CAN-CAN IN CARDIFF!
When: Sunday 27th May 2012 - 1-3pm
Where: Yogafever, 39 Windsor Place, Cardiff, CF10 3BW
Made famous in the cabarets of Paris, the can-can is a perfect blend of excitement, energy and enthusiasm. This playful and spirited dance has been a firm favourite in Paris since the early 19th century and is a perfect blend of excitement, energy and a certain je ne sais quoi. We will teach you many of the time-honoured and globally adored moves, creating a high- (or not so high) kicking, skirt-swishing, whooping extravaganza. We celebrate the traditional French can-can with the well-known spécialités such as the high-kicking battement, the famous can-can chorus line and of course a flash or two of the derrière!
This class will take you on an energetic journey – step by step, kick by kick and wink by wink. So let your inner cancaneuse kick her way forward and start thinking like a skirt-swishing, leg flashing, whooping extravagant. Come create the Cardiff can-can troupe!
With an impressive history of professional can-can dancing, teacher Viva Misadventure has can-canned in Paris cabarets and appeared as a can-can mentor on Gok Wan’s ‘How To Look Good Naked’ television show.
We will provide the essential full frilled skirts for everyone. Remember, you will be kicking and flashing your derrière, so please wear suitable clothes to go underneath your skirt – trousers or big frilly knickers! We recommend you wear supportive dance shoes (trainers or jazz shoes).
Cost: £15, please pay in advance so I can ensure I have enough skirts. Please click on website link for details of how to pay, or email viva@burlesqueandcabaret.com for more information
