Chicago Burlesque Classes
Unleash Your Power. Embody Your Pleasure. Step Into the Spotlight.
This is where confidence begins and performance becomes personal. Red Hot Annie’s burlesque experiences in Chicago are designed for women who want more—more magnetism, more presence, more connection to their own radiant essence.
Whether you’re a beginner searching for “burlesque classes near me” or a creative powerhouse craving refined coaching, your next transformation begins here.

This is not a fitness class. It’s a feminine rite of passage.
These classes welcome every curve, every mood, every edge of who you are. They are safe, bold, body-honoring containers where nervous system healing meets high-glam movement.
You don’t need to be a dancer. You just need to be willing to show up as the woman you were always meant to be.
