No wonder why honey pot club is having issues with girls leaving - they sacked a few of there dancers today with no reasonable grounds to terminate their contract.

Club Dancers (not Showgirls) REQUIRED for HONEY POT CLUB

!!! BOOK DIRECT WITH THE CLUB !!!

(They have plenty of good reliable girls to call upon for their showgirl contracts so they really require more CLUB Girls aka "House Girls")

Since you will be a CLUB DANCER (aka "House Girl") you are not guaranteed any income per week except the income you make within the club. Things are improving for the club and private dances are starting to become easier to sell.

This is a FOUR WEEK CONTRACT. You will work four nights per week (Tue-Sat).

Return airfare from the nearest capital city in Australia will be given for full contract. Accommodation will also be given (or you can organise your own).

This contract is good for new dancers (new to the industry or wanting to travel to a safe destination) and travellors.



Just a friendly heads up. ;D They really do need a few more club dancers/house girls.

Okay. I worked the Easter week up here in Darwin. Due to Good Friday the club wasn't open tho' I (and the rest of the contracted girls) had to still do our shows and four nights in total in the club so they opened on Easter Sunday on top of Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday nights this week.

All I have to say ... WTF are they thinking?!?!? There's too many damn girls and definitely NOT enough business to justify the number of girls working up here at the moment.

I swear I would have made more this week staying home than being up here even with the base pay! I turned down alot of private party work on top of whatever I would have earnt in the club. GRR!!!

Stay the hell away from Honey Pot this time of year. It seems they are flooding the club with girls and there is not enough business for everyone to come out with good money.

Even the ones making money every night are working to the bone as such.

Here's a tip: The ONLY way you are going to make ANY money in this club is to be able to be an agressive hustler who isn't afraid to make enemies of the other girls by being an agressive hustler.

Yes. I am NOT happy with this whole situation.

.....................and it isn't just me that is pissed about this situation.


The new dancer accommodation is located closer to town and the club... within walking distance or $10 return taxi fare. It's a four bedroom house. Pool. Kitchen upstairs. Two toilets (one upstairs, one downstairs). One bathroom with two showers. Outside shower near pool. Plenty of "yard". Balcony upstairs is huge!

One bedroom upstairs, the other three downstairs. If you can, choose the bedroom that is upstairs or the one near the stairs downstairs as they are the ones with in-built air conditioners ... the rest aren't so 'comfortable'.

Two single beds in each room so you are expected to share the room with someone. TV. No DVD player - BYO.

Tiled throughout.

I will post photos of the dancer accommodation and the room I am within (at least) when I am home.

My first week was much better due to acquiring private party/OTC the club work thru the club yet the club itself still suffered from having too many dancers working at the same time.

Other information --
3 song private dance is $60 - dancer receives $36
5 song private dance is $100 - dancer receives $100
Half hour private dance is $150 - dancer receives $90
Hour private dance is $300 - dancer receives $180

The majority of patrons will purchase a 3 song or 5 song private dance. Unfortunately, it is by the song not the time as alot of customers will count the songs even if it is one of those long dance songs the DJ has decided to play "between" stage sets.

The majority of customers also only purchase one dance. Some will purchase multiples yet due to the rules some don't feel like getting another after their initial one.

Normal stage sets are 3 songs. There is a two song (or so) break between stage sets.

Pub and Club Shows (being a SHOWGIRL) are expected to be 4-5 songs long or 15 minutes.

ADVICE/TIP: In order to make the dance worthwhile for the customer please "layer up" as such. I wore booty shorts with a GString underneath then a camisole or short dress with a bra underneath. Why? As soon as you are half naked you cannot be anywhere NEAR the customer. We all know it is the contact that sells in a no touch environment not so much the nudity so please keep your GString and Bra on as much as possible and in the last song or even half way thru the last song go topless then nude.

