This class is perfect for anyone whose goal is to unleash their inner power and conquer their most confident and empowered self, but don't know where to begin.
Burlesque is a female-led, body positive dance movement that welcomes everyone no matter of gender, age, size, ethnicity or race, sexuality.

We've created a safe space for all women to come and explore their sensuality. At our class, we will be slowing down, dimming the lights if we can!, putting on our sexy clothes if you want to.

FAQs
What if I can't dance?
This class is aimed at a beginners level, but anyone is welcome to join. We want to build your confidence and glow, not to train aspiring professional dancers.
Do I have to wear heels?
For the main workout just wear whatever you feel comfortable learning dance moves and moving around in. We do encourage everyone to bring a pair of heels and give it a try, but of course it is not compulsory.
What type of heels should I wear?
We don't want this to be a painful experience, so please wear something you can be comfortable in. If in doubt, check out our IGTV video on our instagram page for heels recommendations from our teacher @bawburlesque.
Do I need to wear gym clothes?
Gym clothing or similar is recommended, something you don't mind getting hot and sweaty in.
Will there be water breaks?
Feel free to stop whenever you feel thirsty and drink some water.
Can I bring my friend ?
YES!! Our aim is to create a safe space for all women to unleash their power without any judgement. They need to make sure they grab their ticket!
Is there an age restriction to your classes?
Yes, 18 over only!
