    Default Help me... so nervous to dance again!

    So basically I've been away from dancing for two or so years. I really loved it when I did it and want to go back so badly. I visited the club I will be working at last night and HAVE to go in tonight (I need to make rent and I'm going away this weekend). I'm soooo nervous and scared though. I'm nervous I won't make any money, that customers won't like me, that I won't be good at it anymore.

    If anyone has any encouraging words or can help me get motivated, I would greatly appreciate it. I know I'll be fine once I get into the club and start up again... but right now I'm giving myself a million excuses as to why I shouldn't go in. I feel so pressured too... because I need to make a certain amount and I think that's messing up my motivation to go in. Like I'll be so worried all night about making enough that it will mess up my hustle. Ughh.

    If you've danced before, you should do just fine. Just think about all the good nights-postive visualization can help so much!

    You will do fine. Figure out how many dances you need to do every hour to make what you need, and try your best to get them. Have fun and be friendly, guys like that. I'll be going in tonight for the first time since Sept so I know how you feel!

    Thank you ladies! This guy (I don't know if you could call him a sugar daddy) is going to give me the money I need to hang out at a different strip club with him today and have lunch. I feel a lot better because now I can go in to work and not be so pressured as to having to make a certain amount.

    I'm so happy there are other ladies going back too! It makes me feel a lot less nervous.

    I went back after a 4 year break and was really nervous too. Mainly because of the recession and my body wasn't as good as it was when I was 23. As it turned out I'm doing much better than I did when I was younger because I'm much more confident and have more life experience I can use while working. At it only took a month or 2 to get back in shape Good luck ladies!
