    Default Dance topless in a nude bar?

    Ok...this may seem like an odd, maybe even a dumb question, but here goes....

    Does anyone think that a girl would have a chance (with management) at dancing TOPLESS with a nude colored t back at an all nude club?

    I know to look for an establishment that is up to my standards, I just don't want to show my "cookie" while dancing. I just have that insecurity. Also, my fiance isn't really keen on me showing it either. I LOVE to dance...but haven't been able to do so since I moved to Atlanta .

    PLEASE HELP!!

    I looked at some of the clubs that I was told (from this site) that were topless only, but 2 were in VERY bad parts of town, and the others were either shut down or had moved. I MISS DANCING!! Plus, I have nothing to do with my really cute outfits now!

    Thanks for listening to my whining!

    no. nude means nude. even if for some odd reason management would give you permission to wear a flesh colored thong, the other girls would flip that they weren't allowed to also... i can't see management not realizing this and can't see them giving you permission to not be nude. would you think management at a topless club would give permission for a dancer to wear a flesh colored bra because she was uncomfortable showing her breasts?.... think about it. customers can tell if you're really naked or not. besides, if the club also has their dancers do private/lap/table dances nude and not just stages dances, there's no possible way a flesh colored thong would go unnoticed no matter how bad the lighting is.

    if one of the nude clubs you're interested in only requires you to be nude on stage, you could rethink the idea of being nude. you don't have to spread your legs or stick your crotch in peoples' faces while you're nude on stage, although if that's what the norm is at the club, you will probably suffer in tips somewhat... maybe a lot. sometimes, losing that little scrap of material between your legs is something a person can get accustomed too, and sometimes not. if you can't stand the thought of doing nude dancing even if it's just on stage, go to www.stripclublist.com and find a topless club you can work in. if you have to travel a bit outside your immediate area, so be it. it's common for dancers to drive up to one or two hours every day to work, and i'm sure you can find a topless club you can work in even if it means you have to do a bit of driving.

    I don't know about the other clubs in town, but I know that when I worked at Follie's (on Buford Highway), you were required to go nude on stage after you received 10 dollars in tips. HOWEVER, at the time, table dances were topless, and you did not necessarily have to participate in VIP rooms or shower dances (I know I never did either of those).

    BUT, when you were on stage, you had to have enough pubic hair (and dark enough) to... shall we say... cover your "cleft", and you could not bend over at more than a fourty-five degree angle or spread your legs. Basically, you had to dance standing up and with your legs essentially together. Even doing any spins on the pole would earn you a hairy eyeball, if you were nude. Plus you were on a stage about 4 feet off the ground, so generally your knees would be about eye level for most guys.

    I can't say that is indicative of the rest of the clubs in Atlanta, or if Follie's is even still that way. The best thing you can do is stop in as a customer and take a look. I know when I moved there I was very reticent to work nude, as I had always worked topless or nude-optional clubs (where you can opt to go nude in certain instances, but are not required to do so). However, after about a week of adjusting, I was quite comfortable working at Follie's. Other clubs may also be the same way, so check some of those out as a customer also.

    You may also wish to consider a possible job change, if it is still too much to handle. Dominatrixes and submissives can make good money in Atlanta at the various dungeons. If you wish to find out more about this, pick up the local adult entertainment rag, or an issue of Creative Loafing (although it is more mainstream) at any local head shop, porn shop, or strip joint.

    Also, if you do not mind the commute, you could always work in Alabama. Most of the clubs in Alabama are topless, especially Birmingham, which is roughly a 3 hour drive. Your best option there would be Sammy's. Other options would the Playlate Club, Lynn's Den (which has been there FOREVER), or Charlie's Go-Go. Charlie's has the worst location of those. Stay far far far away from Wesley's Booby Trap..... it's not called the "Rat Trap" / "Clap Trap" without reason...

    You shouldn't have to go quite that far, though, if you commute to AL - there should be places within the state line, which I believe is maybe an hour from Atlanta, if I remember right. It's an easy commute if you have good tunes for the ride - I used to do it several times a week.

    Hope you find something!

    Most likely you won't be able to do this for more than one set/song, one time in the shift. When you're looking for a place to work, please consider letting how you work, rather than what you wear, determine where you work. Plenty of dancers go thru the same jitters the first time totally nude and for a while after. I don't really know what it is, but it hit me, too. All I can say is, it gets easier with repetition.

    With there being no alternative (for the most part) to dancing nude in clubs here in Canada, I have seen full sets where at the end of the final song, bottoms still remained.

    Of course, I knew not of the circumstances, nor the dancer's relation to the club, but it has happened on many occasions.

    However, the tips were less, and some customers complained.
    Most of the time said dancer put on an excellent stage show otherwise, and it was hardly noticed that she wasn't in the buff in the end.

