Burlesque for all genders - day cursus

Burlesque is the art of the tease and we traditionally associate burlesque with hyper-feminine performers and pin-up poses, but did you know that burlesque artists have always played with gender? There is space for all bodies and aesthetics in burlesque and in this one day workshop we will explore what burlesque can be for every body - no matter your gender, size, age, ethnicity or ability. 

Expect lots of playful movement and mind exploration, laughter and fun, and don't worry, no nudity needed!

What will we be doing?

- history of burlesque, paying close attention to bodies that were not always remembered in history

- affirmations for body confidence

- warm-up and sexy burlesque moves

- the art of removing clothing

- the look of love

- what makes a burlesque act

- different styles of burlesque

- playing with music

If you are interested in learning how to tease, but don’t see yourself in hyper-feminine burlesque references, this course is for you. If you are a feminine burlesque performer who wants to expand your burlesque vocabulary, this is also for you. In fact, this course is for everyone, of all genders and no dance experience is required.

Wear something comfortable that you can move in, if you are comfortable to bring something sexy, please do, and join Bustie La Tish on this fun ride!
