Hey Emily (: I'm the girl from Instagram (: I was wondering about burlesque dance! It's always fascinated me because its seems to be a dance style that's quite theatrical which I would enjoy. I love being cheeky and quirky with burlesque. My only issue is my body image isn't the best and I'm not sure if I could pull off the costumes, do you often get much choice in costume? Jemma
I would definitely start looking around for a reputable burlesque academy to start lessons because as much as you might think its easy I believe everyone should take lessons from more experienced performers and it helps so much. I have learnt so much from asking questions, and you would be surprised as most performers encourage newbies and are happy to give information to help you.
Burlesque is really a solo art performance and every decision is made by the performer themselves (unless you are a duo, troupe or group) choreography, costumes, hair, makeup, music is all chosen by yourself as it is your art.
If this scares you, a lot of academy’s offer group lessons that at the end of a course will have a performance night where you can perform and they choose the costume, music and choreograph the routine.
Confidence is a really big thing when you perform because if you aren’t confident it will show on your face. There are so many performers out there with all different shapes and sizes, but the confidence to get up there needs to come from within you. Funny enough I feel most confident when I’m half naked infront of a crowd!
I hope this answered your question! Anything else I’m happy to help with. I’m only new to the game but il try and offer as much knowledge as I know because I know how valuable it is! xx

Again feeling like shit about myself. Why do I torture myself looking at your photos/blog.
What ad where you in?
I did an Ad for Maxima Group Training, As I was one of their trainees and I won Trainee of the Year :) Its playing at Wallis Cinema’s in Adelaide
Lately I have been feeling quite hopeless and like im getting no where. I feel as though Im in a dead end job and my dreams and expectations are too high for my own good. Sure I have great things going on and I know I should be happy with what I have but I cant help but feel like im lacking in more ways than one. Im always jealous of people (mainly girls, attractive girls) that seem to have so much more going for them than me. And jealous about things that I really shouldnt be and know are wrong reasons to be.
I wish I could shake this feeling, but no matter how hard I try it doesnt go away.
Constantly doubting what I have and what I am. Why do I feel like I want things that other girls have when really I probably wouldnt want them if they were given to me?
I'm not the anon - but I also saw it! It was playing at Wallis at Mitcham when I went :)
Awesome! haha It hilarious that people are recognizing its me!
I'm sorry today sucks Emily. Just remember that your mum would want you to be happy, she'd want you to remember the good times and keep a special place in your heart just for her.
Thank you so much <3
Jealous.
