With this workshop, I will teach participants the basics of burlesque, from the history to the bump and grind to the tease. Burlesque comes from the Italian world Berle, meaning to satirize and make strange- it is a playful, fun DIY art form that is an absolute blast and allows performers to have complete control over their creation. Your imagination is the limit. Side effects of burlesque are: loving your body, feeling good in your body, tapping into your sexuality and joy.
