Student Testimonial - Gemma Keene

Bonita is absolutely inspiring and a supportive mentor and teacher. I have been attending her classes over the past two years, and she is just incredible. Through her classes I have learnt so much, not only about the art of Burlesque, but more importantly, about how to unlock the confidence and self-love that we all need.

Student Testimonial - Karolyn Jules

I'll be honest, I was intimidated when I first started Burlesque classes: scared of seeing myself in the mirror, of dancing among beautiful women.. but with Bonita's support and encouragement, I instantly felt part of the Burlesque group. Her courses are much more than just dancing; they're about self-love, encouragement, passion, strength, and most of all support for one another. I have done the Body Confidence class in end of 2016, and started the Intermediate class. I will be continuing the Intermediate class in 2017 and will also be doing other performances with Bonita's help.

The School of Tease has really taught me to embrace who you are and feel confident, both physically and mentally. Oh, and seeing as she's a social media queen, it's nice knowing that you can communicate with her even outside of courses, and she'll always be there for support. So thank you for the opportunities I've had and the many more that will come!

Student Testimonial - Hannah Komatsu

After spending a year under Bonita's guidance I can say I truly feel blessed to know this woman. She has been such a positive role model not just as a performer but as a woman and a leader. I have been struck by her acceptance and commitment of others. The positive messages of living a full and loving life, not just to others but also for yourself. I have seen her commitment to people who are going through hard times, and have experience her caring nature personally. Through her classes I have grown not just as a performer but also in my acceptance of myself and others. Thank you Bonita, I am eternally grateful.

Had a blast today being taught Burlesque Chair Dancing by the lovely Bonita. She is a natural born teacher and so supportive. Her positive body image messages resonate and help push away the insecurities that you might carry. A fun time with fun, sexy moves, lots of laughs and a fabulous time. I highly recommend. I will definitely be signing up to a Bonita class the next time I have an opportunity to. Thank you so much!
