To promote self-love, body confidence and empower both women and men by motivating owning one’s sensuality, as well as, encouraging freedom of expression through movement and the art of Burlesque. Some attend the academy for themselves, others wish to go on to perform on stage.

The Hot Box Girls Academy of Burlesque teaches the art of seduction in the style of old Hollywood, Broadway and the Vaudeville Orpheum Circuit. An elegant affair of ecclesiastic delights, our Burlesque debutantes will thrill you with gorgeous styles from vintage to modern performances.
