Burlesque: Air, Water, Earth, Fire
Jo Weldon, Headmistress of The New York School of Burlesque, presents a new online series in collaboration with the world-renowned scholars at Morbid Anatomy.
The series guides students into exploration of seductive dance movement through literal and mystical interpretations of the four elements of air, water, earth, and fire. Air dancing will incorporate inspiration, stillness, and lightness. Water movement will address undulating, smooth, shimmering dance, exploring both water’s surface and depths. Earth movement will focus on balance, grounding, and floor moves. Fire movement will incorporate passion, speed, seduction, and brightness. Ultimately students will access the fifth element of Spirit!
Throughout, students will discover which elements they wish to embody, and essential burlesque details about music, costuming, and props will be part of the discussions.
