About this Event
10 week term in Penrith. (Moved to a BIGGER location as class was overbooked already! <3 Come join the fun!)
Vintage Burlesque is a playful and empowering dance class inspired by classic burlesque traditions, old Hollywood glamour, and timeless stage presence. This class celebrates confidence, character, and the art of tease through embodied movement and expressive storytelling.
Drawing from traditional burlesque vocabulary and vintage styling, we explore posture, walks, gestures, and classic shapes while building strength, coordination, and body awareness. Movement is taught at a supportive pace with a focus on musicality, intention, and confidence rather than perfection or performance pressure.
Expect a welcoming and inclusive environment with guided warm ups, standing sequences, and playful choreography elements. We build functional strength, balance, and control alongside grace and expressiveness, supporting both physical confidence and personal style. Options are always offered and you are encouraged to move in a way that feels aligned and self led.
Vintage Burlesque is suitable for all bodies and experience levels. No prior dance or burlesque experience is required. This class is ideal for anyone wanting to explore classic glamour, sensual expression, and embodied confidence in a way that feels joyful, respectful, and affirming.
Come as you are. Discover your own version of vintage allure. Leave feeling confident, playful, and radiant.
Optional performance opportunities throughout the year!
Book early to avoid disappointment! We transform the space with small mirrors and sensory friendly lights to create a welcoming sensory friendly atmosphere each week.