Also do not be afraid to ask for a tip at the start or end of the dance. Some will tip. Others will not. Don't force them "If you particularly enjoyed my dance, tips are welcome and appreciated" ;D

Okay, a friend of mine is currently in Darwin. She is working with Catwalk Promotions (private parties, pub shows, etc) as well as working at Sinsations. She figures work for Catwalk during the day and Sinsations of a night. She is NOT up there on contract - she made her own way up there.

I will update next week about her first week in Darwin and see if this sort of thing (working for Catwalk as well as working in the OTHER club, Sinsations) is working for her.

I've read all posts about honeypotclub and sinsations. But still have no idea, what club is better for money now?:-\ Cause most of posts are months old...
For me, i do not mind a bit of "touch" (not "crazy" ones) and also can deal with "meter" distance. PLZ tell me what should i choose. And how long does it takes from booking yourself till starting working?
PS Sorry if i'm bothering...

GoldCoastGirl
06-01-2007, 04:28 PM
metre not meter ! ;) it's the distance between you and the customer.

You will be hard pressed to NOT find posts that aren't months old in re Australian strip club information because only a few of us (out of the many thousands) in the industry/business post here. Only discount the information if it is over 6 months old.

As for touching, it isn't really allowed in Darwin per-say. What I hear about Sinsations is hearsay... not first hand information. It is always what I hear from other girls and patrons.... and supposedly Honey Pot is top club at the moment.

Sinsations used to be and still has money within the club just not as much anymore ... and some of the Sinners (the nickname for Sinsations) girls have moved onto Honey Pot.

You can make $0 to $500+ a night depending on the night in Honey Pot. You have to be a hustler or else you will not make any decent money as a 'house girl' at Honey Pot.

Plus sometimes you are only on stage once or twice a night so you can't rely upon stage tips for income.

If you aren't going to go do one of the contracts Honey Pot offers (they offer a contract for girls who work purely in the club, and another one for girls who want the "Showgirl" contract)... then just turn up. They will most likely hire you if you are of decent appearance.

As for which one you should choose? I can't tell you that. All you can do is try one or the other for a little bit .... and make your own decision.

Update about Sinsations Darwin.

No flights or accommodation provided, not hard to organise accommodation tho', good working conditions, only 4 girls on every night, no door fees or ridiculous fines, easy to make 2 grand a week with your eyes closed.


I received this text from a girl who is currently working in Darwin at this particular club today.

I'm off to Darwin on the 9th :dance:

It is to work with Catwalk as I want to see what it is like working with them since my last experience with Honey Pot was so sour. I like Darwin and really would like to make a go of it up there so I can reguarly go there each year. Shame Honey Pot went to crap.

It's a three week contract (nothing less). They contacted me as a girl currently up there told them about me (recommended me). ;D

First week doing catwalk contract.

It is a three week circuit/contract - no shorter. You do have the option of staying on longer yet not as a circuit girl thus you will only get mainly waitressing etc from the agency if you do stay on...

You stay at the 'dancer accommodation' with the 'boss lady'. The dancers staying here (limited to three at any one time) do get run of most of the house except for one section that is totally off-limits. This is where G (the boss lady) lives.

TIP: BYO can opener and sharp knife (or else buy one) as these were the two items that were lacking in the kitchen.

The kitchen is pretty decent. Microwave, free coffee/tea/milk/sugar, plenty of cutlery, bowls, plates, oven, grill, toaster and so on. Plenty of pantry space and everyone generally doesn't touch each other's food unless invited or permission is given. There is plenty of free food (fridge and pantry) available from what is left over by other entertainers who have stayed previously. Just keep an eye on the use by dates ;)

One room has a double bed and plenty of space thus is the main room yet you have to use the bathroom 'down the hall' as there isn't an ensuite in this room. It is only the shared room (two single beds) that has the ensuite and 'walk in wardrobe' that leads onto the ensuite. Great shower - feel free to have a nice long shower as Darwin doesn't have water restrictions. ;D

Havn't had a chance to use the bath in the 'hallway' bathroom as I havn't found a plug for it yet! Yet it is pretty decent (by the looks of it) if you find a plug for it.. use it. lol.

