About the event
Learn the art of classic bump and grind burlesque with the enchanting and charismatic, Miss Baby Daisy! Known for her signature blend of timeless burlesque glamour and whimsical clownery.
Miss Baby Daisy invites you to explore your inner showgirl (or show-clown) in a fun, supportive, and liberating environment. This 2hr workshop will teach you the foundational moves of classic burlesque—sultry shimmies, dynamic bumps, and teasing grinds—combined with elements of comedic storytelling and character work. Perfect for beginners and seasoned performers alike, this class promises laughter, empowerment, and the sparkly magic of burlesque. Let Miss Baby Daisy guide you to shine with confidence and charm!
Whether you're looking for a fun new way to exercise, meet like minded people, learn how to walk in heels or you want to step foot into becoming a seasoned pro, this workshop is suitable for students of all calibres, ages, shapes, sizes, colour, gender and sexual orientation, we welcome all in burlesque.
What you need;
Comfortable dance clothes ( gym wear, t-shirts, leggings, tights, tracksuits ) whatever you are comfortable to move your body in.
Some students like to wear burlesque style clothes like fishnets, leotards or lingerie. This is of course accepted it's all about feeling your sparkly self but please no corsets as they can restrict movement.
Please bring heels you are comfortable to strut in, I recommend dance heels with soft soles as they are great to slide and glide in but any style with a low to medium heel work great. High heels are great if you're feeling devilishy dangerous but as long as you can still feel grounded for the choreography, nothing can get in the way between you and these killer classic moves. Heels are optional if you prefer barefoot or socks thats of course still very welcomed, we can still feel connected to movements in our footsies.
Please bring water because it's going to get HOT with all the sizzling sauce.
Lastly please bring your smiles...
Nothing will compare to the empowering energy of a burlesque class. It's a room full of humans worshipping their higher selves. YES PLEASE!
Please note, It's a comfortable space for you and your important self to FEEL THOSE OATS. We praise and lift each other and there will be no room for judgment, self doubt or negativity.
There will be a chance at the end to capture a video of the routine you have learnt. This is optional, if you would prefer to opt out of the video thats of course okay, just stand to the side and make sure to be out of frame.
