Summary:
A lap dance typically lasts for one or two songs, roughly 5-8 minutes. You’re usually seated in the main club area or a semi-private section where other patrons can see what’s happening. The dancer performs close to you, but physical contact is limited by the club’s rules, and most places don’t allow touching unless explicitly permitted.
Standard pricing runs $20-25 per song, with package deals like 3 songs for $75 or 5 songs for $100. The experience focuses on visual entertainment and some interaction, but you’re sharing the space with the general club atmosphere. Think of it as a personal performance within the larger party environment.
Standard lap dances in semi-private booths cost between $20 and $50 per song, but the real cost depends on your location and the club’s positioning. At Atlantis of NYC, you’re looking at competitive rates that reflect the Jamaica, NY market.
The key thing most guys don’t realize is that DJs sometimes cut songs short, and not everyone notices. You might think you’re getting a full 4-minute song but end up with closer to 3 minutes. Always clarify pricing with the dancer or club staff before agreeing to anything to avoid surprises when the bill comes.
Some clubs do lap dances right where you’re sitting, while others prefer separate areas so other patrons don’t get a free show or get distracted from the main stage. The location affects your privacy level and overall experience. If you want more attention focused on you without distractions, ask about our club’s setup before committing.
What you’re paying for is personal attention from your chosen performer, but within the club’s general environment. The interaction is often flirtatious and playful, with eye contact and engagement that makes the experience feel exclusive and special. You’re not just watching a show—you’re part of it.
Table-side dances happen out in the open, in front of everyone at the club, and cost less than private room options. This means you’re getting entertainment, but you’re also part of the club’s general energy and noise level.
The atmosphere is social and energetic. You hear the music from the main stage, conversations from nearby tables, and general club activity. This environment doesn’t allow both the dancer and customer to focus completely on the performance without distractions from the crowd or loud music.
Some guys prefer this setup because it feels less intense and more like part of the overall night out experience. You’re not making a big commitment or investment—you’re sampling what we offer. Many experienced club-goers recommend getting a table-side dance first before venturing into private areas or rooms.
The most successful dancers aren’t necessarily the prettiest—they’re the ones who know how to connect with people and make genuine conversation. In the lap dance setting, you get a taste of this connection, but the environment limits how deep that interaction can go. These men just want a connection, and that’s what they come for.

VIP private rooms are small rooms located in separate sections of the club, featuring dim lighting, a door, couch, and side table. This is where the experience shifts from public entertainment to personal attention. We offer additional amenities like bottle service, creating an even more exclusive atmosphere focused on intimate experience.
VIP dances usually last for 30 minutes, giving you significantly more time than standard lap dances. Typical pricing runs $150 for 15 minutes or $300 for 30 minutes, though rates vary by location and club positioning.
VIP room sessions can cost significantly more than standard lap dances, sometimes reaching into the hundreds or even thousands of dollars. At most clubs, you’re looking at structured time blocks rather than song-based pricing.
Time-structured deals vary based on location, with 15-minute VIP sessions around $150 or 30-minute sessions around $300. Hourly rates can run just under $500 but can go as high as $1000 to $2000 depending on the club’s location and positioning.
The investment is substantial, but you’re paying for exclusivity and extended personal attention. Some club owners cut time short—25 minutes instead of 30—while charging full price, so establish expectations upfront. We offer set packages where you can purchase blocks of time like 15 or 30 minutes in advance.
Standard options include half-hour or one-hour VIP private room sessions. The longer timeframes allow for more relaxed interaction and conversation. A one or two song lap dance is a good test, but it may not be as memorable as a private session in a VIP room. You’re making a bigger commitment, but you’re also getting a completely different level of experience.
Private rooms are located in more secluded parts of the club, featuring designated spaces with privacy, cushioned seating, and dim lighting to set the mood. You don’t get a completely private room with a door—usually just a curtain, and security checks in periodically.
The experience focuses on personal attention and conversation. Part of this job is practically being a therapist. In private rooms, dancers have time to actually talk with you, learn what you’re looking for, and create a more customized experience. On quieter weeknights, it’s quiet enough that you can spend time chatting with an entertainer after your paid dance.
While the dance is meant to be provocative, it remains a professional performance, with dancers being skilled entertainers who create a sensual atmosphere while maintaining professionalism. Don’t assume VIP means you can touch freely—club rules still apply, and dancers can handle themselves if boundaries are crossed.
We have cameras monitoring private rooms, and there are strict rules like never letting customers stand up during dances. The security is there for everyone’s protection and to maintain professional standards. The overall goal is to enjoy the experience and remember the moment.
What makes a great experience depends on how you define it and what makes you happy and feel good. Once you pick the right performer based on physical or mental attraction, the experience becomes more enjoyable every time. Your choice between lap dances and private rooms should match your budget, time, and what you want from the night.
If you’re testing the waters or want to stay part of the club’s social energy, lap dances give you a taste without major investment. If you want personal attention, extended time, and a more intimate experience, private rooms deliver that at a higher price point. At Atlantis of NYC, with over 20 entertainers nightly, you have plenty of options to find the right fit for either choice.
Consider your priorities, set your budget beforehand, and communicate clearly with performers and staff about expectations. The right choice is the one that matches what you actually want from your experience.
