Burl-Exotique

This intensive 5-hour workshop offers you the chance to polish the burlesque moves you already know and to learn some more advanced techniques!

You will be taught a complete choreographed burlesque dance routine by special guest teacher Torie aka Lil’ Miss Chievous.

Burlesque expert Jo King will then teach you how to:

  • Invent a persona/character to create a mood and a story.
  • Use music and costumes to support story, character, and theme.
  • Perfect the use of any prop of your choice to enhance your performance (please bring this with you).
  • Perform a classic strip“tease” with scintillating style — including the removal of a dress, bra and stockings!
  • Apply pasties and get your tassels twirling.

You will be shown how to formulate a routine, incorporating all of the above.  The day ends with an opportunity to further benefit from Jo King’s amazing 30 years experience in a question and answer session.

You will need to wear a shoulder strap dress that gives you ease of movement, a back-fastening bra, stockings (with a suspender belt) and easily removable shoes with a heel of some sort. Please note there is an element of nudity in this class as it is necessary to remove your bra to learn how to tassel twirl properly.

The cost is £150 per person. There are only 10 places available.