Drivers are provided. Frankie is the main driver and he is a true professional and fantastic! For those who are similiar to me and used to doing everything themseles (driving, carry-ing bags, stereos etc) to private parties... this is a god-send! It's wonderful. He refuses to let you carry your own stuff.. He'll carry the bags, rugs, etc.

If you have a manual (or open) driver's license you will be able to have permission to use one of the 'catwalk cars' to save yourself taxi fares.

ONLY DO THIS CONTRACT IF YOU DO XXX SHOWS.

I emphasise this as that is where the real money will be made during this contract. The main work is the circuit (pub shows) as that is the 'guaranteed' money however, as we all know, the pub shows are there to be used as a way to advertise ... and get those parties whilst you are here in Darwin.

Due to this, it is a must (as I'm finding out) to have at least one great photo that can be printed up to a decent poster size... you can then hand this out at the venues and have it stuck up at the venues... promotion is key here.

Plus if you have any titles or magazine credits.. use them as well. It makes people be interested in you especially if you are new to Darwin.

The 'circuit' starts on Tuesday night with "Tits Out Tuesday" at one of the nightclubs where you are a T.O.T dancer/girl. You are the part of the 'team' of girls that gets your tits out throughout the night as you dance around the club. There are 'spots' to dance.. on the main stage (with the poles so pole work comes in handy), on the bars and on the podiums. You circulate thru the different spots throughout the night getting your tits out at random moments.

It seems wearing something skimpy and/or hawaii/beach themed will work well.

Wednesday is when the pub shows start .. Howard Springs. One solo show (alternates each week who does the solo show) and then the duo/double. The duo is simulated/tame lesbian stuff - NO PENETRATION, NO XXX.

Thursday introduces you to Hidden Valley and Palmerston Tavern. If you have done the Honey Pot contract, approach Hidden Valley as you would Parap. Seriously. Similiar sort of 'hard to get to be loud' type of crowd on Thursday.

Palmerston Tavern, on the other hand, is wonderful! They always seem to love the shows be it solo or duo.

TIP: Come prepared with heaps of costumes! At least 6 costumes is a minimum to really be able to work this circuit. I used School Girl, Nurse and Cheerleader in my first week.. will be using Cop, Firewoman, Glamour or Tiger in my second week.

The great thing about Howard Springs is that you can 'recycle' costumes there since you only really do it once a week unlike Hidden Valley. Hidden Valley is the main pub show venue where you WILL be doing most of the shows. If you know any pole work, feel free to use the pole that is there on the stage. Be fore-warned that it is one of those 'moving' poles... the type that spins around. It is NOT static. Thus the reason why I'm not using it much due to being so used to static poles (and very unsure due to lack of experience with 'moving' poles).

If you have any troubles, problems, and so forth Frankie the driver is a pleasure to speak with ... I just want to re-itterate at how much he really does give a fuck about you (the entertainers). He will look out for you, your costume and so forth. He is also there if you need an ear to listen.. plus since he has dealt with ALL SORTS of personalities.. if you are an introvert, don't really want to speak or whatever.. he's cool.


As you can tell from this post (and other posts whilst I've been in Darwin) you do have access to the internet via the "company computer". This way you can create music for your shows as well as do what I'm doing.. just be on the internet.

The only :( is that you can only use it outside of office hours and only when no one else is using it. Luckily for me I'm the only internet freak here at the moment... the other two girls here love to party etc too much.

Oh yes, you are allowed to drink (consume alcohol) ... yet do so RESPONSIBLY. Get plastered on nights or days you don't have to work the next night/day.

There is also a great tattoo studio Catwalk can reccommend if you want to get a tattoo whilst up here. The other circuit girl (Trinity Porter) up here at the moment got a tattoo the other day and it is looking damn good. Great work.

The private party work is generally shared... alternated just like the circuit work.

