    Default Mother thinking about Dancing

    I'm 27 years old, I'm still in great shape even though I have two kids. But unfortuantly I have two kids with two men that don't do much if anything at all. I'm thinking about trying to dance but I don't have any money to start with in order to buy any outfits and where I'm working now at a regular job just isn't enough money. Nothing seems to be enough, especially since I don't have much of an education. I have to live in my parents house because I lost my home and I'm about to loose it and I can't see any other path. I wanted some advise from people that have either been there or are there right now. Is this a good decision or am I going to be even more bitter then I am now. Trust me these two men messed me up, so I really don't see men. That's why I thought right now would be a good time to start since trust me I don't want to fall for one. LOL. Any ideas or anything to get started. I'm in SW Florida and there is a club called Emerald City. It appears to be the only club around here, so I might be able to make some money. I'm going to check it out later.

    I started dancing in a $10 bikini and a pair of $14 shoes. It can be done without a lot of money. Though I wouldn't look at it as your only way out. Rather, a way to help you out. I've seen it be very good for girls, or very bad, depending on how they treat it. It's a job where you have the potential to make a nice living. Best of luck!!!

    Thanks so much for the information. I just wanted to hear from someone that it's not that bad. I was looking around the net and heard alot of bad things being said. I know that it's a profession that you must be strong but I don't want to be drained either. At least not for my kids.

    You'll hear alot of bad things being said from people who don't dance and don't know anything about it. That said, you'll hear plenty of bad things about it from us too, but different things. heh

    It can be very rewarding and fun, the money can be great, and it can help you acheive alot of things you may not otherwise do. But it's a tough business, full of potential pitfalls and people trying to take advantage of you. You have to be strong and stay strong to avoid disaster. Provided you keep your head on straight it can be very positive!

    It will give you what you put into it. Keep a positive attitude. I've found dancing can be my best friend or my worst enemy. It's all in how you look at it. We all have 'horror' stories. But there are utopian nights too. What's weird about dancing is how normal it is. If you're a single mom with two kids, you're already strong. I think you'll do great. =)

    Hi I also think you can use danceing to better your situation but i have some thing i want you to be mindful of. Try to keep a low key in the dressing room don't do anything that would make the other girls think badly of you that will make your life in the club hell. Don't share personnel info about having kids or anything with co workers or custmers at first. My post important thing i want you to do is keep a low profile out side the club. You might want to keep dancing a secret from you family and close friends so they don't say anything about you as a mother. There is nothing wrong with a mother danceing plenty of us do it but those in the none stripper world don't understand it and don't expect it. Take it from someone who has been there please be careful. Have fun you will enjoy you time out.

    Also you said you have had problems with men i am sure you know this already but try not to talke to your custmers about your men problems. Don't be offend by me saying this just be mindful of it on the floor you will be suprised how easy it is to slip into this type of conversation. I hope this helps have a great time.

    Part of the reason people use this forum is to let off steam and vent frustration about work. That does not necessarliy mean that we all hate our jobs. Dont panick if you see alot of negativity in some of the threads, its more often than not just people getting stuff off their chest. I love my job, have been in the business for 3yrs and it has given me so many oppertunitys. I definatly think you should give it a try.

    Be aware though that this job is not for everyone. Dont be dissapointed if its not how you expected it. Just go in with an open mind, relax and keep smiling,

    Thank you everyone for answering my questions. I went into the club last night and the crowd seems cool. I'm going to go to amateur night on Monday and see how I do. It's worth the try. I planned on keeping my stuff to my self. You gain those problems everywhere. I've learned my lesson just through life experiences in general. People use your kindness for weakness alot. So I try and keep to myself when it comes to alot of people in my outside life. You guys have really helped when it comes to my decision. Thanks alot.
