As an extention of our mission and core values as women and a thriving contemporary burlesque troupe, we hold an on-going series of burlesque fusion dance classes followed by a $3 bloody mary and mimosa bar every Saturday and Sunday! The movements we cover and routines we create for these beginners classes are meant to be a vehicle for women to celebrate themselves and take ownership of their sexuality and social confidence, while increasing core strength, grace, flexibility, fluidity and of course having a blast!

SATURDAYS: The Technical Class, where we focus on fitness, flexibility and fluidity through an intense core warm up, followed by burlesque/jazz fusion combos. We concentrate our movements specifically to cater to the shape and strength of a woman's body, and get a sensual and powerful workout at the same time!

SUNDAYS: The Routine Class (10 week session cycle , ongoing). Each week we build upon the previous week's choreography, culminating in the option for performance of the final routine at the next Siren's event (performance is optional of course, we have many women who participate in the routine class that are there just for fun!). The Siren Instructors lead the class through a basic warm up, and then jump right into the choreography - routine styles vary with every ten week cycle, but always involve aspects of classical burlesque, including but not limited to glove removal, hat & cane/chair dances, and of course injected with The Siren's signature fusion style! This class is always a blast and allows students to jump out of their shell and explore their sensuality through improvisation and personal interpretation of the choreography - after all, burlesque is an art form that is all about you! 

**Both classes are walk-in and ongoing**

What should I wear to class?  Anything that does not limit your mobility works well (as you will need your full range of motion to fully experience the workout!) - yoga pants, shorts, stockings w/booty shorts, tank top/tshirt, jazz shoes/sneakers, etc. will all suit you well!
