Upcoming Classes: Drop-Ins, Can-Can and More! http://ezezine.com Hello burlesque fans! Lots of classes coming up in the next few months, and I am doing something I haven't done in a couple of years: starting in October, I will be offering Burlesquercise drop-in classes! I have also added more Cardio Can-Can classes and an Intro to Burlesquercise Mini-Series for November. I can't wait to receive my book, "Plain Jane to Pinup Queen: Pinup Modeling Workshop in a Book," from the printer! It will be in my sparkly little hands very soon, and I am really excited. I will be sending out another newsletter very soon with more exciting news about upcoming shows, including details about my performance and the Burlesqueteers performances scheduled for this year's Tease-o-Rama, the international burlesque convention here in San Francisco in October. In the meantime, have a look at the details for the fun classes coming up! Shake a tail feather!

Want to take Burlesquercise, but your schedule is too hectic to commit to a full series? Special Burlesquercise classes are now available for drop-ins! Each month, learn a different group act performed by the Burlesqueteers! A different routine is covered each month, which will be performed at student shows the following month. You can jump right in and participate in performances or just learn for fun while getting a great workout. It's up to you! Are you working on a solo act you would like to perform? Sign up to workshop your act in class and get feedback from a supportive group of your peers while getting experience performing in front of an audience. Various burlesque techniques and subjects are covered by request or as appropriate for the choreography taught each month. ***NOTE: These are intermediate Burlesquercise classes, and some knowledge of burlesque skills and techniques is assumed. Previous attendance of Burlesquercise classes is required! OCTOBER CHOREOGRAPHY: "Hoofer meets a Vixen" from Singing in the Rain. - Gene Kelly and Cyd Charisse. Classic, classy and sexy.
