Roll up for cocktails and cabaret at Riding Room, Glasgow's home of all things raucous and rambunctious.

Description
The clam shell is pretty and all but how do you take your fan dancing to the next level? After a quick review of the basics we dive into the mechanics of how to build dynamic movement utilizing several fan based props. Bessie will use her skills as an Engineer and Yoga trainer to teach planes, movement and ways to increase upper body mobility for dynamic, complex fan work.
Please wear something comfortable that you can move in and steer clear of things that fit tightly or are bulky around your shoulders and elbows. If you wear shoes when performing bring them but they are not required. Bring any fan based prop: traditional feather fans, boa fans, silk fans, fairy wings, etc. If you don’t have something to practice with no problem! There will still be plenty to learn.
