Tasteful tease arrives in town

The Belles Burlesque dance troupe, the first of their type in Warwickshire, have begun leading classes at Bath Place Community Venture at the Old Library in Avenue Road - but newcomers are still welcome to join.

All members of the troupe have been part of ballet, hip hop, jazz and Scottish dance groups but all settled on the art of tease as they enjoy it so much - and now keen to share their talents in creating famous burlesque poses and choreography, removing gloves and stockings and fan dancing, as well as swing and jazz moves.

The ladies will also show their students how to form an on-stage character and routine and introduce them to classic costumes and accessories.

Classes take place at the venture on Mondays from 7pm to 8pm.

The Belles Burlesque troupe can be seen pkerforming at the Grand Union restaurant in Leamington on December 22, as well as at Creme de la Creme Cabaret at the Wharf Inn in Banbury on December 17 and at Her Majesty’s Theatre in London on January 29.
