    Default back, but forgot how to fake it

    I danced a while back, haven't done it in a while, and now I've started to do it part-time again. I'd been out of the game for a while, but my first night back went fine.

    The second night, however? I froze. My confidence was nowhere, which I'm sure guys picked up on, and nobody was interested. Now I'm nervous about going back since that financially disastrous night. How does everyone else fake confidence? I seem to have forgotten...

    You obviously had what it takes to be a dancer before, and you've still got it, girl!!! You just need to reclaim your inner dancer. What is it that you love about dancing? Is it the music, the people, the money, the performing? Ask yourself this question. Once you have the answer remind yourself of this everyday as you are getting ready to go to the club, on the ride to the club, while your on stage, giving LDs, etc.

    Remember that everything is this life is ultimately a state of mind. You need to get in the right mind set that will have you believing in your ability to seduce, to thrill, and to entertain any man in the club. Once you have your confidence back again you will bank!!!

    Often before work I will meditate to help will bring about this positive mind set and positive energy. You can give this a try or any other techniques you are comfortable with. Some people recite affirmations, some people listen to upbeat music, some people will drink a relaxing cup of tea.... You get the idea!

    I'm in the same situation, and it can be hard to re gain that confidence. I struggle to stay positive on the floor and keep selling dances throughout the night. Music can have such a strong impact on my mood, so I keep a cd of fast songs I can pump up to on the way to work. I sing and smile along full blast, and by the time I pull into the parking lot I feel like I just came off from an amazing stage set.

    Getting back in the swing of things has been more of a challenge than I thought it would be, hope this helps. Good luck

    I second evilevi's advice. Get in the mind prep before entering the club. Actually get ready at home. Do not spend too much time in DR. Just go in and lock your stuff up cause the other dancers will bring you down. While you are in your car in the parking lot give yourself a pep talk and then roll in and don't let anything get in your way except the rules of course.
