate quite well in the real world, too.

In my dayjob, I'm a freelancer/independent contractor, so I'm having to sell myself and my ideas to other people all the time. I don't flash my tits at people to get them to sign contracts (at least, I haven't so far) but I do use a lot of my hustle skills to get people excited about my work and interested in giving me money/helping me with projects/working for me for free.

Like, this morning I had a meeting with an older woman who is much better known than me in my field. I'm pretty sure she doesn't want to sleep with me, but lots of direct eye contact, posivite talk, and subtle flattery got her to lend her name to my project (which will be a HUGE help), talk me up to her contacts, and even do some free work for me over the holidays. I don't know if the old me could have done this.

I guess what I've learned is just the skill of putting myself over. It's like flirting, but not sexual, or only very subtly so.

Oh, and I unconsciously move my ass to whatever music is playing wherever I happen to be. In line at the grocery store for instance. My bf has asked me repeatedly not to grind him in public. Wet blanket.

I never liked it either. But I still want to be able to do it.

How do you do it without moving your feet and hips???
For me, it's all in the knees. I keep my feet completely planted and sort of half-rotate my knees in and out while keeping my legs locked straight. I do the horizontal back-and-forth one too.

11-18-2007, 09:29 AM
when im standing in line, bank, grocery store, gas station. i always lock a knee and shake my leg so my ass wiggles. its like a nervous habit now. i call it the"stripper shakes".

I cant stand up normally anymore. When I squat down to pick something up say...I stand up stripper-style...knees bent, hands on thighs, rotating ass out....I dont even realize i'm doing it until someone points it out!!

Kaiyla
11-18-2007, 09:11 PM
hahaha!! My bf hates when I bend down stripper-style, he's always saying "bend your knees!!"
I also dance like a stripper when I am out and still apply my make-up in stripper-esque fashion when going out as well. The norm.;)

I pretty much do all o fthe above. I also fold my dollars in half and wrap them between my fingers when I'm waiting in line to pay at any store. I can pretty much guesstimate how much money is in a neat little pile with a glance.

I was thinking about this thread at work and trying to think about the stuff I do besides what's already been said, and I noticed that me and a bunch of other girls I work with do this: I don't know if I can really describe this but I noticed that I do this thing where I rotate one knee in and then the other. On tippy-toes: knee in, knee out, other knee in, knee out. Its like the stripper Hokey-pokey. I don't think anyone is gonna get what I'm talking about, but most girls do it at my club, and I've seen girls do it at a lot of clubs. I wish it were easier to describe!

Glad to know it's not just me...my friends and I are always getting drinks sent over and our meals taken care of. Some guy paid for all my clothes in a store and my friend almost died! ROFLMAOOOOOO...it was more fun than in the club, though I didnt' have to worry about being nice to him after and making him a regular...

My friend is always taking me with her when she goes shopping..she's like, "I'm sorry, but men lose their minds around you...". Last year we got $3000 worth of Christmas presents for less than $100.

Manager gave me HUGE discounts...ROFLMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

It was like, "Oh, look at this, it's got a mark...90% off". "Oh, it looks like someone tried to open this...let's do $90 off of $100" "Oh, you missed the sale last week? 50% off of 40% off sounds good, right?"

It was simply ridiculous. But fun...Now she's like, "Can we go do it again this year?"

I don't know if this counts but I fold my money longways and wrap it around my middle finger. I've been dancing forever and I'm so used to holding my money that way at work. I sometimes am standing in the grocery store or a bar with my money like that. OOPs. Dead give away.

I'm pretty sure I've seen girls here do that.

Here's one I've only seen at the 1st club I worked at. You're on all fours in what I call the kitty-stretch-pose (back arched, butt in the air) and you straighten your legs, so instead of being on your knees your now supported by your toes so your butts in the air still, and your elbows kinda rested on the floor and then sorta drop the hips to one side, back to center, drop to other, repeat. It's kinda hard to explain. Does anybody know what the hell I'm talking about?

Omg, a guy I just started seeing pointed out that I always stand with one hip raised up and sticking out a bit (toe pointed of course) know what i mean? Like i have a hard time standing straight-on anymore especially when I'm naked. I raise on hip up all the time to make myself look more curvy. Or if I have to walk naked in front of him, I walk on semi-tip-toe to accentuate my butt... and of course I do the semi-stripper walk ::) Haha.....
It's sorta funny that so many of us do the booty shaking moves all the time too!! It's addictive. And since I quit dancing I'm scared I'm gonna lose all those cool little movements I picked up, so I'm doing it allll the time.
Oh man, and when I was straddling him on the couch, like playfully, I started doing the one-butt-cheek moving at a time thing.. :P
He still doesn't know I was a stripper, but there are so many little things he keeps pointing out that I do that are completely stripper-related. hee hee..

I do it. And, I saw a dancer do a bad ass version of it too, but so hard to explain. She started out doing little bumps to each side and the kept raising up higher and higher, while still dropping her hips from one side to the other until she was all the way up in this, almost "downward dog" yoga position and gave one final big drop to each side. It looked good with her energetic dance style, and to the faster music.

so that one little dance move where a leg is straight you put your hips to that side, then straighten the other leg and shove your hip to the other side?
sorry, I have no clue how to explain it...
I do that all the time in public, if there is music, I'm doing the hip shovey thing...

I'm so guilty of the booty clap! I was doing that all the time even before I was a stripper! I haven't quite got the stripper shuffle down yet though! Lol! When I first began (2 months ago) I was a clapaholic and I know I was boring the hell out of the customers! Now, I know six pole tricks and I do alot better! I also always find myself listening to songs to see if they'll be good for sets! I also always dance in my damn head!

wow that's fucked up. shaking your ass and hips while facing away from the crowd and down on yr knees or elbows or whatever....that seems pretty standard.
