Unleash Your Inner Star: Discover the Magic of Burlesque at Brass Ovaries
Burlesque is more than dance. It is character, confidence, storytelling, and sensuality brought to life through movement. It’s not about perfection—it’s about embracing your authentic self and expressing your unique flavor, flair, and personality. At Brass Ovaries, our Burlesque class invites you to step into the spotlight, shed self-doubt, and discover how captivating you truly are.
Whether you’re flirty, fierce, playful, elegant, mysterious, or wildly sassy, Burlesque helps you tap into your inner performer. You’ll learn how to shimmy, shake, slink, and strut in ways that feel natural yet empowering, sexy yet classy. In this class, the goal isn't to be “good”—the goal is to feel bold.
What Makes Burlesque Different—and So Special?
Unlike traditional dance classes that focus heavily on technical precision, Burlesque is all about expression. It blends movement with personality, confidence, and emotion. It teaches you how to perform—not just dance.
In Burlesque, you’ll learn how to:
Develop a unique character or style
Use facial expressions, eye contact, and gestures to tell a story
Move sensually with purpose—not just choreography
Command attention with simple, confident motion
Embrace femininity, playfulness, and theatrical flair
Burlesque isn’t just a dance style—it’s confidence training in disguise.
Class Format: Learn, Express, Perform, Empower
Whether you’re brand new or have dance experience, this class is designed to be playful, welcoming, and confidence-boosting. Each class kicks off by reviewing the featured monthly routine—no worries if you join mid-month, because everything is broken down slowly and refreshingly.
What to Expect in Class:
Warm-up focused on sensual movement and posture
Technique training: shimmies, hip rolls, body waves, slinks, walks, and more
Learning parts of the routine with guided breakdowns
Character building: finding your “burlesque persona”
Performance time: small groups take turns performing for each other
This final performance section is supportive, uplifting, and incredibly rewarding. You’ll cheer, clap, and celebrate with each other, helping build confidence in a fun, safe atmosphere.
Why You Should Try Burlesque—Even If You’ve Never Danced Before
Many students arrive nervous, convinced they’re “not sexy enough,” “not flexible enough,” or “not confident enough” to perform Burlesque. But within one class, that thinking changes.
Burlesque isn’t about fitting a mold—it’s about breaking it.
Here’s why Burlesque is perfect for everyone:
You don’t need dance experience. You just need curiosity and openness.
You don’t need to be flexible or fit. You’re free to move at your own pace and style.
You don’t need to be confident. You just need to show up—the confidence comes naturally.
Burlesque shows you that sensuality isn’t a body type—it’s a feeling. It’s about how you own your movement, not how perfect it looks.
The Artistic Side of Burlesque: Find Your Character
One of the most exciting elements of Burlesque is discovering your persona. Each dancer brings a different vibe to the stage—some are sultry, some are playful, some are edgy and dramatic.
In class, you’ll experiment with:
Facial expressions and theatrical attitude
Eye contact and audience connection
Musical timing and seductive pauses
Costume-inspired character building (gloves, hats, etc.)
Improvisation techniques for storytelling
You don’t just do the choreography—you become the performance.
Recommended Gear: Dress the Part, Feel the Part
To help you move safely and confidently, the following items are encouraged:
Knee pads – Essential for slinky floorwork and smooth transitions
Legwarmers – For comfort and flow during floorwork
Flexible or loose-fitting clothing – So you can move and pose with ease
Heels (optional) – For those who want to elevate leg lines and confidence
Don’t worry—this isn’t a costume-required class. But having the right gear helps you dive fully into the art of Burlesque.
