An introductory mini lesson in Burlesque. Naimah, also known as Kalypso Kraken in the burlesque world, offers a glimpse behind the curtain into the art of the tease with burlesque style movement, act building techniques, storytelling, costuming tips, history, and some resources on where to further your burlesque education. We will explore the bits and glitz behind the glamor and discuss what burlesque is and is not. Please bring with you an extra layer of any garment to peel off and a bowl of confidence even if it's half full at the start.

With her passion in so many art related ventures, her style is best described as eclectic, eccentric, and versatile.
