Traplesque with

Zyra Lee Vanity

Sunday September 17 2-3 pm
Location: Playwrights Horizons Studios in Greenwich Village
440 Lafayette St in Manhattan, Fourth Floor, 4A
Preregistration required to attend.
To register send $25 to Zyra.


Level: Beginner/ Introductory
What to Bring: Comfy shoes or heels! An item to tease (sweater, scarf, glove, etc.), bottle of water!

Known as Toronto’s Urban Desire and Canada’s traplesque seductress, Zyra often uses elements of classic costuming and classic movement against urban trap music to create dynamic, edgy and fun neo acts. Dancing to trap music is all about attitude, saying “FU!” to respectability politics, unapologetically living, confidence and having fun! In this class, Zyra will teach you how to own all of that as well as do the burlesque basics (such as bumping and grinding), but to trap music! This class is choreography based and is designed to help you bring out your inner bad and bougie traplesque goddess. Learn how to move comfortably to trap music while still teasing!
