We were so happy to welcome some new faces to our Comedy & Clowning drop-in class yesterday 💛🤡

Thank you for being brave, making bold choices, and committing fully to the work. That’s where growth happens.

Next week, we shift gears to Acting for Burlesque … diving into character, intention, and how to make every movement and moment read with clarity.

✨ Drop-in spots are available.

And a reminder: you don’t have to be a seasoned burlesque performer to join us. While this class is higher education especially helpful for those with some performance (or art) background, it’s absolutely accessible to anyone looking to build confidence, presence, and dynamic storytelling … whether that’s for the stage or beyond.

We’d love to have you in the room.
