I've done Resa's Living Social deal 3 class package, some one-on-one classes, and one of the workshops. I can't even begin to describe how amazing and different I have felt since I started doing this. I have never felt more confident and more sexy. If you're looking for a cardio workout class, I don't think this is the right place for you. But if you want to find some sexy confidence and learn a few moves that you can actually use at some point (without having to buy a pole and have it installed in your house), I highly recommend classes with Resa. I also bought her DVDs which I found really helpful when it came to practicing on my own. Although I have yet to use any of my newly learned moves, I have certainly been taking advantage of the new found confidence! Living Social Classes: Striptease Moves and Ideas: This was my first class with Resa. It mostly focused on ways to feel sexy and confident and encouraging the use of the dance moves. We learned some of the basics like "the walk" and "the crawl." Lap Dance: I went to the class alone and most of the other women had a friend with them. I'm not sure if it's more or less awkward to practice on a stranger than a friend but it's worth being prepared. This class is probably the one I expect to use the most move from though I think I benefited the most from the first class because it made me start thinking about my sexuality. Striptease Using Wall Instead of Pole: This was my final class and I think it made a great closer. It was definitely the most physical of the three classes. It focused on using a wall or a doorway and just being sexy and sticking out your booty. One-on-One Classes: These were fantastic. They forced me to practice and I got a lot of feedback and advice on how I was moving, what I was planning on wearing and when in an evening is best to give your man a surprise dance. BJ/HJ Workshop: This would be a fantastic group activity for a ladies' night. I learned a lot and there was lots of fun laughter throughout the night. Videos: The videos are fantastic if you're like me and can't seem to remember anything for more than five minutes. I watched them whenever I was practicing and I think it really helped. Other classes that I look forward to taking include: Lap Dance using Chair, Striptease Floor Routines, Pole Fitness, Booty Shaking Yoga, and Exotic Pilates Other events: Sexy Women and Wine Night - a meet up at a local wine bar for women who attend Resa's classes and want to meet other women with common interest to talk about relationships, life, and, of course, wine. read more

I took striptease moves without a pole. Resa was nice, great attitude. However this class was more of a confidence builder for those who need it. The entire routine we learned was about 2 min long at best and most of it can be seen on her website on the opening page. There was not a lot of room to move around which is unfortunate when you are doing sexy, intimate moves with a bunch of strangers. I noticed a lot of promotions through living social which may explain the lack of availability/class times. The location is right around the corner from Gaslamp so parking may be difficult at times. ebyresa advises the option to park at Horton Plaza; I find that a bit inconvenient with the walk and navigating through the parking structure. I can see how this would be fun for a bunch of friends, like a bachelorette party. But for me as an individual it was just okay and I will not return. I prefer Fun Pole Fitness. read more

Resa is amazing! My roommate, some of her friends, and I purchased a Living Social deal for a 3-class package, but given the size of our group Resa recommended a party instead. I cannot explain how much fun it was! She came over a little before 8pm, very friendly and easy to talk to, then she started off with the strip tease tutorial. She played some music and made all of us feel comfortable with the moves. After the strip tease party she hosted a passion party for us and had samples of some of the items. I must emphasize how great she was :) I can't wait to go to one of her classes or workshops! read more

Took 3 of Resa's striptease/lap dancing class. She pretty much shows us how to do the moves and has us try it out. She is very patient, funny and a great teacher and does the moves slowly so that you will be able to get it the first time. She explains every move - when she does it, how to do it... I would recommend her if you are looking to spice up your relationship, learn something new, have fun or want a confidence boost. She makes to feel really comfortable and everything really easy to learn. Only downside is that the studio is a little small, but luckily, there were only about 6 girls every time I went so it wasn't too bad. And parking is kind of hard to find, but Horton Plaza is about 3 blocks away and you can always find parking there so it's not too bad. Definitely recommend! My favorite was the lap dance. All the classes are fun and by the end of the class, you will definitely learn something you will want to take home. read more

