Our classes will have you feeling glamorous and having fun with like minded people, all while learning some new burlesque tricks! And when you’re ready to step on stage, we provide the most burlesque student performance outcomes in Brisbane/Meanjin per year. With each term culminating in performance opportunities both on stage and on film with professional production, you could be stepping on stage for the first time in just 6 weeks if you choose to! The collective of tutors at the Academy includes artists who are fully trained (having completed certificates, diplomas, and degrees), boast numerous state and national burlesque titles, or international experience - or all three - so you’re in great, satin gloved, hands! Call it self care, call it expression, call it a very sparkly time – it’s a little holiday from the everyday world and an exciting journey to the spectacular burlesque star in you!

🔥 SECOND CHANCE TO GET YOUR BUTTONS ON (OFF?)🔥

Missed out on the original Term 7 class? Or maybe you’re ready to post some seriously sizzling festive-season content? Either way, this is your chance to learn Phoenix’s iconic routine to PCD’s Buttons (Showmusik TikTok Remix), then film it with your fellow Bombshells. Think fierce struts, hair whips, razor-sharp accents and just the right amount of unapologetic s*x appeal. 🔥

Wear your favourite lingerie or costume, bring your heels and get ready to serve.

The first 90 minutes are all about learning the choreo, followed by 30 minutes of filming opportunities in small groups. Bring your phone and a tripod if you have one, or team up with a bestie to capture your sizzling new moves.

And if filming yourself isn’t your thing, no stress. You can absolutely learn the routine, perform it and enjoy being a hot little menace without putting yourself on camera.

Join Phoenix Knight on Tuesday 8 December from 6–8pm for $55. This workshop is best suited to intermediate level, or Open level dancers who are ready for a challenge.

💀 JUST ANNOUNCED: DEAD GORGEOUS, HALLOWEEN MAKEUP WITH TANGERINE SCREAM! 💀

Join burlesque performer and professional makeup artist Tangerine Scream for a 2-hour hands-on workshop where you’ll transform one half of your face into a theatrical skull, while keeping the other half in your usual stage makeup.

Tangerine will take you through skull mapping, dramatic shadows and highlights, facial structure, skeletal detailing and blending the two sides together, with techniques designed to make the finished look hold under stage lights.

Come with one eye already done in your regular stage makeup, bring your brushes and learn how to create the perfect half-glamour, half-skull Halloween face. 🖤💀

🎃 2pm – 4pm
🎃 $80
🎃 Limited places!
