Love the one you're with! Or so the old song goes. Instead of sad resolutions to change your body this year, how about learning to love, move, and shucks, WORK the one you've got?
Big Moves Bay Area is thrilled to partner with Rubenesque Burlesque founder and director Juicy D. Light to bring you a Burlesque for Big Beginners workshop. You'll learn burlesque basics and come away with a new appreciation of your own beauty.

Where: The Beat Studio, 2560 9th Street (between Parker and Dwight), Berkeley, CA

Please wear clothes you feel comfortable dancing in, and burlesque-y props if you have them: hats, long gloves, boas, etc. We'll have a few extras, too. Comfortable high heels are fine for this class.
