Los Angeles and Beyond

I’ve got a big week coming up and I hope you’ll join me, in the flesh or virtually!

First, I’ll be premiering my show, Pretty Funny, at Three Clubs in Hollywood on August 15th. It has top talent stand up comedians, burlesque and bellydance! It is going to be fun and funny! Get your tickets now!

Then, I will be celebrating 2 years with my fan club on Patreon. Over the past 2 years, I have been able to share photos and videos that I am not allowed to share on any other social media platforms. It has really allowed me to experiment with different ideas that aren’t all necessarily burlesque, but are all sensual/erotic or even completely ridiculous and funny. It has been an awesome creative outlet and I’m so happy to share it with my fans, who are THE BEST, by the way. I’m grateful to Patreon for allowing me to truly be ‘The Most Naked Woman’! Join the club now and get access to the archives and see all new photos and videos every month!

In teaching news, I am 5 students away from my goal on Studio L’amour online. Here you can learn burlesque from anywhere in the world. I upload new videos every month that cover technique (burlesque and ballet based), fitness, choreography and my real talks, where you ask that questions. Once I reach 50 students, I will reward my online students with a special interview with burlesque legend, Kitten Natividad! Register now and get access to a year’s worth of videos and all new material this month!

And finally, if you are in the LA area, I am now teaching regular weekly classes at Fit and Bendy Studios. You can join me on Tuesdays for Tease ‘n’ Tone and Burlesque Basics.

See you around town or online!

June Chicago Dates

on By

I’m currently half way through my European tour and I just found out that I was named one of ‘The Most Influential Burlesque Figures of the Decade’ by 21st Century Burlesque Magazine. I am so honored by this. It’s nice to be acknowledged for my work in this field. It was a really nice surprise today!

Right now, I am in Rome for some play time and then I will head to Bordeaux to teach and perform, then on to Paris for more play time, and my final stop will be Vienna for some shows. Then, I’m off to Vegas to perform at the Orleans in the Burlesque Hall of Fame weekender on June 3rd. Talk about culture shock! Vienna to Vegas! But, there is no rest for the wicked. I will be back in Chicago on June 7th. Here’s where you can find me:

June 7th – Untitled at 9pm
June 8th – Naked Girls Reading: Lunatics – Readings all about the love of the moon at Skylark Chess Society – 8pm
June 9th – Untitled at 9 and 10pm and Big Sexy Show at 11pm at the Comedy Bar
June 10th – Burlesque Workshop at Dovetail Studios – Boa Love at 2:15pm

Hope to see you in Chicago!

Birthday Month!

on By

It’s my birthday month! The actual date is April 15th (yes, that’s a reminder to get your taxes done) but I will be celebrating on April 12th at Unbridled at Untitled. There’s no better way to celebrate my birthday than to have a show full of half naked people performing for me. Really, it’s a dream come true! The show is at 9pm and I plan on doing some things with cake…

Then, on April 14th, I’ll be teaching another workshop in Chicago. See the details below:

 

Chicago – April 14 – The Tease – 3:45-5pm – $25 – Register

Location
Dovetail Studios
2853 W Montrose Ave
Chicago, IL 60618

Room111_2017_12_28-1508

In ‘The Tease’, you will learn a full choreography that involves props. For this first Tease workshop, we’ll be working with a robe, garter band and bra. There will be no nudity in class, so you can wear all of these props over your clothing. It is recommended that you bring your own props. Heels are also recommended but optional. Register

And later, on April 14th, I’ll be at Big Sexy Show. The show starts at 11pm at the Comedy Bar and will end a little after midnight, so at that time, I’ll be officially turning 21! Tequila please! Tix

Hope to see you in April in the Windy City!

The Future of Studio L’amour

on By
My burlesque school, Studio L’amour is coming up on 10 years in Chicago! The Dojo for your Mojo has been the home to hundreds of women who have found confidence and self esteem through the practice of burlesque. We are so honored to have been the place where vulnerability, fun, sexiness, and strength reside.
 
The studio has been through many changes over the years and is about to undergo another one. Since I have been traveling and producing so much these past few years, I think it is best to operate the studio in a different manner. Studio L’amour will primarily be an online burlesque school. I added this to the curriculum in June and have really enjoyed making videos for my students there. I put up new videos every month and they feature technique, fitness, choreography and real talks where I answer questions. This has been very rewarding for me as I am able to have students from all over the world and I”m not just limited to a physical space.
As for Studio L’amour as a physical space, I will be offering monthly workshops, as will the other teachers. There will not be regular weekly classes as of March 1st. I know this will be very upsetting to some of you, as burlesque is incredibly addicting, but it is for the best. I see the future of Studio L’amour as a kind of ’boutique burlesque school’. It will be a place where you can refine your craft but also a place for newcomers to explore their sexuality.
I am very thankful to my teachers over the years: Lady Ginger, Frenchie Kiss, Kami Oh, Vivian Velvet, Fanny Tastic, Ivy Fabulous, Lily Bloom, Sasha Darling, Midnite Martini, Gaea Lady, Dahlia Fatale and Mary Pat LeTourneau. Because of them, we were able to offer THE BEST burlesque education in Chicago.
I’m very excited about the future of the studio and the new freedom we have! I hope to see you online or in my workshops! Oh, and bachelorettes, we’ve still got you covered! You can schedule a private class for your party any time.
Thank you for your continued love and support over the years. Stay tuned for March workshops!
