Lap dancing - Satisfy your curiosity with some interesting facts
Welcome to the world of exotic dancing! This is the place to find out all about this sexy bumping and grindig dance...
Different kinds of exotic lap dancing
The traditional bomping and grinding dance has several variations, all based on the same sensual idea but each with a spicy twist of its own. The first and most similar is the couch dance.
The added value of the couch dance
Couch dancing is actually lap dancing in which the receiving party is seated on a couch (not a chair). The couch provides a platform on which to climb and to position your body above your partner's face in a seductive straddling manner. You can also take advantage of the couch's big soft arms to rub against in sexy movements that will drive your partner wild.
Another variation – the table dancing
This exotic dance is performed near the customer's table, as opposed to on his lap or on the stage. It's more common i n areas where contact between the dancer and customer is forbidden. When the customer is seated near the bar the dance will be called bar dancing.
Last but not least - the pole dancing
The pole dance is the most distant relative of lap dance. Naturally, it's also an erotic dance, but one that involves sensual use of a vertical pole. The pole dancer may hold the pole and work around it or use it to perform more athletic moves like climbing and spinning. This will depend on athletic ability and coordination. Pole dancing is most commonly combined with striptease or lap dancing. Take a look at these sexy girls in action
How a genius idea came to life
Ever wonder from where this exotic dance originated? Whose innovative mind though up this seductive bumping and grinding dance? It was actually not so far back when strippers danced on stages of night clubs for a monthly or daily wage. Then for the first time in the 70s, a New York club introduced the concept of audience participation as part of the sripping dance. It didn't take long for others to follow.
A win win situation
Shortly after this, in 1980, a San Francisco club came up with a great gimic. In return for $1 a naked dancer would sit on your lap. This idea worked for all parties involved: more satisfied customers visited the clubs, dancers made more tips and club owners paid the dancers a lower salary.
From sitting down to shaking ass
Eventually, the more passive 'sitting down on the customer's lap ' evolved into sexy, stimulating dancing against the customer's body, specifically his groin. What accelerated this process was the constant testing of the law's boundaries by the clubs and the dancers - to see just how far they could go and still stay on the right side of the law.
After all this shape shifting, is lap dancing legit?
The base to its legitimacy can be found in a 1994 Canadian court ruling. The ruling determined that this form of dancing did not clash with any public decency laws, it also defined what this exotic dance was. In the years that followed, a number of conflicting judgements were passed. Then in 1999, the Canadian Supreme Court ruled that exotic lap dancing was legal.
This meant the beginning of the lap dancing club era
Strip clubs and table dancing clubs advanced to more s oph isticated lap dancing clubs in no time. And this was not the only change. Soon after this, club owners stopped paying their dancer's wages and all the money they made was based on the tips they got lap dancing.
But it didn't end with this
Today there are two common ways of earning money in this business. The first is to earn your money from tips from which you pay the club a percentage. The other is to earn your money from tips and pay the club a fixed price for letting you work. This fee may range from $45 to $350.
