My dear friend AmyJane is getting married in October (yaaaay!), and as a tribute to her upcoming nuptials, a group of gals decided to treat her to a Burlesque class in Chelsea. (Thanks to Hayley & Blakely for organizing!) Oh. My. God.
It was so much funnn! Our teacher, Kitty Cavalier, was oh-so sexy and taught us some delicious dance moves. We started off with a steamy warm-up (no nudity!) and then finished with a spicy little number. The class lasted an hour and it was so silly and different, such an original way to celebrate a bachelorette's transition into marriage.
Traditionally, Burlesque dancing is a variety of acts, including dancing girls, singers, comedians, mime artists, striptease artists - all with a saucy edge. Of course, we were all wearing gym clothes and sneakers, but we were definitely sweating like crazy near the end. It was a tough work-out. Kitty encouraged us to simply love that reflection in the mirror, because "that is what burlesque is all about, loving yourself."
