1. I want to learn how to move in a super sexy way, like an exotic dancer, which class do I take?
You
can start in a public class with other students or you can start with
private lessons. If you want to take a public class, sign up for
StripXpertease Basic Moves to begin to learn how to move and groove
just like the pros. This is a great class if you are unsure and want to
see how and what we teach. If you are going with private lessons (just
you and your instructor), you can take a single lesson or a package of
3 or 6 lessons. If you have a time or budget crunch, you can try the in-studio
Mini class. Again, if you are unsure, sign up for Striptease Basic Moves
first to see what we are all about.
2. If I want to book a private striptease lesson for myself or a group of friends, what do you need from me?
You
will need to pick 3 dates and times that work best for you. We will of
course try to choose your first option. We can start your class between
noon and 9 pm any day of the week. You can hold the class in our studio
or in your own home. Once we agree on a date, you will need make a deposit
to hold your date. Dates CANNOT be held without deposit.

In
NYC, we use 2 studios , both on 8th Ave. btwn 35th and 37th streets. See
our Contact Us/Locations page for specifics. And remember, you can always
take a class in home. See question # 9 for areas served. We can also do
it in a hotel room, an office space, or a private bar lounge, but we will
not do it in a boat, we will not do it on a train, and we do not like
green eggs and ham.

4. I am too nervous to take class with other students and I don't want anyone watching. Do you have a class for me?
Shy
huh? No worries, we know this stuff is hard to do in front of other people.
You can sign up for a private lesson with just you and your instructor.
Your instructor will watch you but no one else... because it would be
weird if even she didn't watch you.

5. Do you teach classes for bachelorette or birthday parties?
YES! That's our specialty. Parties generally take our Striptease Basic Moves class. It is a lot of fun for the whole group. Everyone moves and is interactive throughout the whole class. Also every girl gets a cheat sheet that covers all of the moves you learn ( because the brain tends to get fuzzy after that 3rd tequila shot). And our Striptease Basic Moves class is danced-based, not fitness-based, so you won't get all sweaty after class. You will be laughing and dancing long after your party is over. Also, after the class, you can practice all our moves with nothing more than a chair and a smile. No equipment needed. Bonus!

6. I do NOT want to be a
stripper, are these classes right for me?
Don't
worry, we teach everyday women. We actually do NOT encourage women to
enter the industry.

7. Do I need any dance experience?
No!
But you do need to be able to tell your right from
your left. Or we can just write a big R and L on your hands. Whatever.

Miss
Jay From ANTM. No, but that would be awesome. Actually
your instructor is going to be a well trained employee of StripXpertease
whose main focus is to make sure you have fun and don't fall down.

9. How far are you willing to travel for in home classes in New York and New Jersey?
For
you, we would travel to the ends of the Earth! But with the price of gas
and airfare, well, we gotta stay close to home. Our NYC instructors teach
in NYC, the surrounding boroughs, and other parts of New York, Long Island,
and New Jersey. As long as you are accessible by train and and no more
than 2 hours away ( by train) we can come to you. Travel fees for travel
outside of Manhattan are approx. $20 per hour of travel by train RT. There
are extra fees to cover costs of LIRR, NJ Transit, and Metro-North trains.

Can you teach me and my boyfriend/husband/fiancé together
Naughty...
Of course. We have a couple's class, called Lover's Moves. We do it in-studio
only, one couple per class, and there is NO NUDITY! You are both gonna
get all hot and bothered. We suggest getting a hotel room close to the
studio. Trust us. Female couples welcome too.

11. I am under 18, can I take your course?
Yes,
as soon as you turn 18. We
don't allow anyone underage to attend, even with parent's permission.
Our classes revolve around sex and sexuality, so it's just a bit much
for the kiddies.

12. Do you have a mailing list?
Yes.
You can join here Subscribe
to the StripXpertease mailing list. But we promise we won't
ever sell your email or display it. Unless someone offers us like a million
dollars, and in that case we would totally split it with you.

13.
No pole classes? I wanna learn how to pole dance!
As
of now, we don't teach any type of pole dance classes, as it takes many
lessons and tons of hard work and strength.
Even the simplest spins are difficult and take time to practice. Moves
are hard on the joints in your hands and leave your body quite bruised
until you master it. Also, most girls don't have
poles in their homes!
Most studios that teach "fitness" pole classes put 3 girls on
one pole, and you spend most of the class waiting your turn. Our classes
are danced based, mimicking the real moves strippers use in the clubs.
In our classes, we teach multiple moves that you can perform for your
lover with just a chair and a smile.:) Pole work is only a small part
of what an exotic dancer does. There is a large percentage of strip clubs
that don't even have poles!
Our classes keep everyone moving the whole time with lap dance, stripping,
and standing moves. And the best part is, all of our moves can be duplicated
at home with no equipment needed.
14. Do I need to be in good physical shape?
No.
But taking our work out class, Stripper Strength, will help develop muscles
and flexibility that make the moves much easier.

15. I'm interested in more of a workout type class. Do you have something for me?
You're gonna be sorry you asked. Try Stripper Strength. We take real stripper moves and just slow them down. You will love us for it, but you probably won't be able to walk the next day. It's a serious leg, abs, and butt work out. And you have to wear heels (any heel will do , but advanced students wear stripper shoes). You can't wear stripper heels on the treadmill. 'Nuff said.
Most
women wear typical work out wear. Basically, whatever you are comfortable
in. But you also want to keep it sexy and you want to be able to see your
body move. So not those sweats with the bleach stain. Try to avoid skirts.
And heels are preferred. Six inch platform open toe shoes with ankle support
are best. But don't let the fact that you don't have the shoes keep you
from coming to class. Just show up. Heck, you can even come in a rabbit
suit if it makes you feel better, but we're probably gonna laugh at you.

That depends on the class, but you can find times listed next to the class description. Times range from 50 minutes to 2 hours.
18. Do I have to take off my clothes?
No.
We use pantomime to show you how to strip. If you want to wear a bra,
garter, etc. over your clothes you may do so at the appropriate time in
the lesson. However, if you want to strip or wear nothing but your sexy
lingerie, you may do so in a private one on one class. And we highly recommend
practicing in as little clothing as possible when you are home.
19. How much room will I need in my house and what do I need if I choose an in-home party/lesson?
Really
not that much, as long as each girl can stand up and move hers arms around
without smacking the girl next to her, it should be okay. And hard wood
flooring or similar surfaces are best, but low pile carpets are OK too.
We will not teach outside. You need a CD/DVD player that plays burned
CDs. You will also need a chair for each lady and your instructor (regular
dining room type or arm chairs will be fine). Any room that has a large
mirror is an added plus. Also have a regular strapped, back closure bra
to wear over your clothes, and wear your sexiest and COMFORTABLE heels
as well.

20. Do I need those crazy stripper heels?
No,
but they do help and are recommended, ESPECIALLY for advanced classes.
These moves will work best with platform high heels. If you can't buy
the shoes, wear what ever you have that is comfortable. There are links
on this site to purchase stripper shoes if you would like. 5 1/2 to 6
inch platform open toe shoes with ankle support are best. And for real,
they make your ass look fan-freaking-tastic.
