This class will explore how to embody music for Burlesque performance. Participants will connect with their bodies through a guided warm up consisting of dynamic movements and intentional stretches to maximize mobility. Students will learn how to dissect and highlight different elements of a song–from lyrics to instrumentation–through listening, observing, and experimentation. Students will learn a short choreographed combination where they will learn how to pace themselves while delivering a dynamic performance that builds from beginning to end. Participants will be given hands-on instruction and personalized critiques to help them fully embody the music with certainty, confidence, and personal flair.<\/p>\n

Stage Presence: Outside with Ella Bottom Rouge (Italy)<\/h3>\n

07.11.2026, 14:00-16:00<\/strong><\/p>\n

Burlesque is the ultimate live performance, where in just 5 minutes anything can\u00a0happen. How do we face an audience that is always different\u2014or worse, what do we do\u00a0when something goes wrong? How would Our Character react if they were truly alive?<\/p>\n

Through improvisation, we will learn to fully own the stage in every possible scenario,\u00a0while remaining true to the character.<\/p>\n

This workshop is suitable for those who already have stage experience and is open todancers, actors, and performers in general.<\/p>\n

Key elements: development of powerful emotions (love, hate, anger, joy, seduction) \u2013\u00a0sustaining eye contact \u2013 improvisation exercises \u2013 work on one\u2019s performative self.<\/p>\n

Please bring a stage prop that is part of your regular performance repertoire.<\/p>\n
