    Default dancing again? in my 30s?

    I am not a total newbie, but the game has changed since 2007;bcamera phones, web cams.
    I am also older, in my 30s and I know its a young girl's game.
    However I am still in shape, and consistently told I look 25.
    I have crazy student loans and debt (don't we all), medical bills etc etc and could use a
    couple weekends of tips to help out.
    Any tips on navigating the new strip landscape?
    Am I too old for this shit? Is the risk too great?

    I will warn you that it was way easier to make money in 2007, but you can still hit good averages if you're a focused hustler.

    I am in the midwest, I traveled to WI to some dive bars. One was a biker bar, they paid you to stay for the whole weekend, no tip out (I still tipped), great security. Not a classy place by far, but I did make 4grand over st pat's weekend stage just dancing maybe 20 lapdances and weekend pay

    no doubt! Its a job...treat it like one, right!?
    I am trying to get in contact with the club from above, the original burnt down, they rebuilt. But they paid and it was low drama.
    Only expenses are travel, I don't party at work; focus on work.
    I figure my more mature conversation skills can help too.

    Notice any other differences since 2007? are cameras more of an issue?

    I think a huge difference would be the economy and the fact that internet porn is so huge now. It was then too but some of the dancers who have been around longer than me say this had really affected who is coming to the clubs and how often.

    "Young girl's game" my ass! I run circles around these n00bs. Youth is a commodity that virtually any little idget with a vagina can possess. It's not special and it fades.

    Yes. Cell phone cameras are, but bouncers are pretty on top of it. Camming is a bigger thing now, so that sort of affects the club scene to an extent.

    Lol...

    Most of the money makers in my club are 30+. The most aggressive one is in her 40s, but she makes bank. I've witnessed plenty of 30 and up ladies kill it.

    Last week I had one of my biggest nights ever, in my 7 years of dancing. I'm 35 With experience you develop these money making instincts. This year *knocks on wood* has been one of the best years.

    Good luck.

    This thread is definitely what I needed to read today. I'm in my 30's and want to start dancing in this new state I'm in. I have basically been stalking the club scene here and the girls are so young, and most surgically enhanced. It's been working on my confidence a bit since my belly area is out of control lol. I hate to admit it but I'm a little scared to audition anywhere since all the girls I see working are small with huge ass's smh. I have been all over these girls Instagram pgs to see what I'm up against. But I'm definitely going to get back in the game because bills are stalking me at the moment and I want my days free to be with my kids. Sorry for the long post this thread just really hit the nail on the head for me.

    30's is a good age and that's what most older, moneyed guys want from what I've seen (but I only worked at 3 clubs). To a 50+ year old, a woman in her 30's looks like she's in her 20's, and teens and 20's look like they're little kids unless he's the dirty old man type (nothing wrong with that if he spends, there's a lot of dirty old men in the clubs too).

    I think older women also know how to talk to men better (especially older men) and they snatch regulars better because of that, while younger girls IMO rely more on appearance and pole performance. There's good hustlers in their 20's too, but they don't have the experience and aggressiveness of the older women. I also noticed that a woman in her 30's with kids and job experiences (such as working in a medical field) relate to the older men better who also have their own kids and work in other fields, stuff like that. Guys like a woman they can relate to, plus the dancer is hot on top of all that.

    I am in my 20's now but I honestly look forward to being a dancer into her 40's with years of experience and savvy under my belt, and a nice body to go along with it. Being "hot older woman" and MILF is more impressive than just being hot because you're young IMO, and even though I enjoy my youth and how easy it is to stay fit while I am young, I don't plan on swimming against the current of time. I'll just have another set of stuff to enjoy in my next stage in life.
