Ginger Valentine - Free Burlesque ClassWho am I?

My name is Ginger Valentine and I have over 30 years of combined dance and burlesque experience.

I have won multiple awards, including trophies at the Burlesque Hall of Fame.
I’ve toured globally in the biggest burlesque show in the worldDita Von Teese’s 
Art of the Teese and The Copper Coupe and performed in hundreds of shows coast-to-coast.


But just like you, I had to start somewhere.

And that “somewhere” was confusing to say the least! I struggled with trying to figure out the best route to actually be a burlesque dancer. I didn’t know how to train, what to do, and in general felt very excited, but very overwhelmed.


I wish I’d had someone in my corner to show me the way.

Through my own hard work, successes and failures, I’ve realized all my ambitions and created an adventure-filled, serious showgirl life beyond my wildest dreams.