I was visiting a guy who lives in San Diego and came upon her website while looking for lap dance/strip tease classes to take while there. Communication was excellent from the very beginning and I ended up booking a 2 hour private lesson at her home. I really like the private lesson as she catered it to my level (I've taken other similar classes and have a dance background) and she even encouraged me to use my own dance experiences in the routine. She was very friendly and proffesional, I would definitely recommend her to anyone wanting to learn these types of classes. And the results of what I learned was definitely well recieved ;-) Thanks Resa! M.C read more

My maid of honor hired Resa for my bachelorette party, and she was fantastic. Very professional, approachable, funny & open - an excellent instructor all around. Every single girl at my party said it was the best bachelorette they'd ever been too! Woot woot! We did strip-tease and lap dance lessons, as well as some discussion exercises to help broaden our sexual horizons...definitely some red faces in the room but hilarious and very thought-provoking. There were about 15 of us, and Resa did a great job with a larger group like that - I think a smaller group would be even better to get more of her know-how. My girlfriends and I are planning on taking more of her classes, fo' shizzle. She has an awesome dinner party package on her website too, which I think would be worth checking out. read more

I bought a living social coupon for striptease classes because I thought it would be fun, maybe learn something, and get a great workout. I've only been to one of my three classes, but I love Resa! She is a great teacher. It was a lot of fun, definitely learned several moves, and broke a sweat. It's not a strenuous class, more of an educational class. Resa has a lot of other fun things going on--ladies' wine night, Sunday brunches, glamour day, discount day for laser hair removal. Her classes are in Pretty-Is, which is a ladies' boutique. Pretty-Is is unique because you can borrow the clothes, wear them, and return them! When you become a member, you can take up to 5 outfits out at a time. Cute clothes, jewelry, shoes, etc! Definitely going to keep this boutique in mind! read more

I'm 67 years old and thought the class was a hoot. It was a workout as I don't exercise regularly, or nearly at all. I couldn't do the squats but could do everything else. The other four young ladies in my daytime class were congenial. The small area wasn't a problem for this size of class. Resa is fun and a great teacher. She goes slowly enough that we could get the moves and she will tell you when you aren't arched enough, etc. I feel she is experienced and knowledgeable. My boyfriend will be blown away when I have practiced enough to feel confident enough to do a striptease for him. That is right up his alley. I have only taken one class but look forward to my remaining two. Resa's advertising paid off big time. This was written in 2011. read more

I recently attended a teaser lapdance event and it was SO MUCH FUN! Though Resa has her classes/events at different venues, this class was held at her home with an initimate size group of girls. Instead of it feeling like a 'typical class', it felt like you were having a really good time with your best girlfriends. In just that one hour, you learn so much. I was so impressed that I immediately signed up for her next workshop and will be buying her DVDs. Resa is the best - she has the experience, the patience, the sense of humor, professionalism, and passion for what she does. Take a class with her! The teaser that I attended was only $10 - you learn so much and plus, free champagne (you can't beat that)! She offers different classes and workshops, as well as social events like the monthly wine events which is a great way to meet cool women in San Diego for friendship, networking, etc. I'm definitely hooked. Thanks, Resa! read more

I met Resa in 2008 for one of her classes. I am shy, but she made me feel comfortable and yes, even sexy. Within a couple of weeks I had a new confidence that I know helped attract my husband. She also gave us some simple tips of positions/movements that guys really like. Yes, I still use them to this day and my husband LOVES them! Besides a great class, she is such a great person that we still hang out. I highly recommend her. read more

Had fun at her class! Just need to schedule my next ones and I can't wait. The class teaches you to be sexy and empowered! I can't wait to use these moves!!! read more

