Secret Weapon No. 1 (75 min)
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to learn one movement based way (secret weapon No. 1) to create a burlesque act. You’ll leave feeling like a burlesque master and creating acts will be a breeze! Or just take the class for fun!
Bring a gown or long robe to strip out of.

Chair Acrobatics (75 min)
Learn chair acro positions based on your level. Then we will make them flow with transitional choreography and music. Everyone will be spotted while executing each move. (This is a very athletic class. Please no not take class if you have back issues wrist issues).

Secret Weapons No. 2 and No. 3 (75 min)
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to learn two movement based ways (secret weapons No. 2 and No. 3) to create a burlesque act. You’ll leave feeling like a burlesque master and creating acts will be a breeze! Or just take the class for fun! The majority of this class will use the boas and satin gloves as props which will be provided. We will be on the floor briefly so clean knee pads will also be provided. Just bring yourself.
Sunday, August 4th 2:30pm
Hot and Classic Fans (90 min)
Learn a classic burlesque feather fan dance. Focus is on hand grips, body framing, the reveal and conceal, the tease, stage presence and storytelling. Make the fans come to life!
Fans are provided. Bring your own if you would like. Optional: just wear a bra or pasties after the warmup.
PLEASE READ:
All secret weapon workshops are body positive and all about discovering yourself as a complete art form. I highly recommend these classes- My students always feel empowered and they have a better understanding of how to create acts with this method.
All workshops are for new and seasoned burlesquers, or anyone interested in burlesque!
There is no prerequisite for the secret weapons (there are 5 total) they can be taken in any order.
All workshops include warmup and stretch. Bring a notebook if you would like to take notes.
Wear form fitting dance clothes. Tanks and/or bras are fine. Wear what makes you feel sexy but make sure it’s comfortable to move in! Bring socks.
