Just saw this on Donna-Marie Foster (Dixie Licious)'s Facebook. Can't make it myself alas, but if there are any other MoBers in the Toon it might be worth your seeing if it's booked up (looked like places were going pretty fast though!)

(see Learn Burlesque | Facebook for full details)

Date: Thursday, 07 January 2010
Time: 20:00 - 21:30
Location: Sammy Jack's
Street: Front Street
Town/City: Newcastle upon Tyne.

In this session you will learn the basics of burlesque with an experienced performer in a supportive, friendly environment.
I teach in the form of simple routines with easy to learn moves making it a fun experience which will also boost your confidence and self esteem.

Every age and shape welcome!

You'll need long gloves, a robe and a feather boa or scarf. What you wear underneath is entirely up to you. Some people may want to dress up for the sheer fun of it (like me!) and others may be more comfortable in leggings and a fitted t-shirt. They'll be no 'stripping' as such, I'm just easing people into it with a bit of fun! ;D

I will also give a brief demonstration of the much loved ostrich feather fans and of course - tassle twirling!

THIS IS NOT AN OPEN CLASS, YOU WILL NEED TO BOOK YOUR PLACE IN ADVANCE AND SPACES ARE VERY LIMITED.
THE COST OF THIS ONE-OFF WORKSHOP IS £10.
PLEASE EMAIL DIXIEBURLESQUE@HOTMAIL.COM AND I WILL SEND YOU A PAYPAL INVOICE.