I took the teaser lapdance class last year and enjoyed it so much - Resa provides a comfortable yet fun setting, and I've met some great women at her events. Taking her classes has boosted my confidence in my ability to perform an erotic dance, if the occasion should ever call for it. I also enjoy the monthly wine events she hosts - she finds great locations, and it's the perfect way to relax on a Thursday evening after work, with a fun group of women. I would recommend Resa's classes and other offerings to anyone who is interested in learning more about exotic dance or just getting in touch with their sensuality. read more

I'm awaiing my dvds in the mail! Once I get through those, I plan on taking the phone class! I read more

I was in Dr. Resa's group class for a bachelorette party. We had such a good time! The class was a good balance of being educational and fun. She teaches about empowerment of not just women but for men too. I thought this class was well rounded. She answered lots of questions and gave good advice. I wish she had a podcast... a few of us were talking later about how we just wanted to hear more her stories. Like I said, she did a good job of sharing content, stories, and tips. I would definitely take another class from her. read more

I first attended her teaser session about 4 years ago. Being a sexologist, I have seen both great and not-so-great teachers in sensuality, sensuality and female empowerment. I can honestly say that Resa is an incredible teacher! She is real, she is fun, she is compassionate, and she is sexy! She has the experience, and she is generous in sharing everything she knows. After being impressed by the first teaser class, I then took her lap dance class. Wow, was that a great class! It was so great that we have decided to combine our teachings together and we now offer combo workshops of Blow Him Away (mine) and her Lap Dancing class. I LOVE her class so much that even after so many classes together, I always participate in her class. I always learn some new move, and my Asian derrière moves so much more naturally (and of course, in a very sexy way) than I had ever expected. Of course, another reason why I participate in her class is to see the happy faces of all the girls. It's so wonderful to see everyone having so much fun while learning to express themselves!! If you want to feel sexier, be more confident, and move more gracefully, I cannot recommend her classes more!! Try it, you will love it! read more

I met Resa though Facebook and decided to buy her video to learn some new moves. I was so impressed with the way she moved, she made it look simple and very sexy after a coulpe of trys I was ready to take it to the next level ;) Thanks! Lupe A read more

I found Resa from a LivingSocial deal. I initially bought the voucher to learn some moves and get some ideas for a little "present" for my husband for our upcoming 10yr anniversary. I had soo much fun not only just learning the moves and ideas, but getting in touch w/ "alter ego" side, learning to stay confident with not just myself, but with my moves and to just have fun w/ it. By the end of the 3rd class (from the voucher) I became a member. She not only has the classes that offers the strip tease moves and ideas, using wall instead of pole and lap dance (all that you get w/ the voucher) she also has instructors who teaches Yoga, Pilates, Pole Dancing ( I haven't been able to get to the Yoga or Pilates class because its offered during the day when I'm at work :( ) . I have taken the Pole classes and boy is it fun and a work out! Resa's membership offers unlimited classes to members to take the ones I mentioned above, as well as her Floor routine, Lap Dance using a Chair, Wearing heels/taking your clothes off -- yes, it does take a little practice taking your clothes off and wearing heels to make it look sensual, and to feel confident doing so. And her monthly Sexy Women and Wine events that she does is also fun. A way to make new friends, socialize, network and to just relax with other fun ladies! She also hosts other fun events too. Resa is very personable, easy going and fun. read more

Yes, the lessons are fun but definitely *beginner level*. It's really just a great way to spend some QT with your girls and gain some encouragement and self confidence on your basic moves. Resa is personable, funny and able to set a relaxing mood. Drawback: After booking my Sister's bachelorette party 4 months in advance, including a $100 deposit, I expected everything to go off without a hitch. One hour after she should have been there, I called, emailed and texted Resa. After offering to return my deposit rather than showing up, she finally relented and lived up to her appointment (she explained that she lost my contact info, which in the day of email was rather confusing to me). She also promised to give EACH girl a DVD as a "consolation"; an offer she ended up extending only to the bride-to-be. Most important drawback: She overcharged me $100. To her credit, I'm not sure if she forgot about the deposit (which didn't do much good in securing her presence!), but after all the drama I was more willing to let that money go, rather than deal with further issues. read more

The class was exciting. Incorporating knowledge with some laughs. I felt really comfortable. In the future I will recommend her to any of my girlfriends ready to get together to try something different. read more

We just had a bachelorette party. She was great and we learned a lot about blowjobs, handjobs and lap dances.