More information about the house where you stay: There is a pool, plenty of room in the front and backyards if you want to do anything (in my case hula hoop), a verandah, patio etc to hang out on.. plus two dogs and a few birds. If you don't like dogs, this is not the place for you. Don't be afraid of them as they are darlings. Ishta is male and old and hangs with G (the boss lady) generally. He doesn't do much yet loves a pat. The younger dog is female and called Flo .. she may be full of energy yet don't be afraid of her. She has had obediance training (or at least knows the basics).. yeah.. I totally want to take her home with me. She loves company, loves to know what's up/happening, etc. She knows not to even try to scavenge food from you.

TIP IN RE THE DOGS: Ishta is protective of the property (Flo not so much) so if you go out and then come home.. say his name when you walk thru the gate until you reach a lighted area or else he may think you are an intruder.

I think I've covered everything? Any questions please feel free to PM me.

(damn, just looked up airfares so i can get home as only the airfare TO darwin is included in this contract... going to cost me just over $400 to get back home ..at least it is tax deductible and i'll get 'points' since i will fly back virgin blue - i despise jetstar .. so i'm willing to pay more to go with virgin)

Heads Up!

If you work for Honey Pot and then "jump the fence" like I did... there is NO going back. The only way to get around the crap is to not be well known as being working in Darwin... so if you are a new girl working for Catwalk then you may be okay with getting into Honey Pot as a patron (on your night(s) off) .... yet if you are similiar to me and have been up to Darwin (even if it is as a Honey Pot girl like I was til I jumped the fence) then don't be surprised that you will be denied entry even as a patron into Honey Pot.

They'll think you are a spy. Even tho' all I wanted to do was go in for an hour or two to have a drink and say HI to the girls, hang out with my friends and maybe say HI to the Greek Boys as well.

I shake my head in disbelief that they could be so petty. I wanted to be a patron nothing more nor less... I was there as me, as an individual not as a "catwalk girl". Sheesh! *roll eyes*

So.. yeah.. if you work for Catwalk there is no working for Honey Pot. It is one or the other up here.

Sinsations on the other hand couldn't care less as long as you turn up to work and work (don't get plastered drunk etc). It supposedly can be very good money within Sinsations without the BS of Honey Pot... then again it can be like any other strip club... you will make bank one week, and then struggle the next. Another thing in re Sinsations.. if they don't have any (or enough) girls turn up to work they will close the club for the night.

As for quality of girls? All varieties as there is a girl up here who used to work at Hollywood Showgirls on the Gold Coast. I knew her prior to all that and she is hot.. yet at the same time there are other girls I know working there that aren't so hot.. more 'average'... so all sorts.

Also.. I totally recommend Throbe nightclub esp. the 1.30am Fri/Sat show if you can make it into town in time for it ;D

....this is a great website. now i can't hide. damnit. :laughing:

now you know where i spend most of my time on the internet....

i was a little defensive as i've been a member of this board for many years and it has been invaded by "trolls" numerous times thus i'm (unfortuantely) instantly suss with profiles with nothing much to them until I get to know the "profile" (aka person) better ;D

it's all good :)

:laughing: I found out today that my being shunned (not allowed inside The Honey Pot) that Friday night I was out on the town... it was all the doing of one person. Col. Anyone who has done the Honey Pot contract will understand. Man is that guy so full of himself! :roll eyes:

So yeah. Whilst, imo, my experience wasn't overally positive and/or lucrative (besides the base/guaranteed pay thanks to the pub shows)... it was for the other girl. So this is just my experience.

I want to emphasize: Each girl will have her own unique experience. Do not judge this contract on my experience. Read my previous post about this contract (post #63) and decide for yourself. :)

(As for me, I'm not ready to give up on Darwin just yet. I have learnt from this contract what is required of me and my limitations and so forth .. and will take those lessons with me into the next time I do the contract. A big one is posters... either have an image or two I can use for posters or else have posters already made up that I can use in re promo. Plus if you have ANY titles or magazine credits or what-not... use them.. as I will next time especially in the first week. Yes I do wish I had a better experience yet at the same time would I have learnt as much about myself etc without having those struggles.. without putting myself outside my comfort zone ?? i doubt it...)

