It was a slow learning curve for me. And you're right, the regulars were the majority of income in the later years.

From what I gathered as a customer and just talking to the dancers, the job takes a large amount of finesse as far as social skills go, plus athleticism, empathy. and self discipline if they want to be successful long term.

Too bad I can’t be a dancer now that I know what makes one successful. No one will pay to watch a pale 50 year old man flail around on stage. Doesn’t matter how good my social skills may be.