Resa is a very knowledgeable, kind, and warm person. This is perfect when you are about to embark on a journey to learn how to strip or lap dance. The only con I had was the venue. There is simply not enough space to perform crawls and to roll around. For lap dances, the chairs and wooden bench outside are not suitable for really getting a feel for the moves. It's hard to learn a routine when you are worried about positioning so you don't fall or hurt yourself. read more

Resa's classes in San Diego were great. She is the perfect person to teach sensitive subjects to women- with enthusiasm, candidness, and technique. did i already say FUN! ...you will reap the benefits. put down the silly magazines with taglines to grab you. there's no content there. Resa's classes are a much better alternative. read more

Resa's classes are so much fun. Some of the girls are sent to her by their boyfriends or husbands. Some want to learn sexy moves. Some just want to have fun. I took some classes with my girlfriend. We shared a lot of laughs especially when we practiced lap dance on each other. What I like about her is that she teaches you to be confident about yourself. You need to have the right mindset. You are the sexiest when you practice and put it into action. read more

Resa is friendly, patient, and full of great tips and tricks! Private lessons are great if you are shy about trying to figure out how to move in front of others; but the DVD's are my favorite, because you can get all of the pratice you need while you're in your own home. read more

I took a set of three classes taught by Resa. They were SO much fun and it really gets your thinking outside the box. Resa makes you feel comfortable and sexy in your own skin. She was helpful yet allows you to customize all the moves to make it your own. Additionally, I really liked that the classes were small. Since these striptease classes are personal, you want to feel comfortable and having an intimate setting was much better. I'm even thinking of booking her for parties for girl's nights! I would highly recommend these classes for anyone who wants to learn more about striptease and confidence building! read more

This is a fun class. Not only does Resa teach you how to bring your sexy out she makes the girls in her class feel comfortable with the moves she teaches. Resa is a great instructor and helps build the confidence needed to connect with your sexy goddess energy. Loved this class, got an excellent workout, and made new girlfriends too! read more

i attended a bachlorette party where the hostess had resa come by and teach us the art of striptease and lap dances and it was an awesome (and super funny!) time! a great way to just have a good time with the girls, learn a few things, and get in touch with your sexier side... resa was great -- professional, casual, and easy-going so you didn't feel like awkward or uncomfortable... a great activity for a bachlorette party, birthday party...or you know, tuesday? read more

Resa breaks down the information step by step so anyone can do it and look sexy. Yes, anyone! She shares real secrets that work. read more

I recommend Resa 100% for all of your exotic dance endeavors. She is a beautiful lady with amazing talent and you will feel at home and comfortable as she teaches you. I enjoyed my first class so much that I came right home and started practicing. Then I got on the computer and joined her meetup.com group to stay informed! Can't wait to go back! read more

resa was very inviting & easy-going, informative of her business & background, and i sensed too that she is very passionate of what she does, which in my honest opinion, is very admirable! i signed up for a teaser erotic session not sure of what to expect and had an opportunity to meet other new & potential "friends" in the process and learn techniques to highlight my 'erotic' side which felt uninhibiting and damn fun! we laughed, shared stories and i look forward to trying other upcoming classes provided by resa. i most definitely will refer resa to all my friends that are interested in adding some pizazz back in their life. it's a great way to rediscover what a lot of us women often times priortize less in our hectic lives, when i think it should be celebrated everyday if all possible! be passionate in all things is my motto... thanks resa, you're totally awesome! read more

