Fan dancing class with Delilah, Sunday, April 19, 2009

Join international burlesque star Delilah as she teaches to fan dancing! She's an incredible performer with a graceful ethos which belies a naughty sense of humor. Plus she's really handy with the fans! :-D

I think I've read that she'll be headed to Vancouver and the U.K. soon, so catch her class with Red Hots Burlesque's School of Shimmy before she leaves for her tour of exotic locales.

Fan Dancing with School of Shimmy: Burlesque Classes

Whether you are a novice or a professional, Delilah's fan dancing class will benefit you. Beginners will gain confidence and poise, performers will have the opportunity to refine their stage craft. Even if you are not interested in performing, fan dancing provides an incredible and fun workout for your upper arms (and all over)!

In this class we will focus on hiding, revealing, tantalizing and teasing the audience. In addition to learning the fundamentals of working with fans, we will also touch on staging, movement, gesture and expression, bringing it all together to encompass all you need to create a glamorous and confident stage presence. Learn to use your face and your body to create different moods, from vampy to campy! Learn how to work the stage to incredible effect!

You are welcome to bring your own fans, or anything else that can be used as a substitute. Bring high heel shoes comfortable to dance in and easy to remove (or ballet slippers), and comfortable clothes that are easy to move in.
