#dancer advice

You HAVE to put in the work or it isn't going to happen.

This means, yes, you're going to need to actually work constantly for a solid year to reach your goals. Probably longer than that, honestly. You are going to be tired and it isn't as easy as anyone makes it out to be.

This woman did nothing but fucking complain. Oh but my knee hurts, oh but I kind of fell when trying that trick etc etc. I knew then that she didn’t have what it takes to make money in a club.

She told me she’d go travel an hour away to a club to get into more money and I said “don’t do that you’ll hurt your own feelings.”

She asked what I meant and I stated plainly “they’re going to look you up and down and say you’re too fat sorry. You don’t have the makeup skills, hair skills, pole or floorwork nor the high class experience they need, im sorry.”

This cocky girl tried anyways and sobbed for an hour on her way home because they did exactly what I said they would do.

Do not go into dancing thinking you can walk around with undone brows, no makeup, stinky breath, horrific posture, and frizzy hair and make money. You will fail.

Long story short, 17 year old me stumbled upon the world of SW and outright decided I wanted to try stripping one day. At 20 I decided to say fuck it and go for it, moved halfway across the U.S. and went to an audition.

I don’t recommend it to anyone, but I also don’t say that they shouldn’t. I love dancing but the industry is fucking BRUTAL. I’ve watched good girls become felons from drug charges and a plethora of other things. It really depends on if you WANT to dance and if you have the skill set. There’s a massive skill set needed to dance, if you don’t have it or learn how to build it you won’t make anything.

Absolutely, In no particular order, if you have these you might want to reconsider:

(People with/who:)

Jealousy issues

Little to no self esteem

Money management problems

Past drug addiction issues

Past alcoholism

Addictive tendencies

Fear of rejection

Little to no stamina

Low pain tolerance

No rhythm

No variety in music taste

No social skills

Little concept of being seductive

No makeup skills

No hair skills

Can’t handle being touched

Don’t like being judged

Have bad hygiene skills

This is a small list of things you may want to consider going in. You have 100% certainty to be judged for your body, skin, teeth, hair, voice etc. You WILL need money management skills (send an ask if you want a list of mistakes and advice). And you absolutely cannot avoid being rejected, laughed at, touched in some cases, bruises, scraped, and in pain.
