(Live Stream Option Available)

Join the Queen of Classic, Maple Rose, in this workshop focusing on the origins and art of undressing!

Learn techniques & innovative ways to take off and tease key items of a burlesque performer’s wardrobe. This workshop also focuses on the historical context of why and how various garments have become fundamental to a burlesque performer's wardrobe. Throughout the workshop, you'll delve into the intricacies of strip tease techniques, mastering the art of revealing just enough to leave your audience craving more.

Bring whatever burlesque basic pieces you have for practical play (for example gloves, corset, bra).

Maison Burlesque Summer School

Looking for a burlesque fix these Summer Holidays? Maison Burlesque Summer School is BACK - and it’s BIGGER!

Covering not 1 but 2 weekends of summer, we are offering an online Summer School Schedule of 6 live-streamed lectures, as well as our regular 20 In-Studio workshops. 

All Summer School workshops are open to all genders and all levels of experience.

Please note that workshops are coded as Low/Mod/High Physical Intensity - please be aware that High Intensity workshops are the most physically intensive, and likely to build up a SWEAT! If you have any questions regarding your suitability please contact us.
