We have a variety of women as students in the VK classes, at different ages, and all shapes and sizes.  I aim to provide a fun, relaxed atmosphere for everyone participating in class.  I also have a wide variety of interests from my students:  for some this is a hobby, others a part of their exercise program, there are those who want to study the art of burlesque dancing, and I even have a singer who takes burlesque class to help work on movement for when she performs on stage.

For more information about the creation and background of the VK burlesque classes, please visit here.

A young woman, Persephone, is picking flowers one day.  The earth opens up and she’s abducted by Hades, Lord of the Dead, and taken to the underworld to reign over the souls of the dead.  As Persephone is toured through her new domain she arranges her own rescue, but Hades devises a counter plan to keep her for an eternity.  Based on the classic Greek Myth, this play is a tour of the ancient view of what the underworld looked like.  The play is intended for mature audiences due to violence, and partial nudity.

Lead Velvet Kitten dancer Skye Vega will be making a guest appearance tonight, dancing to the live of music of the local Dallas band Inner Frequency at Poor David’s Pub!  Inner Frequency takes the stage at 9:00 pm.  Poor David’s Pub is located at 1313 S. Lamar St, Dallas TX 75215.
