Hailing from New Orleans, Big Freedia; Bounce’s queen Diva who was featured in out Men We Love issue; is spreading the buzz about Bounce (a sexed-up, booty-shaking based, call and response style of hip-hop) by playing shows all over the country and demanding that folks shake it until they can’t stand up anymore. If you’re in the New York City area and you’ve been to any of these performances, gotten totally pumped about Bouncing, but felt a little self conscious about technique; the New York School of Burlesque might be able to help you out. NYSB will be hosting Bounce classes taught by Lady Buissness and Ms. Spoke on May 15 and May 22, 2011. Both days are Sundays. You’ll find them at 440 Lafayette Studios, Studio 4C, Greenwich Village, 10003, and classes take place from 6pm to 8pm. If you’re looking for a space to totally let loose, feel super hot and empowered, and have heaps of fun, I suggest checking this out. Don’t forget to pre-register from the NYSB website.
