Get your last minute spot for Burlesque Choreography! http://ezezine.com Hello Burlesquercisers! There are some last-minute spots available in this month's "Burlesque Choreography" series with Fromagique! This series is a great opportunity to go over some of the most popular acts performed by the Burlesqueteers, plus be the first to learn a BRAND NEW act that has never been performed! If you want one of the last-minute spots in the Burlesque Choreography series, just go here: http://www.bombshellbetty.net/burlesquercise.html . These spots are available through Sunday! Also in March, guest instructor MJ Paul will be teaching two wonderful classes: "Fosse-esque" Burlesque Jazz and Cardio Can-Can! Descriptions of these classes are below. When in doubt, "Shake it!" Betty http://www.bombshellbetty.net * BURLESQUE CHOREOGRAPHY with LIVE accompaniment by Fromagique! In this special burlesque choreography session, we will be focusing entirely on the choreography for the Burlesquercise acts that are performed with Bombshell Betty's burlesque band, Fromagique! The band will play the music for the last class in the series, so that you can get some experience performing with a live band. It's exhilarating and VERY different from performing to a CD. You won't find another class like this anywhere! In this series, we will go over the steps for "Put a Lid on It" (a sassy Charleston act), "Feeling Good" (a slinky Chair Dance routine), plus a BRAND NEW group act, never before taught or performed! Building up to the choreography, we will cover basic Charleston and chair dancing techniques that you can use for future acts or on the dance floor. All participants in the Burlesque Choreography series are invited to perform these acts with Fromagique at upcoming shows around the Bay Area! Mondays, 6:30-8:00pm March 2, 9, 16 & 23 NOTE: Fromagique will play music for the class on March 23!

Do you want to learn to dance, but you're too intimidated to attend the "beginner" dance classes at most dance studios that seem "advanced" to you? MJ Paul's unique and non-intimidating beginner's dance classes will focus on movement and stage presence, and your body awareness will improve dramatically. You will increase your perfomance value, strengthen and develop your core, improve your flexibility, and learn basic dance skills that you can already do without even knowing it! This class will be invaluable as you pursue burlesque and other dancing interests! MJ Paul can be found teaching various workshops and master classes throughout California. He is the longtime assistant to Emmy award winner Suzy Miller and has been dance director/resident choreographer for SF Boylesque for the past 18 months. His varied theatre background has included working on productions such as: Cabaret, Damn Yankees, A Christmas Carol with the renowned Gilbert Reed Ballet, 12 days of Christmas with Ballet Theatre of SLO, Kathy Mata Ballet, Bombshell Betty's Burlesqueteers, and Fieldwork at Shotwell Studios. All students in Fosse-esque and Cardio-Cancan classes are eligible to perform in Bombshell Betty's shows around the Bay Area! * CARDIO CAN-CAN! with MJ Paul Get in shape with Cancan Dancing! Each Cardio-Cancan class starts with a ballet based warmup and stretching. Then we go over specific steps and techniques for cancan kick lines, traveling steps, turns, and more! Finally, get your heart pumping with flirty cancan choreography! It's so much fun, you won't even realize you are working out! Appropriate for all levels of skill and flexibility. Please wear soft soled dance shoes or socks. No heels or street shoes. Feel free to wear fun stockings, frilly skirts and flirty knickers!
