A lap dance is a type of erotic dance performance offered in some strip clubs in which the dancer typically has body contact with a seated patron. Lap dancing is different from table dancing, in which the dancer is close to a seated patron, but without body contact. With lap dancing, the dancer may be naked, topless, erotically dressed or undressing during the dance, depending on the laws of the jurisdiction and the club's policies. Some jurisdictions do not allow nudity where alcohol is served or contact occurs while in others nudity is only allowed where skin contact does not occur requiring at least one of the participants to wear clothing. Where specific licensing exist for sex work such as prostitution the dress requirements may also be dependent of the licensing of the establishment.
