Celebrating 2 Years of Hull Harlots

Hull Harlots Two Fabulous Years Of Dance And Laughter

Welcome to Hull Harlots, where we proudly celebrate two fabulous years of dance, laughter, and empowerment through burlesque. As we mark this special second anniversary, it is the perfect moment to reflect on the incredible journey we have shared as a community. From learning new routines in class to stepping confidently onto the stage, the past year has been filled with growth, creativity, and unforgettable memories.

Term 3 - Smash

A Year Of Dazzling Burlesque Routines

Over the past twelve months, Hull Harlots have immersed themselves in the vibrant and expressive world of burlesque, exploring a wide range of styles that have challenged, inspired, and empowered every dancer. Each term introduced a new focus, allowing confidence, skill, and stage presence to flourish.

Term 4 - S&M

The year began with Term 1 Classic Burlesque, where dancers embraced elegance and timeless tease through I Just Want To Make Love To You, mastering gloves and boas while building strong foundations in control and character. Energy intensified in Term 2 Bump and Grind Burlesque with Fire In My Head, incorporating gloves and capes to explore sultry movement and bold musicality.

In Term 3 Feather Fan Burlesque, the Harlots performed Smash using ostrich fans, learning precision, drama, and the striking visual impact of fan work. Confidence continued to grow in Term 4 Neo Burlesque, as the class pushed boundaries with S&M, embracing attitude, storytelling, and unapologetic self expression.

The latter half of the year brought theatrical flair with Term 5 Broadway Burlesque, dancing to All That Jazz with trilby hats and fringe skirts, blending musical theatre style with burlesque charm. Term 6 Broadway Burlesque followed with Hey Big Spender, performed without props, allowing dancers to focus purely on character, confidence, and commanding the stage through movement alone.

The year concluded with festive glamour in Term 7 Showgirl Burlesque, where the class delivered a show stopping performance of Santa Baby, again without props, showcasing just how far their technique, confidence, and stage presence had evolved.

Throughout the year, Hull Harlots have not only learned choreography but have fully embodied the spirit of burlesque, fostering creativity, self expression, and a strong sense of camaraderie that continues to define the group.