I had decided it was time to get myself back into feeling sexy and desirable. I signed up for Resa's class and was blown away by her friendliness, sensuality and directness. She makes all women feel like they can do anything and everything they want. The class does not only teach phenomenal moves that you can use on that lucky person in your life but it give that self assuredness every women needs to be the best she can in life. I recommend this class for anyone looking to remind themselves how terrific they are or for the women who needs the skills to believe how terrific she is. read more

I wasn't sure what to think when my friend said she wanted me to attend a striptease/lap dance class with her, but my curiosity got the best of me and I decided to give it a try. It was actually a lot of fun! Resa was fun and professional. I recommend it! read more

OMG!!! Too much fun! We got a bunch of girls and did the teaser class. I loved feeling my body move is a way that it has not, I loved learning tips that I could do on my own to enhance my moves, like practicing "the look". But what I really got form the class was that this is an avenue for me to help increase my self esteem and confidence in myself and being a woman. I had so much fun that I started doing some privates with Resa and I also got her DVDs. My boyfriend said, "I don't know what you are doing or what videos you are watching but keep doing it." PS, he has no clue that I was doing privates or got DVDs, you can really learn a lot and do oh so much more..... ; ) read more

Resa is sooo friendly and sweet. The striptease/BJ class was great. I learned a lot and had fun with my girl friends at the same time. I would recommend booking Resa for bachelorette parties! read more

The class was so much fun, and Resa makes you feel like you can be sexy at any size or age, whether or not you have dance experience, which I have none. I am totally uncoordinated, but Resa really makes you feel at ease, and brings a lot of laughs to the class. The DVD will help me to practice, so I don't feel like a moron when I go to strip for my hubby. Also, would love to endeavor on the rest of the services Pretty Is offers. Fantastic business! read more

I've taken a couple of Resa's classes and can highly recommend them! She's easy to understand and follow, and makes it fun, which to me was the point. On a serious note, I got four marriage proposals the first time I tried her moves (all from the women in the class with me, but still)! Step out of your regular dancing shoes and try this on for size. You might love being sexy! read more

I was having a Ladies Night at my house, and booked Resa for a lap dance party. Not only is her business great, but she is as sweet as you could imagine, and very sociable! She immediately clicked with all the girls, making the whole "grinding on each other part" not awkward at all! The price was very reasonable, especially for the amount we learned and all the fun we had. She definitely helps you boost your confidence and feel sexy, even if you think it's silly dancing around w your friends and for your man. Resa did an awesome job and I HIGHLY recommend her! read more

We just had the most amazing bachelorette party at Pretty Is boutique where we spent the first part of the night trying on clothes and shoes to rent and having fabulous hair and makeup glamour makeovers. I spent only $25 on my entire outfit for the night including shoes, dress and accessories! I really recommend this place for girls night out, bachelorette parties or birthday parties. Their website is http://www.pretty-is.com. Check out my Yelp review on them too... Afterwards, Resa gave us a fun, casual and comfortable lesson on the art of seductive striptease. After 10 years of marriage and 3 children, I needed a refresher course! Our bride is a very shy girl but Resa was able to help her open up and really start enjoying herself. We learned the sexy walk, the crawl, lap dancing and a lot more. She was very good at making us all lose our inhibitions and really bring out our inner sexy! I reserved my dates with her 3 weeks in advance and gave her a $100 deposit which I was able to pay through paypal. It was all very easy. Resa is very professional and such a doll to work with! Paired with the Passion Party by Nikki Nites who also came to give us a sex toy and product demo, it was the perfect bachelorette party!! read more

great classes! fun atmosphere! very patient & encouraging! highly recommend!

I recently took the striptease lap dance class and loved it !!!! At first I was a little nervous bit loosened up and had loads of fun!! You learn EVERYTHING to do a good lapdance! I recommend it to everyone. I am definitely taking more of her classes!! read more
