I'm new to dancing and have just moved to an upscale club (thanks to advice from people here). . . Besides the usual body-image issues, intimidation in the face of lots of beautiful women, etc, I'm having a hard time figuring out how to _act_ like a stripper. I grew up doing modern dance and ballet, but nothing in my background has really prepared me for this part of the job-- I'm used to being my blunt, smart alecky self, and was never much good at flirting. Can anyone give me some ideas to work with? I want some sense of how to "be myself" but also get dances. . .

I'm not a fan of dancers who appear to be making an effort to act "like strippers." I want to feel like I'm talking to a real, friendly human being--who just happens to be beautiful and naked and perhaps on my lap. Snappy comebacks are great as long as they are friendly and fun. My favorite clubs are those in which the dancers are friendly and genuine.

... I'm not sure whether I was just agreed with or totally slammed... Either way, I find that Katrine usually knows of what she speaks....
