Lap Dance!

with Peekaboo Pointe &
Jo Weldon

About This ClassAbout Your Teachers

Just in time for Valentine's Day, it's our annual lapdance extravaganza! Class is for women and nonbinary only!

Come learn secrets of flirting, seduction, and enticement! A lap dance is a sexy form of clothed (or not) contact dancing in which the recipient remains seated (well, for as long as they can take it!) while the dancer teases, titillates, and tests the limits of sensuality.

You'll get tips on what to wear, how to create an atmosphere, how to choose music, and how to do the moves that devastate! Students will perform lap dances for each other in a playful and supportive environment.
Bring a bottle of water if you like.

About this Class

Learn how to set a mood, choose music, and devastate with sensual and wild moves!

Prepare to have your boundaries charmingly explored in this full-contact class! You'll learn how every sense can be engaged in a dance that makes the recipient want nothing more than...another lap dance!

No nudity, though plenty of striptease tips will be included.

A lap dance can be foreplay, or it can be a pleasure unto itself. We're going to show you how to engage eye contact, breath, scent, proximity, and touch to make it seem as if that chair is the center of the sexy universe. You'll take yourself and your partner into another world!

Oriented to women and femmes. We are preparing a class for couples, so stay tuned for that option!

Wear something comfortable, like leggings, yoga pants, or shorts and t-shirt.

This class is designed to prepare you to give lapdances to friends and lovers with powerful playfulness and irresistable physical flirtation!
