WORKSHOPS - SATURDAY OCT 11
Demi Noire – Musicality Workshop
This is a dance class centred around finding more than just counts in the music. It is centred around burlesque (however no striptease required), focusing on hearing the music in a new way and pulling the most out of percussion and lyrics to really embed yourself in the sound without the use of 5,6,7,8.
Fun, sexy and open to all levels.
Great if you are not confident in picking up choreography and also fab if you are a burlesque artist wanting to play with music differently.
Please bring suitable dance heels (no Pleasers – unless very confident) Appropriate dancewear or clothes you can move in comfortably.
Bryona Ashly – Costume Creation Magic
Step into the world of costume creation with a hands-on workshop designed to ignite your creativity! I’ll share my personal approach to building unforgettable stage looks, including clever tips and tricks for using materials in unexpected, fabulous ways.
We’ll begin with an overview of my process—how I dream, design, and bring each piece to life—followed by dedicated one-on-one time with each participant.
This is your chance to ask questions, get personalized advice, and receive feedback on your own work.
Participants are invited to bring one costume piece or project they’d like feedback on during the session.
Whether you’re just starting out or looking to level up your costuming game, this workshop will leave you inspired, empowered, and ready to create magic.
Ginevra Joyce – Showgirl Attitude
After a short warm-up, Ginevra will guide you through a series of technical exercises designed to improve body posture and control. You will explore walking techniques, bumps and grinds, body alignment, arm movements, breathing, facial expressions, and attitude—everything you need to become the perfect showgirl and leave your audience breathless!
This workshop is suitable for all levels, from beginners to advanced performers. Everyone is welcome to join and celebrate their unique style and energy in a fun, inclusive, and supportive environment
Suggested attire: Leggings or a leotard, and dance shoes.
Bettie Bombshell – Glamour Ghouls Feel your way
Prop required: A long sleeve shirt/ robe/ wrap or something of that nature. A smoldering workshop focusing on owning your space, connecting with your audience & your body. During our lesson will explore the art of commanding a room with subtle, and not so subtle movements using a robe/ shirt/wrap to create meaningful, delicious choreography. It will be thick and juicy and oh so ghouly!
You will walk away from this workshop with the confidence of Morticia and the power of Vampira.Bettie will teach you a piece of choreography to perform at the end of class in groups. It’s sexy, it’s powerful, it’s so much fun!
What do you wear?
Anything that makes you feel comfortable darlings! I want you to feel gorgeous, so wear whatever helps you feel that way. Is it lingerie? Is it active wear? It is a giant garbage bag? Whatever it is, wear it!
Heels are optional in all my classes, bare feet is absolutely fine by me.
