Group classes are a great way to explore burlesque while working with others! Your instructor will create choreography for the class to perform together in the end-of-session showcase.

You will create and source your own costumes, with guidance from the instructor to help bring your vision together. Build confidence, connect with your peers, and shine as part of a burlesque ensemble!

Polish and Shine!

This ensemble class celebrates classic vintage showgirls and showponies while building precision, stage presence, and the magic of performing together.

Refine your performance skills, embrace your sparkle, and experience the thrill of being part of a dazzling ensemble!

Pre-req: Completion of Group Performance Level One and Level Two


Solo classes offer a unique opportunity to develop your own original burlesque act! You'll create your own choreography and costumes, with guidance from the instructor and valuable feedback from your peers through structured peer review.

The class includes lesson days, workdays for collaboration and practice, and time outside of class for independent creation. By the end of the session, you'll have your very own solo performance ready to take the stage at our showcase.

Level up!

Elevate your solo performance with an advanced class focused on musicality, storytelling, stage presence, and intentional artistry. Inspired by the vintage glamour of Volstead’s Emporium’s Appetite, you’ll create a sophisticated solo act designed to captivate any audience.

Refine your craft, embrace timeless burlesque elegance, and step into your power as a polished performer.

Step into the spotlight as part of the glamorous chorus in our brand new showcase at Volsteads Emporium. This class celebrates the timeless elegance of classic vintage showgirls and showponies, with a focus on precision, stage presence, and the magic as an ensemble!

As a member of the ensemble, you'll play a highly involved role throughout the showcase. The chorus will open the show with a short choreographed, playful number throughout the speakeasy, perform a group striptease, and help create seamless transitions between solo performances—including assisting with light stage cleanup and serving as our glamorous "Tip Babes."

Throughout the session, you'll refine your performance quality while embracing the sparkle, sophistication, and teamwork of a traditional chorus ensemble. Students will create one glamorous costume with support during two dedicated costume-building workshops.

Please note: Due to the performance requirements, students may enroll in either Polish & Shine or the Advanced Artistry class, but not both during the same session.

Refine your artistry and elevate your performance in this advanced solo class designed for experienced burlesque performers. Inspired by the timeless glamour of Volstead's Emporium's acclaimed production Appetite, you'll create a sophisticated, vintage-inspired solo act that emphasizes presence, musicality, and intentional performance.

Throughout the session, you'll explore how to command a non-traditional performance space, deepen your connection to your music, and develop the confidence to hold an audience's attention through nuance, storytelling, and authentic stage presence. Rather than relying solely on choreography, this class focuses on the finer details that transform a good performance into a captivating one.

Students will receive personalized feedback from Deeva Rose, with special guest instruction from Bessie Snow, who will join select classes to share her expertise and artistic perspective.

All music selections must be approved by Deeva Rose and Bessie Snow, and each student is required to create an approved vintage-inspired, high-glamour costume that complements the aesthetic of the performance.

This class is ideal for performers looking to polish their craft, embrace classic burlesque, and develop a performance that is both bold and unforgettable.


Prerequisites: Completion of Solo Performance Level One and Solo Performance Level Two, or instructor approval from Deeva Rose.
