Description:

Striptease:

This workshop is a safe space for all folks to learn new sensual movement and performance skills in a non-judgemental environment. It is especially geared towards students that want to learn how to connect with the audience and bring a personal, authentic feel to their dancing.

In this 90-min workshop, Arlene will teach you basic Striptease skills incorporating fun and darn sexy floorwork. It is not strictly a Burlesque workshop, however she will draw from her extensive knowledge and experience in the art of Burlesque in regards to building the tease and engaging with your audience, be it your own reflection or a loved one.

We will begin by discussing mindset and what it means to be standing in your power, to help you to become more at home in your own sensuality. Arlene will then teach you basic striptease tricks and a short choreography that you can bring home, which incorporates all of our newly found sultry skills.

This will not exactly be all about dancing in order to please your partner or dancing to get attention. The focus will be on learning to move for your own joy and appreciating your own brilliance. In short, being the queen of your own queendom.

You must bring an extra layer on top (like a long sleeve top, something not too tight!) And an extra layer on bottom (like shorts on top of your shorts). Heels are not essential but recommended, provided that you can comfortably dance in heels and that they are a pole dance brand (eg: Pleasers). Leg warmers and knee pads are recommended.

Please feel free to dress up in sexy, sparkly attire (but make sure it’s comfortable and allows you to move/dance easily). Equally, wearing sweatpants and a hoodie is also fine, provided that you feel comfortable in it!

Please note that during this workshop, participants may be required to ‘buddy up’ and work in pairs, so that we can practice what we are learning with each other. Direct eye contact will also be used during this workshop.

Suitable for all levels: It is recommended that participants have taken some sort of pole dance class or basic dance class as a minimum before taking this workshop
