About Flirting with Burlesque
Beginners Welcome! This class has a focus on women's experience in their bodies, but all genders are welcome if they intend to participate fully and with respect for each other. No observers.
Learn sexy burlesque moves including bumps, grinds and shimmies! This class introduces the basic principles of burlesque movement in a fun, beginner-friendly environment. Our focus is on confidence, coordination, and feeling sexy in your body! Each class, we stretch, dance, and learn a section of a group burlesque routine.
You can register for a single class to get a taste, or sign up for the entire month's session to perfect a complete burlesque routine! (Please note: Students who wish to perform in the Flirting With Burlesque group routine at our Student Showcase must take at least 3 Flirting With Burlesque classes in the six weeks prior to the showcase before performing. )
Students Gush about FwB!
Student testimonials:
"Just started with a great new Flirting with Burlesque tonight and had an amazing time!
Really looking forward to next week and the final performance! The women are all supportive and the amazing teachers make it really comfortable and Jezebel had us laughing all night! I am looking forward to going back. You also get a serious work out too with your core and thighs. 5 STARS!"

"Want an instant makeover? This class is the closest thing you'll get to an instant transformation. I've been feeling frumpy, frustrated at the stall in my weight loss efforts, so I did the Flirting With Burlesque class last night on a whim. I couldn't believe how sexy I felt, and how good I looked after following just a few simple suggestions. It was a comfortable class and I had so much fun."
- Natalie W., Yelp
"So much fun! I just took the Flirting With Burlesque drop in class and it was so much fun! I'll definitely be coming back. You can take advantage of the student showcase that they have every month, or just go for fun. The routines aren't super difficult, so anyone can come in and join. I felt exhilarated and accomplished after just an hour long class, which was perfect."

"My focus is on burlesque moves that make you look great (no matter what size or shape you are!) You don't need years of dance training to look super sexy... you just need to know how to work what you've got. I teach easy-to-remember steps and tricks that will give you extra va-voom onstage or in the bedroom. The class will end with a short dance routine suitable for beginners, so wear clothes to move in. This class can be taken barefoot, in high heels, or in sneakers."
