Fan Dance & Burlesque Workshops plus 1-2-1 Mentoring
Chichester Fan
Dance Workshops
Enjoy a bit of 'me time doing something you may have never tried before​ through the art of fan dance!
You may have zero aspirations to ever perform in public, or perhaps you secretly wish you had the confidence to get on a stage​
Either way, this Starlets workshop will give you the freedom to embrace the beautiful and empowering art of burlesque-style fan dancing ​
Please note, there's no striptease or nudity but moves, where it's implied and explored, are fully embraced. The perfect pick-me-up if you feel that you deserve it. All genders (over 16) welcome
Never have I ever laughed so hard, felt so comfortable and enjoyed myself so much. Dawn has such a wicked sense of humour you cant help feel at ease immediately.
Starlet: Diva. Leading lady.
Superstar. Somebody. Aspire.
Talent. Hero.
Chichester Burlesque Workshops
The monthly workshops are in Chichester on a Wednesday evening (why not?) at the Nuffield Gym Dance Studio in Chichester, West Sussex
​This highly empowering session will contain some basic skills, with progressions plus a full routine that develops the art of tease and confidence.
​
With a full choreographed routine designed to gather and showcase the moves learnt during each session. There is no need to book for a course as each session is a standalone show, yet you can come back time and time again to join in the fun!
​These workshops are not designed specifically for professional dancers and can be enjoyed by all ages (18+) and abilities​. The objective is to uplift, develop and light a spark to make you shine like the Starlet you are!
I've been to dawn's burlesque classes for 5 years now. I'm not the most confident person in the world and Dawn has taken the time to help me develop and grow with a smile, she is a fabulous (and patient) teacher!
1-2-1 Mentoring
Whether it's preparing for stage performance or simply becasue you'd like to work on your day-to-day confidence but in a really unique way, I can work with you to achieve your individual goals. With over fourteen years experience in the entertainment world and over ten in the cabaret & burlesque industry, I've rubbed shoulders with the finest acts in the land. Previous to that, I spent many years as a sales & networking coach, working mainly with women with the aim of improving projection and confidence skills. My techniques were always quirky and so discovering burlesque as a medium to the same goal back in 2012 was a complete awakening!
