Loved Up

All of our students are diverse and incredibly beautiful individuals. Watching their confidence flourish as they enter the wonderful world of Burlesque, Pole and Aerial has inspired us to create the first edition to the "We are Sirens" campaign. This project aimed to recognise body unconformity, racial and gender diversity and new found self assurance. We are excited to share the experiences and inspiring words of these individuals to encourage others everywhere to join our community and celebrate the amazing physical and psychological feats everybody has the opportunity to achieve with perseverance. With over one hundred students dancing at our studio each week, every person is stunningly different and embodies every quality of being a Siren.

Loving yourself celebrates your internal and external beauty, which promotes a wholistic sense of self identity. Truly knowing and respecting yourself gives you freedom unlike anything you’ve experienced before. Embracing self-love and body confidence is a challenging process for many of us, especially when we are faced with life’s obstacles. Burlesque, Pole Dance & Aerial take the focus off our body’s aesthetic and onto the wonderful things our body can do. As a result, our mental health improves and we feel comfortable in our own skin. We are free to follow our dreams, we are beautiful and we are Sirens.
