Not only is Keda Breeze a highly skilled performer, she is also an expert tutor of burlesque, and four times each year there is an opportunity to lean burlesque with her at one of her fun filled and inspirational workshops in Bristol

Keda is very passionate about building women’s confidence and abilities through burlesque dance, and is wonderful at getting her students to achieve far more than they ever dreamed was possible, whilst having a whole lot of fun in the process.

As people travel from so far afield to train with her (from across the UK and as far away as Spain), she crams in as much as possible to get you up and running as a burlesque starlet in the day.

“I really enjoyed the day. It was exciting and glamorous and gave a good comprehensive introduction to all aspects of burlesque. I particularly enjoyed the work on choreographic strategies and performance techniques. I have been a professional dancer in the past and had a dance training, but haven’t done a lot of serious dancing for a number of years due to having children… There was a nice friendly atmosphere and it was great to do some serious dance work in a nice supportive group of ladies! Thanks Keda X”
