become a burlesque dancer

So I’m watching videos of burlesque troupes and I keep thinking “I can do that”.
I just don’t know where to start. Dance classes obviously but as for the actual burlesque, I’m lost. None of the local troupes are “inclusive” or really have tryouts for armatures. So, how to I start?

Pin-Up class was amazing today. And Amy and Bettana were so sweet. I got the quick background on how Amy got into burlesque. So maybe with a little luck and some condom lollipops, I could someday do a show with those awesome ladies.

Looking into dance classes to help me move more sexy-like.
Found out that Studio 7 is offering a Vintage Burlesque class. Perfect. Now, if I could only get some info. I’ve emailed the studio to see the cost, times ect. They emailed back saying they would forward it along to the instructor. Still waiting to hear…..

My dream burlesque job…. Pretty Things Show. These girls are amazing and exactly the vibe I want to go for.

Signed up for their San Diego How to Be a Pin-Up workshop next week. $200 is painful but I had to.

Took my first burlesque workshop yesterday with the amazing Catherine D’Lish. She is tiny, talented and very sweet. The classes were very fun (and very challenging).
All in all, a good start.