    More often than not, men go to a nude club to see nude dancers, not merely topless. Anything less than that and you'll lose plenty of customer attention.

    Make your decisions on what you're comfortable with. If you're not comfortable, you're not operating at 100%.

    Good luck!

    I don't know of any non-nude clubs here (Portland), but I've known dancers to deal with nudity in many different ways. Some get naked as soon as possible in the set, regardless of customers or tips. Most just follow the unspoken rule of first song, topless, second song nude. I know many who will get topless but won't get nude onstage for less than a certain amount of money - I generally won't do it for just one guy tipping, but will for a total of five bucks or more on the rack. There are a few girls who won't go nude onstage at all, but will for table dances. This is generally tollerated by the clubs, but I did work in one club (for one night) which required you to be nude on the second song, even if there wasn't a single dollar on your rack.

    But, every girl I've worked with DOES get naked at some point. I think that's part of the deal with working in a nude club - you get nude. Since you have the option of different types of clubs, I'd say stick with what you're comfortable with. Or at least try going nude if you decide to do one of those clubs - it's really not all that bad.

    It's just like me at a topless club if it's dead I just dance with my outfit on. Some pay cover charge but wont tip the girls and buy drink. They come for the free show and to watch what ever game that's on. Guess they dont have cable at home.

    Nude is nude. You might as well t work at a place if you aren't going with the flow. Usually you do only one song pe set nude anyway.

    Everyone has seen a naked woman. The more you drop your bottoms the more you think nothing of it. And in nde juice bars being able to focus on you spreading your legs while on stage leads to most of your tips and my well be the stimulating factor that gets guys to buy dances from you.

    The key here is being TOTALLY comfortable with what you do for living bein a dancer and having a relationship with a man who understands that dancing is a business. He must be taught to understand this businesss well as what moivates customers to tip and buy dances because as a cmmitted couple your monetary success as a dancer is his success too.Club managers understand that nudity is just business when their girls go nude.

    Just do it, and educate your guy so he knows that a customer is just that, and that he is the only one having sexwith you.

    "Hmm how about lap dances? Is it still nude or do you get to ware a thong?"

    The nude clubs where I have danced, the laps were with a thong if there was any contact at all. A strictly air dance could be done nude. (Guys did pay for that sometimes.)

    Depends on the club, the state, and the local laws, especially liquor laws. I've seen an alcohol nude club where lap dancers kept bottoms on; juice nude club where lap dancers were nude; juice nude club where lap dancers had to have tops and bottoms.

    Most likely the girls would have a thong or g string on. If the club owner cares about their club, an extras are not part of the club atmosphere

    I work in Portland, and it's pretty standard to do a lap dance nude, and to get naked on stage during the last song of a set. Since Oregon is such a strictly no-contact state, I think dancers do what they can to give the customers an eyeful and make it all about the fantasy. I had a hard time taking my bottoms off onstage at first too, and nobody at the club said anything about it, I just didn't make much money. I got over it, I get naked now, and my tips are much better. Give yourself some time, take it slow, and try things like taking off your thong but leave a miniskirt on, so you can give the guys who are tipping well that "special" view. Hope that helps.

    At my last club it was topless but there was this one dancer that never went on the main stage because she said she had a ''modeling'' contract that forbid her to remove her top(She later told me that she really did not have a modeling contract she just hated going on stage) so she only danced on the side stage.
    I know that she tipped out the D.J 50-100 dollars everytime she worked though which is probaly why she got away with it.

    With very very few exceptions, management of nude clubs everywhere are going to expect their dancers to work nude - nude on stage and nude during private dances. Even if management was willing to tolerate a dancer in their nude club working with bottoms on, customers are going to expect nude entertainment from every dancer and will get upset if they don't receive it. Other dancers are not going to mind a girl refusing to work bottomless because within a matter of days word of this will get out among club customers resulting in more business for the other dancers as customers start to shun the girl who won't work nude.

    If you really have a problem working nude, you're FAR better off seeking out a club where local laws don't permit full nudity thus all dancers must work topless and customers only expect topless.

    Have to disagree. I have never danced in a nude club unril 6 months ago. Its nude on stage and we have a topless dance room and a nude champagne room. I dont go on stage. I was out up 3 times since I have worked there and did not take my bottoms off. I made 3 times as much as the girl before me. I also dont go nude every time I go into the nude champagne room and I am one of the top earners in the club. There are also several girls who dont take their bottoms off on stage who do just as well as everyone else. Because you become more alluring to the clientele if everyone is doing something and your not.One girl doent take her top off on stage. She gets more dances than ever that way she says because the guys will get dances to see why she doesnt. Their intriged by it. You do have to find a club were its nude optional though.Good luck.
