Burn Slow: A Performance Workshop

Class Description

Discover what it means to make ‘em wait for it. How do you draw your audience in? Build tension? Satisfy that tension or leave them thirsting for more? In this workshop, you will receive personalized feedback from your instructor in an intimate cohort of no more than ten peers and delve into the connection between sensual embodiment and deep musicality. You will learn a sequence of movements, and then have space to play with the sequence to different music and with freestyle prompts. Beginners welcome! Heels optional. Dubbed the Patron Taint of Multiple Orgasms, Brooklyn-bred bombshell Queerly Femmetastic is a nerdy connoisseur of Blackness. Her pronouns are she, her, and ma’am. Queerly is an award winning international burley babe inspired by Black shake dancers, strippers, and hoochie-coochie girls across generations. She loves the smell of books, practicing sneaky splits, and the feeling of your money on her skin. Queerly Femmetastic is specifically equipped to support movers in navigating: -injury -various levels of strength and/or flexibility -joint pain, sensitivity, or weakness -visual impairment -sensory overload -gender non-conformity -body abundance We will do this through: -modifying tempo and pathway -using the environment and/or props -developing the practice of partnering ourselves -finding YOUR sexy through embodiment and sensual pleasure -looking at “roadblocks” through a strength assessment lens About Us: Drenched 110 years of charm, Metropolitan Studios Arts & Movement Community is an affordable creative space in the heart of Atlanta’s East Atlanta Village.
