Double The Trouble: Partner Work

This open-level burlesque workshop introduces students to the world of doubles choreography. Whether you're bringing your bestie, your performance partner, or meeting someone new in class, this workshop is designed to build confidence, trust, and connection while creating a playful and engaging burlesque routine.

Participants will learn how to move comfortably and confidently alongside another dancer, exploring techniques that enhance stage presence and create visually dynamic partnerships.

Participants will develop skills in:

• Partner awareness and spatial connection

• Mirroring, matching, and complementary movement

• Building trust and confidence with another performer

• Creating chemistry and storytelling through partnered choreography

• Stagecraft and performance techniques for doubles acts

• Collaborative movement and audience engagement

The choreography will be accessible to all experience levels, with a focus on connection, communication, and having fun rather than technical complexity.

Participants are encouraged to bring a partner, however solo attendees are absolutely welcome and will be paired up during the workshop.

This class is perfect for performers who are interested in creating duo acts, expanding their stagecraft skills, or simply trying something new in a supportive and playful environment.

Please bring: water bottles, knee pads, heels (should you wish to wear them) & yourselves!
