Hello and welcome to the wonderful world of Burlesque Chair Dance and Purple Hurricane aka Marion!
What are your perceptions of Burlesque Chair Dance? I know it as sexy, confidence building, it’s about losing weight and keeping fit but above all it is fun. The friendships I have made are incredible, it seems the one thing Burlesque dancers have in common is they are really nice people.
Now for the more perceptive of you out there, you will have noticed I am not a twenty, heck nor thirty something year old. My lovely colleagues call me a “Queen Ager”, bless them. However I am proof that age does not matter if you want to dance Burlesque, go ahead and just enjoy it.
I attended my first BCD class over two years ago on my 61st birthday. It was the best birthday present ever. My life has changed for the better ever since. Six months later I was in my first competition against these youngsters and I made it to the semi finals. Can’t begin to describe the buzz that was. Then last year I choreographed my own routine and stripped for the first time on stage and placed second. That truly was such a life event and actually inspired me to become an instructor to encourage everybody to experience such fulfilment regardless of age, size or shape. Love burlesque and learn to love yourself.
Hope to see you soon x
Purple Hurricane
