Student Review

“The Featherstone Follies class is truly something special. An absolutely amazing set of ladies, a wonderful variety of class routines, and shows that are on a completely different level. From the moment you walk in, you feel part of something empowering and inclusive. As someone who suffers from a skin condition, I’ve always been self-conscious about showing my underarms due to scarring. Not once have I felt different, judged, or uncomfortable within the Burlesque with Paris family. The support, understanding, and encouragement are beyond amazing, and because of this, I’ve gone on to perform in two shows — something I never thought I’d have the confidence to do and I’ve absolutely loved every second.

Paris Chantilly is incredible in every sense of the word. Her encouragement, warmth, and unwavering support throughout classes and during the build-up to shows is truly admirable. She has created a safe, empowering space where everyone is celebrated exactly as they are.

I would like to personally thank Paris, the Featherstone Follies ladies, and everyone involved for creating such a welcoming, uplifting, and confidence-boosting environment.

This journey has meant more to me than words can express.”
