What skills should I have?
Dance/acrobatic skills would be advantageous, but if you are able to move and learn we can say with confidence that within a week or two you will with training be more than sufficient. Practise makes perfect and most new girls learn quickly as dancing will become second nature.
You should also have cunning social and interpersonal skills to interact with customers and entertain them – beauty isn’t everything. Sometimes a guy just wants a girl to talk to or give him some attention. Also, the more persuasive you are, the more dances you’ll sell.
Be confident, feel sexy and be classy. If you used to working with clients and talking them you will make an ideal dancer. Put your skills to work for you.
What are the working hours?
The club is open 6 days a week (Mon-Sat). It opens at 7pm and runs till late (between 2am-4am) depending on patronage. As there a number of dancers, they can relieve each other of dance duties, and have at least one night a week off or you may work 6 days a week.
What is expected of me?
There are 4 categories:
• Stage shows – a dancer is required to perform a dance/striptease show of 10-15min on the main stage – this is your main moment to show people what you’re capable of and just how damn sexy you are. If you are new to the industry our DJ and instructor will help you compile a show, so you will not be doing stage shows till you ready.
• Catwalks – a dancer is required to go onto the main stage for the duration off two to three songs. The routine need not be as strenuous as a stage show, but this is the perfect opportunity to briefly introduce yourself. This is not a show but more a sexy walk on stage so customers can see you.
• Intro – all the girls move as one big group out of the dressing room and position themselves all over the club and do one song intro. This is the perfect time to outshine your competitors.
• Private Dances – this includes lap dances, table dances, and conversations. This is where you start making money – the more you sell, the more you make. Impress a guy, and he might become a regular patron for the club.
More will be explained when we receive your application
What would a typical evening, at the club, be like as a dancer?"
As you arrive you will get ready, putting on make-up, doing your hair and selecting your hottest outfit. Thereafter you will mingle with the crowd, talking to them, keeping them company, try to convince them to buy a private dance.
Every hour one dancer will be scheduled to do a stage show and in-between catwalks will be required on a rotational basis and one or two intros. The harder you work, the more money you make. If you just sit around, look bored and get drunk, no-one will be interested and you won’t make it far in the industry.
What should I wear?
Anything sexy and alluring, from lingerie to sexy miniskirts and high heels. This is an elite gentlemen’s lounge, so patrons will expect to see sexy and classy girls. Just make sure you’re comfortable – the clothes must fit your body type and must be easy to take off. G-strings and bikinis also a must. So have a few outfits and if you are new, we do have a few outfits at the club for-sale.
How much clothing do I have to take off?
Well, it is a strip club, so basically everything. However, the way you do it is important – you need to allure your patrons and perform a clever strip tease…emphasis on tease. Don’t expose everything in one shot – there a clever and very sexy ways to move and cover up and still be seen as provocative and classy.
Is training available?
The club boasts with a professional resident choreographer and pole instructor that will help you out should you feel your routine needs a little bit more sass and glamour.
How much can I earn as a dancer?
Earnings all depend on how cunning and willing you are to sell dances to patrons. Are you friendly and can a customer approach you? Do you time yourself and move around from table to table? Do you talk to the customers and make them feel welcome. Do you help the club with marketing? Strippers can’t live off tips alone. The more professional and determined you are, the more you will sell. And you can earn anything from 5k-20k a week! We have had SA local girls whom made R30k a week just in selling dances and working very hard. But that is entirely up to you what you do with the tools we give you or if you going to sit in the corner and wait for something or if you going out there and make your money... We can only give you the tools…
