“Quite literally the most fun I’ve had in years!”
“I loved the Friendly, Girlie atmosphere and have made a couple of new friends too. I also loved having the opportunity to be creative and come up with the concept and choreography for my own routine. I now feel sexy again and ready to embrace my new found confidence.”
“I think the selling point for me is that this is not a class about learning to take your clothes off (stripping) it is about freedom, self expression and empowerment. Deadly and Cherry were both fabulous and supportive teachers, bringing a different approach and encouraging us to develop our own way to be Burlesque.”
“You will be amazed at the confidence, knowledge and friends you will gain in just a few short weeks, even if you don’t want to perform on stage, I would still say go for it, no matter what age you are, what weight you are you will be amazed at the power of a woman’s body, And how to use it.”

We will begin with an introduction to burlesque and it’s history, before moving on to learning a few basic Burlesque poses and putting them all together to create a Burlesque routine. We will then add in glove and stocking removal with a workshop on Confidence and character-building at the end.
The Course will be five hours long and this will include an hour’s break made up of two fifteen minutes and half an hour. It will take place in the upstairs room in The Shakespeare, 146 -148 Gibralter Street, Sheffield, S3 8UB.
Please bring your own pair of opera length gloves and a pair of cheap or old stockings.
We would suggest that you wear/bring a short sleeved top and a skirt/shorts/hotpants (for ease of stocking removal) and a pair of heeled shoes. Please feel free to embrace the Vintage look by dressing glamorously if you wish, but please do not wear anything that will restrict your movement like a corset or a pencil skirt. Keep clothing loose.
