Yeah.....right..you need advice for nerves.....!!

lmao

toxiczone ..feck off no one asked for your self righteous opinions... go back to your Mary Whitehouse magazines and knitting!!...i thumbed you down btw

:)x

You will be fine my lovely - I KNOW!!!

Deep breath and away you go - I have full confidence in you. That is all you need to know

have a stiff drink before hand and imagine everyone naked.

My sister does it and she said the first time she got on stage she didnt look at the croud but the back of the club at a very nice picture!
She told me she just took her time and concentrated on what she was doing.
And had a few to drink before hand!
Lucky you...
I would do it if I wasn't so fat! lol

can you tell me which club i will go along for moral support as long as you wear those boots

Once you get out there then auto-pilot will kick in and you'll be concentrating so hard on remembering your moves that everything else will just go away.Break a leg and I hope things go well

You have nothing to worry about, you will be fantastic, everyone in the club will love you, or will be too pissed to notice.
Have a great night

heeey hun...

wanna come over to practise before hand??

when on stage DO NOT look at anyone or their eyes... look at the back of the room or floor just above their heads.. or at the stage floor...

take deep breaths... drink lots of water.. go toilet before...

shake that booty ;) ill be in the front row cheering you on.. and trust me.. no one will say anything but "encore" =P

good luck hun *hugs* =D

Relax you'll be fine! Woody Allen said that "Life is 90 percent showing up!" and once you get there you'll be ace!
I taught martial arts for a time and used to worry like crazy all week about standing in front of people, how it would go etc etc and - guess what - it always went fine. Once you're there you brain just gets on with it. I guess you'd not be doing it if you couldn't do it! And come on - you're not gonna fall off, you're not gonna get paralysing fright!
Penn and Teller (American magicians) talk alot about their mantra of NPD. It means No Permanent Damage! Even if you muck up a few steps, don't look as hot as you can - so what? It's only a dance - you're not gonna die!
And ignore the Answers idiots! (Although if I knew where you were I'd come watch!)
Good luck. (Dance like no one's watching ....)

dont look anyone in the eyes when you first get out there, just listen to the music and let it take over. you will be fine. we all get nervous before we go on stage, what ever the type of performance. have fun out there and dont let any stupid comments get to you. and dont worry about making a mistake or falling over, if anything does go wrong just turn it into a move, trust me the guys wont notice mistakes anyway.

Youll be fine, its in your blood. Just take a deep breath and go out and knock em dead. Id wish ya luck, but you dont need it. Congradulations on your return!!! Wish I were there! Deep breath and just do it. Thats how I cope, after all, most fears are just in the mind.

breathe deeply, pray, pretend your somewhere else, get a close friend to sit in the audience close to the stage so you have someone to make eye contact with....remember that you've done this before and if your coming back after 3 months, you must be pretty darn good. and don't listen to jerks on Y!A, you do what you need to do....

heck, i wish i could do it!

How did it go? My advice would have been to realize that the people who come for the entrainment are really appreciative of the dancers. I never knew anybody that went to a club with the idea of critiquing the dancers or being unkind.

Sad lonely, forever-'hoping' males, 'peeling out' tens and twenties, whilst "Pole Danc"ers expose the 'holiest of the holy' to the 'dross' of the Shire. You are right to be "bricking it."
