Vivienne VaVoom's School of Burlesque January Lessons (Burlesque Queen Course with Vivienne VaVoom)

Full newsletter here: http://tinyurl.com/yco6xzd Lots of new & fun stuff for 2010! First off I've redesigned the School of Burlesque page at VivienneVaVoom.com and taken it from the drab cream to hot, hot, hot pink! Along with redesigning the page, I've redesigned my classes. I'm now offering two levels of my burlesque lessons: Starlet and Queen courses, which both start the first week of January. Burlesque Starlet classes will be an introduction to burlesque. There will be a recital, but rather than creating your own act, you'll learn a group number and build a basic (inexpensive) costume and perform with the class at the recital, rather than solo. That way you'll have more skills and stage confidence under your shimmy belt when you go on to take the Burlesque Queen classes! In the 4 week Burlesque Queen class, you'll pick music, create your own number, costume and moves, plus learn about character development, lighting, using props and chairs and more! Plus each student will get a private session as part of the course. The Starlet class or previous burlesque experience is required to take the Queen class! Many of the Burlesque Queen classes are available as drop in classes for current performers or those who have already taken my classes. On Sunday January 31, I'll be offering my Master Class to help girls ready to increase their fan base, start performing more, and move on to national and international gigs. We'll cover marketing and working with the press, how to write a press release, creating fans/a following, getting bookings, national conventions booking your own tour in/through other cities, working with local photographers, costumers and artists and more. I'm also offering private lessons, and currently have a very flexible schedule. Contact me at viviennevavoom@gmail.com Remember, even if you can't commit to a full course, we've got several fun drop in classes like Fan Dancing, Tassel Twirling, Gloves and Stockings and Showgirl Makeup. And they're open to any skill level. Hope to see you in 2010 at our lovely little 278 Galapago studio! Happy New Year! Michelle Baldwin "Vivienne VaVoom"
