And to answer some of your questions regarding the Velvet Kittens' Burlesque Body Sculpt classes…
What is Burlesque Body Sculpt?
Burlesque Body Sculpt is a dance-fitness class incorporating burlesque style movement for a full body workout.
What are the benefits of Burlesque Body Sculpt?
Some of the benefits of BBS include a stronger core, muscle toning, increase in coordination and flexibility…and it's all presented in a fun, relaxed atmosphere!
What is the Summertime Blues Burlesque Workshop Series?
Summertime Blues is a specialty workshop combining the Burlesque Body Sculpt formula of 30 minutes of stretching and toning, then 30 minutes focusing on one burlesque style dance number. Every session of Summertime Blues is danced to blues music, and incorporates a new dance prop. (Boas and Blues, Fedora Fever, etc)
What if I really just want to take burlesque for fun, and not really concerned about a workout or stretching?
Any type of dance movement requires your muscles to be used in a particular manner to execute the movement. Some of the movement may be foreign to your body. It is of the utmost importance that whenever you engage in a physical activity, you perform the proper warm-ups for that precise activity. All styles of dance rely heavily on a strong core for safe and proper execution of dance movement as well. Also, as a dance-fitness class, Burlesque Body Sculpt is presented and instructed as a dance class, with the added bonus of also being a fitness class.
If your gym or studio would like to offer one of our Burlesque Body Sculpt classes or workshops, or another course from our program, please contact us.
