become a burlesque dancer
Started as a student and now own my own burlesque school!

Once upon a time in Chicago, I saw an ad for burlesque classes. I had a glass of liquid courage wine to prep and went, not entirely sure what to expect, but whoa! class was amazing and with a fantastic instructor, Ms. Michelle L’Amour herself. I trained under Michelle for a year before graduating her invitation-only performance class in December ‘08.

Since I’ve performed across the US and at several burlesque festivals. I moved to Nashville, and while there is a great, small scene here, there was no place to mentor new dancers. So I started the www.DelinquentDebutantes.com, Nashville’s only burlesque school, to pay forward what I have learned.

I absolutely love performing and teaching this truly American art form. Good luck to everyone with this goal!

It took a while, but I’m loving my long tresses!



Start my own business
Introducing the Delinquent Debutantes!

Last month, I started my own business. It is Nashville’s first and only Burlesque School.

I teach workshops and classes on body confidence, burlesque routines, and the bump and grind.

I am absolutely loving my students and the process so far, although the paperwork is still daunting!
