My 'go-to' burlesque poses that are super easy!

I definitely get asked about posing the body, and how you can make a dazzling impression.

Firstly, it’s all about the attitude. It doesn’t matter what pose or stance you take - you have to ‘attack’ it with the same level of delusional confidence of a certain presidential candidate.

And of course your burlesque alter ego and style is going to dictate a lot about the way you want to present yourself.

However, I always have some ‘go to’ positions that I share that make me feel pretty confident and comfortable on stage.

Body acceptance in my burlesque classes

I focus on body acceptance over body positivity in my classes and in my practice. What’s the big difference? Do I even care? It might not make a big difference to you or to your experience if you engage with me online or in a face-to-face class or show. But for me its enabled a strong shift away from the emphasis on looks and body over all else.
