    Default I did it!

    Okay, I've never posted here because I wanted to actually go out and dance before I made a thread or responded to one.

    So...I just got home from my first night of dancing. It was a pretty slow night but I found a really nice customer who bought four songs from me, and I danced one song for another guy. I think I had four stage sets and I made about $40 in tips there, so after tipping club/DJ/waitstaff/door I had $100. Less than I hoped, but it was my first night and it was a Monday. The club is apparently a lot busier on weekends, although I don't think I'm working this weekend.

    My knees are going to bruise badly and tomorrow I'll probably feel like I've been hit by a bus but I'm so glad I went out and did it. I was really worried about walking in my heels but I hardly even noticed I was wearing them. It was a good time overall. I'm scheduled to go in tomorrow at 9:30, so I'm going to spend all day in bed.

    I'm a stripper!

    congrats!

    Your knees will probably be pretty bruised up. I just came out of retirement and my knees are killing me now. It's horrible. May I suggest icy/hot? I use it to help with the pain and it works real well for me. Just don't wear it a night you plan on dancing - most men are not attracted to the smell of icy/hot!

    You could also buy the icy hot patches for the knees - works pretty well.

    I wouldn't go in tomorrow, IMHO - let your knees heal up a bit and then go in wednesday. Probably better money, too.

    great to hear you did it!
    trust me... the more often you go and get used to the whole atmosphere, the easier it'll be to make money.
    are you always going to work day shifts or night shifts?
    this site is great for tips. I really feel like I've stepped up my hustle a little after reading these threads.
    good luck! :-)

    The club I'm at doesn't open till 8 pm, so it'll always be night shifts.

    Congrats! My first night dancing I made $120 and I've made more than double that ever since. I use the tips from the 'Hustle Hut' section and they work! Also watch videos on youtube to learn some pole moves. Have fun!