Thank you Madam Lush for hosting me at your place. ;D Tell Flow and Ishta I miss them and promise to bring treats for them next time (Smackos!!). I hope I will be more prepared and just better next time around (if you will have me). Please understand that I was totally outside my comfort zone the entire time.. now that I know what this contract is all about... i'll be a hell of a lot more "at ease" thus you will get the best from me.

Seeking an update on an old thread:


Can ANYONE attest to the validity that Sinsations in Darwin is closed down FOR GOOD ? The word on the grapevine is that unlike previous years it is not going to re-open in the dry season and is closed down for good.

I'm really hoping this is NOT true ! I really wanted to give it a go and not have to go back to the Honey Pot if I want to work in Darwin.

Anyone?

I wanted to give Darwin a try over 10-14 days by working at Sinsations during its Dry Season. I'm basically trying to come up with back up plans in case a gig I'm doing now doesn't work out in June/July.

Hello Gold Coast Girl,
Mumma G here, yes Sinsations in Darwin is closed for good, I had it offered to me to start up this year but I'm about to go into Launceston in Tasmania, as well as Catwalk up here in Darwin. If you need anymore info please feel free to ring me 0417793521. If any of the girls on this site would like to come up to Darwin just call me also if you have any queries. I will answer your questions with honesty and respect.

Take Care GCG

Hey Madam Lush

Hows the "children" ?? I hope they are well! Miss the darlings! :)

Will give you a call very soon! Glad to see you around :) :)

:( Not good news about Sinsations as now Honey Pot "rules the roost" .. which is a shame! They are a rip-off !!! Well, they weren't as good as they were at the beginning... now they are seen as greedy. Yet because they are the only strip club now.. no one says anything except "behind" their back.

I miss Darwin. Loved it up there (during the dry)....

Honeypot Darwin 2013
My fav. club in Australia. Management/security/barstaff/house girls are awesome. (Only bitchyness I experienced was from out of town dancers).

There are no fees/tip outs. It is a percentage club 40/60. It starts at 3 songs for $70, 300 for full hour.

Slow on weekdays, but not unlikely that a few guys will spend some money on you if work the room and aren't lazy. Weekends were always good. Very mixed clientele. A lot of regulars, businessmen from out of town, contract/construction workers, military, tourists. I worked during the dry season June-August, so a lot of people come up for the weekend for different events, racing, festivals, ect. Found selling dances fairly easy, lots of extensions as well.

It is a club with a classy atmosphere, but they weren't too picky about outfits/makeup/hair. Supposed to be evening wear until midnight, but I saw plenty of girls wearing slutty dancer "dresses", so they are not too strict on this. No G-strings on the floor.

Stages are 3 songs, topless, not full-nude by the last song. You can get off the stage during the first 2 songs with your gear still on and give lap dances for tips. Customers will happily tip you here for this, good money around the stage and will get you dances later. One spinning and one static pole.

This is a "no-touching" club, but the back area is pretty private with staff only walking around to take drink orders and tell dancers when their time is up. There are partitions in between a lot of the chairs/lounges, so you can have some semblance of privacy. No-touching basically means that you can touch the customer but they can't touch you, so you can get away with giving mostly an air-dance if that is what you are comfortable with, although customers of course enjoy having you on their lap and will appreciate you touching them to the extent that you are comfortable. Since it is pretty private you can get away with a lot and I did see many girls giving "extras" like grinding or motorboating, but you don't have to. Plenty of girls make good money without very much contact at all.

Open Tues-Sat. 7pm-3am (or whenever your lap dance ends). You will be scheduled at 9pm most nights, so only a short 6 hour shift, but can make plenty in those 6 hours (2.5k a week).

Overall, would happily work the whole dry season in Darwin again. Hope this helps. Feel free to pm me any questions. Ta.
