Burlesque Dancing in York

What is Burlesque Dancing?

Burlesque is a form of entertainment thought to have originated in the 17th century and was originally associated with slapstick comedy, dance choruses and singing. Nowadays, it still contains these original elements, but is considered an art form in its own right and has soared in popularity thanks to Dita Von Tease and the likes of movies such as The Moulin Rouge and Burlesque. Burlesque is a sensual and seductive dance style, which can include a comedic element and is totally inclusive! Burlesque focuses on embracing your confidence and truly celebrates all kinds of body types. During your class, you’ll be taught the basics of burlesque and will learn a variety of sexy dance moves, poses and will learn how to strut and shake what your mama gave you!
