Consisting of six 1-hour dance classes over six weeks, this course is an introduction to the most fabulous dances that influence and inspire burlesque dancing!The course will introduce you to a variety of authentic vintage dances, that were seen on the Broadway, cabaret, vaudeville and burlesque stages of the 1920s, 30s and 40s. You'll learn to Charleston like a 1920s flapper, kick like a 1930s showgirl, cut a rug like a 1940s jitterbug, and of course bump and grind like the authentic burlesque starlets of the 1940s and 50s.
