About The Event
Cab Lab is excited to bring to you Pop Up Burlesque Workshops with Holly von Sinn! Saturday August 6th, 12:00 - 3:00 pm Holly will be offering 2 different workshop series while they're here. Each workshop is 1.5 hours and will take place at Evergreen Community SPACES. Workshop details below Clowning for Burlesque - $30 12 pm - 1:30 pm (all skill levels/all mobility)
In this class you will work through movement based clowning exercises with the goal of building stage presence, become more grounded, making stronger choices on stage and character building skills. We will explore how to make choices like a clown, how character choices affect movement, and how play in the studio translates on stage. This is a movement based class however these movements are self directed based on prompts so this class is accessible to all skill levels and mobility. Please wear clothes you can move comfortably in, runners or bare feet is recommended for footwear and please bring a water bottle to stay hydrated. Stop, Drop and Roll - Basic Floor Work for Burlesque - $30 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm (all skill levels/some mobility limitations)
In this class we will work through how to safely get to the floor, what to do when down there and how to get back up. We discuss how floor work helps make an act pop, how levels should be considered when building an act and adding floor-work to your bag of tricks. Please be advised that most movements in this class can be modified for most skill levels and mobility; however this is a movement class that will engage your core, lower back and legs(knees and hips) in repetitive movements. Please wear clothes you can comfortably move in, heels are completely optional, bring knee pads and/or a yoga mat to help with impact of movement and a water bottle to stay hydrated. $30 per workshop OR do both for $50!
