couple of producers about performing in their shows. I was very fortunate and given a few opportunities to perform. I took a few classes at the School of Burlesque to learn more about classic moves, the history and stage presence. I gradually developed more acts and recently learned glass walking and human blockhead. My performance style has evolved into a combination of fetish, burlesque, sideshow and performance art. Most of my acts are darker in nature and I have learned to embrace that this is who I am as a performer. On stage I love being edgy, sexy, weird and extreme. I enjoy pushing boundaries, ( including my own) and literally bleed for my art, ( bloodletting is a newer fascination for me ). I feel it is important to be true to one's self onstage and to not be afraid of what anyone thinks. Life is too short and precious of a gift to worry about what society deems appropriate. I think it is best to not give a fuck and strip yourself bare and let your inner freak out!
