Harlesque Academy

Harlesque Academy returns this October 👻!
Empower your sensuality, unleash your inner showgirl, and step into your confidence in a six-week burlesque academy led by Harley Harpurr—aka The Devil’s Trophy Wife.
After a sold-out debut, Harlesque Academy returns starting Sunday, October 5th, now offering two levels of burlesque class and introducing a brand new Boylesque class!
✨ Boylesque Class (all levels) | Sundays 3:30PM -5:00PM
✨ Beginner Burlesque Class | Sundays 5:00PM – 6:30PM
✨ Intermediate Burlesque Class | Sundays 6:30PM – 8:00PM
(Intermediate students must have performed in at least five live burlesque shows.)
Across six weeks, you’ll grow your skills and confidence, all building up to the Harlesque Academy Showcase on Wednesday, November 19th, where you can step into the spotlight with a group routine and your own solo performance, if you’re ready to own the stage.
Whether you’re brand new to burlesque or ready to elevate your skills, this course is a celebration of self-expression, body confidence, and unapologetic glamour. You’ll learn the fundamentals of burlesque performance—movement, musicality, costuming, stage presence, and the sacred art of the tease—all in a supportive, inclusive environment.
Bonus Perk:
Graduates of Harlesque Academy are eligible to stage kitten at official Harlesque Burlesque shows and be considered for future Harlesque productions.
