Teacher Training for Burlesque

At Weird Aunts Creative, we believe in empowering teachers of burlesque to not only create safe and confident atmospheres for their students, but to do the same for themselves, their peers, their colleagues and their employees.

We believe that the key element is creating and understanding community.
