Guide and advice to the best Strip Clubs in Scotland.
Strip Clubs in Scotland are like other countries in the UK influenced by the American table dance clubs. There is not so much focus on the stage shows and the dancers work on a tip based system.
The dancers make there money from selling table dances and private shows. There is no commission from selling champagne, the clubs normally also has a large number of strippers working on each shift. In Scotland you will find the majority of Gentleman clubs in Aberdeen, Glasgow and Edinburg. There is also some clubs in Dundee. A lot of the dancers also travel to work in England and Ireland since the club concepts there are very equal. In gentlemen Clubs in Scotland you will find dancers from all over Europe. Since Scotland has been a popular destination to work in for the traveling dancer. Any dancer who wants to work here has to arrange there own accommodation.
Strip clubs in Scotland run in tandem with the rest of the UK and are unique in terms of style and work conditions. Compared to gentlemen's clubs worldwide. Dancers carry out little on the main floor and instead, focus on lap dances, or private shows. Some clubs will have a rotation of dancers on stage, but this is normally with very little of the showmanship compared to other countries. Drinks for girls cost the same as if they would for customers as there is no drinks or champagne commission offered to the dancers. All the money is spent and made in the private rooms.
The UK clubs have a larger pool of girls compared to other countries and normally have higher numbers on any night. This is in contrast to European clubs. The American style influences the clubs with commission structure and in terms of larger, busier venues. The main difference is there being a lack of focus on stage shows and stage tips. Licensing laws do not allow for any touching or extras within the clubs.
Club system in Scotland.
Strip clubs in Scotland run on the
lap dance system. There is often no drinks commission and never a fixed salary. The dancer pays the club either a ‘house-fee’ or a small percentage of dances sold. The rest is hers to keep. Dancing work in Scotland is fast paced and sometimes a little more aggressive than champagne clubs. The faster pace works very well for a lot of girls. Some find it easier to get many small dances to mount up rather than trying to extract large amounts in one go. Alcohol consumption is also not obligatory. Dances start at £20 for a fully nude, single song.
Some strip clubs in Scotland have a rotation of girls dancing on stage. The number of stage shows vary from club to club, with some offering a continuous rotation and some offering none at all apart from stag shows. Pole shows normally take the form of a one or two song stage stage either fully clothed or topless. Very few will offer full nude out on the club floor. Feature shows are very rare. Girls working in strip clubs in Scotland make their money purely from private shows so it is very much focused on this. Management place less pressure placed on girls to hit targets. However, there is a lot of competition from other girls. The work system encourages dancers to be very self-motivated and ensure that they maintain focus as any time spent on the floor is for free, or paid for .
