    Default learning the trade

    I've had a fascination with exotic dancing since I was a little girl. I'm an exhibitionist and I love to dance. A new club just opened up with the same owners as the place I bartend at. Got a job offer after New Years when a stripper friend of mine, from another club, pulled me on stage to dance with her. It's alot of fun and I'm seriously considering taking the job. Thing is I have no clue what to do or where to start. Yeah I can go up on stage and shake my ass, but how do I make it sexy? I have a friend of mine who works there who's teaching me some stuff, but what I need most is in the little things. How to get over feeling silly since I'm not sure what I'm doing? How to smooth out my movements and make them more fluid, how do I tease the crowd while dancing? How to take money from a custy and give a good enough impression that they are back from more? How to dance to anything. We don't have a dj, just a compuerized playlist. The club has minimal toucing allowed, as in we can touch to tease, but they can't touch back. Stuff like stradling them and slowly draging our body over theirs, people lie on the stage over tip rail a lot to give us tips. Which started cause there is this thing guys here have with the girls hitting their chest with belts, the girls straddling his face usualy to this. Gets good tips though and makes a good prelude to seeing if the guy want a dance.

    Luckily my boyfriend is very supportive and has had nothing but encouragement for me since I expressed my intrest to dance. He's been a regular at various strip clubs state side. Military moves ya around alot. So what advice can you offer for a girl trying to break into the business? AKA how do I learn to dance, look sexy and feel sexy doing it while having limited learing oportunities due to location? I'm overseas in Okinawa, an island 400 miles south of mainland Japan.

    The way you learn to dance is go and watch the girls then go up and try it. No dancer starts out knowing what shes doing.

    That's an UNDERSTATEMENT.I just started for real this time, and while I'm getting tipped onstage well, I still feel silly. Especially my first stage shows of the night.

    It takes a while to be able to do it without feeling like you look ridiculous. Hell, I've been dancing for over a year and I still think I look stupid sometimes. You just have to be confident and have fun. Goof around with the guys. That makes it a lot easier- if you don't take yourself too seriously and joke around with the customers.

    I still feel silly. It's rare that I ever actually feel sexy & seductive (though I do like when that happens). But guys like to see that I'm having fun.
