    Default Charge for a dance?

    I really tried searching for this, but didn't turn up anything. I'm interested in dancing once I move south for college, so I've just been reading a little about it. I was just wondering how much you charge for a dance? Is it a rate the dancer sets, or is it regulated by the club?

    Also, working hours. Do you basically come and go as you please as long as you pay the house or do you work on a schedule?

    Thanks in advance

    The club will either have set prices for dances or a guideline for what you charge. Don't undercut set prices or other dancers will eat you up. In some clubs it's fine to charge more, in others not. This is an example of something that's different from club to club and they'll gladly explain their policies to you when you start there.

    Everything that Susan Said. They manager will tell you how much to charge for a dance. Some places charg 20, some 30, every place is different.

    Work hours are different from club to club also. At my club I set my own schedule and tell them about a week in advance what days I want to work the next week, but I have to work the whole time (5pm-close) unless I make arrangements when I'm making my schedule (like if I have to leave early a certain night because I have a paper due the next day that I have to finish). Every club does the scheduling different, so the manager at your club will let you know how that works too.

    Good luck!!
    Take the road less traveled- just make sure you have a map.
