Are you ready to get Dark and Dirty?
ANNOUNCING! The Foreplay Competition
What is Foreplay?
We are looking for dancers who gravitate to erotic movement. Yes, it’s a competition, but nope, it’s not about who is best at the most amazing tricks. This is for the sensual movers that are in their body and can draw in an audience. Dark & Dirty is an ode to the strippers whose back the pole industry was built on and – frankly – has spent a lot of time exploiting. We are not charging for entry and this will be a highly tipped event if our Dark & Dirty Shows are any indication. This is to celebrate a community, come together and spotlight sensual movers.
Wo can compete (TLDR – for more info click on rules and regulations)?
🔥 ANY level mover – if you are not sure you are “there” – be brave, take up that space! Submission is FREE!
🔥 Using floor, pole, lollipop or chair
🔥 Any gender
🔥 Round 1: Submit a video of you performing a 2-4 minute routine that emulates sensuality. Twelve qualifiers will be selected to go to the live final round. Submissions open November 1st and close January 5th or when maximum number of video applicants are received. This can be from an old routine, you at the club on your shift, you moving on your living room floor – just show us your sauce!
Rules and Regulations for Video Submissions
🔥 Round 2: The qualifiers will compete in a live performance at Gay 90s on April 26th where you will perform for one of three titles and one of three spots in our 2025 Dark and Dirty show in September along with additional prizes and some serious bragging rights! Performers will receive their tips and the three winners receive cash prizes!

Dark and Dirty: The History
Started in 2021, the owners wanted to create a weekend celebration of sensual movement. It started as a two-day event that host guest instructors from all over the globe as well as our very own Minnesota-grown talent. The owners wanted a weekend that students could completely indulge in their sensual movement desires and lean into their dark and dirty side. A weekend where propriety and proper behavior went out the window. A weekend of indulgence.
