Our mission is to introduce you to different fringe art forms in a safe, low-pressure environment and give you a chance to perform onstage! We’ll be offering a variety of 8-week sessions in the heart of Lakeview from professionals that you know and love - including burlesque, bellydance, clowning, sensuality and fitness. Whether you’re getting your groove back or adding some drama for the first time, you can do it with creativity, self-expression, and confidence! Classes are open to all humans of all identities!

When registering, please use the email address you check most frequently. During our sessions, we send important class information that you won't want to miss!

REFUND POLICY: Full registration refunds are given through the first week of classes only. Extenuating circumstances are an exception.
