Tasteful dancing

As a Friday night, had waited few weeks for this performance and was excited to go out with the girlies. We decided to go to the Hurly Burly Show, it had been produced by a guy who did Kylie Minogue's shows. 

Polly Rae the main act and burlesque dancer was really funny, amazing and sung live. The guy who was singing Spencer Day, at first I thought he was one of the contestants who was in the Final from X factor, but he's American, so strikes it out. Good singing but he's a crap dancer!

Of course Burlesque is a bit of a of a strip tease, but it's tasteful, glamourous clothing, and contemporary, mixing modern songs with a bit of sexual innuendo in a humorous way. 

I will admit there were some pretty hot scenes in the show, I was very impressed with the act when they performed to "lets get physical" on gym balls under UV light. 

There were a few moments I found was funny was when Polly Rae made everyone join in, stand up and dancing, my friends and I looked around and realised, there was a lot of men around!  Then there was the last scene where Polly was dancing away then one of her boobie tassels slipped off, she had such a "ah who cares" look and carried on performing, very professional and I suppose she had problems like that many times!

Overall the Burlesque show was a very fun night out, it's great to see the women were curvy and not stick think models, tickets being on special offer of £20 can't complain, so yeah the women were baring very little but it's burlesque for you!    

I'd recommend people expanding their mind an dip in to a different world of performance!

Zumba Zumba

For the past month a friend suggested I joined her to do some zumba dancing over in Covent Garden. I thought why not give it a try, I didn't know what kind of dancing it was, all I knew was it was a good way to keep fit and was dancing.

Of course after trying the first session over at Guanbara, the Venue that does Zumba every Tuesday, I got hooked! It's such a fun dance to do and keeps you really fit. Unlike the gym where there's the same old things to do, Zumba is many different forms of Latin American dancing, up beat tempo and slow movements

I am really enjoying doing this and it's a good way to keep fit and tone up, I'm amazed that there's always quite a turn out for the classes, not surprised, as 45min class for £5, cheaper that total of spending £10 a pop in Pineapple

I do really love the music as well good to dance to, and it's for everybody at any level to try out. I managed to convince two of my other mates to join me as well! Will have to admit, makes you sweat quite a bit - no pain no gain I suppose!

Annoying bit of Zumba I have trouble with that chest movement and sometimes the hip shaking! hahaha!!
