SF: Stripping 201 (by Click Your Heels)

We all take our clothes off at some point! In this class, you will learn to be more present, take control, and make the most of the moment, in both everyday situations (like taking off your jacket on a first date or removing your shoes at someone's house) and for video dates, spicy parties, and X-rated times!

Practice makes perfect! If you want to feel more confident and less self-conscious when taking off your clothes, come learn all the tips and tricks to avoid looking awkward. Look calm, cool, and sexy in any disrobing scenario!

Whether you plan to embrace the spotlight of the moment and capture all eyes and attention while you strip, or you just want to make sure you don't fall down or look silly, spend a couple of hours with an expert to up your game.

WARNING ⚠️

Nudity is not allowed in this class!!! Wear a PG-13 base layer over your lower half private areas that you will NOT be removing—swimwear is ideal!

Nipples and chests of all genders are welcome to be bare in this class, or you may keep them covered to suit your personal preference. Please plan accordingly.

BRING:

• Be sure to wear and bring lots of layers! Think about the real-life kinds of situations in which you anticipate using your stripping skills. What would you typically be wearing in those moments? Bring those clothes with you!
• Whatever real items you want to practice stripping out of, that's what you should bring—anything you want to learn how to strip out of with grace and ease.

Suggestions to get your mind thinking:

• Hoodies, jackets, and outerwear
• Anything that buttons, zips, buckles, laces, hooks, or ties
• Skirts, dresses, short or long
• Pants/shorts
• Bodysuits, rompers, and one-pieces
• Tight-fitted clothing
• Extra fluffy or layered voluminous clothing
• Very heavy or stiff clothing
• Shirts, sweaters, and tops that go overhead
• People who typically wear glasses should practice with them
• People with long hair should wear their hair as you most commonly will on real-life stripping occasions

If that would be a barrier to attendance, you may use the $20 option. If you're able to be generous, paying at the $40 option allows us to make tickets accessible to those who need the discount.
