Created by Jo Weldon, this foundational program teaches the art of striptease as emotional architecture: pacing, breath, eye contact, and suspense. You’ll learn how to turn the removal of a glove, scarf, or stocking into a cinematic moment - whether you perform fully clothed or go further. 

The Art of Taking It Off—With Intention, Grace, and Glamour

Striptease isn’t about what you remove.
It’s about what you reveal: confidence, mystery, humor, and the quiet power of owning your presence.

In Striptease for Burlesque, Exotic Dance & Every Day, legendary performer and Headmistress of the New York School of Burlesque, Jo Weldon, transforms the simple act of undressing into a masterclass in theatrical storytelling. Whether you dream of the stage, plan an intimate surprise, or simply want to move through your own life with more flair and fearless self-possession, this program gives you the tools to make every garment—or sweatshirt—part of the performance.


Jo teaches you how to strip with suspense, style, and star quality, whether you’re removing:

  • A wedding gown (dramatic, slow, dripping with symbolism)
  • A business suit (sharp, sly, subversively sensual)
  • Jeans and boots (casual turned captivating)
  • Men’s clothes (playful, androgynous, full of swagger)
  • Or even glasses and earrings—because in burlesque, every detail is a moment

Each routine is part choreography, part improvisation, so you can layer your personality over Jo’s expert framework. She breaks down:

  • The choreography of removal: What to take off first? How to drape it? Where to pause for maximum effect?
  • Body angles and gaze: How to conceal to reveal, how to use stillness like sound
  • Expression & timing: When to smirk, when to smolder, when to let silence speak
  • Costuming logic: How everyday clothes become costumes when worn with intention

Beyond technique, Jo shares cultural context, performance philosophy, and practical wisdom—including how to choose a stage name that resonates with your essence.

This is striptease as ritual, rebellion, and radiant self-expression—not imitation. No experience needed. Just a willingness to lean into your allure, on your terms.

Perfect For:

  • Bachelorette parties
  • Burlesque newcomers crafting their first full act
  • Exotic dancers refining their removal artistry
  • Partners wanting to surprise with intimacy and elegance
  • Anyone ready to trade self-doubt for the kind of glow that comes from owning your power

Because true seduction isn’t in the skin you show—
it’s in the confidence you wear like a second skin.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this appropriate for a bachelorette party or girls' night in?
A: 100% yes! This is a fantastic, empowering bachelorette party activity. Jo Weldon teaches you how to turn everyday items (like a button-down shirt, a scarf, or even the groom's tuxedo) into a fun, hilarious, and confident party trick.

Q: I have two left feet. Can I really learn this?
A: Yes. This program is designed for absolute beginners. It focuses on the "choreography of removal"—pacing, breath, eye contact, and simple body angles—rather than complex dance steps. If you can walk and smile, you can do this.

Q: Is this just for women, or can anyone learn it?
A: The principles of suspense, style, and star quality apply to everyone. The course even includes a playful section on how to strip out of men's clothing (like a suit or jeans) with swagger and humor, making it a great activity for any group.

Q: What makes this different from free YouTube videos?
A: Free videos often focus on flashy, unsafe, or overly sexualized moves. Jo Weldon, Headmistress of the New York School of Burlesque, teaches the authentic, respectful, and theatrical art of striptease, focusing on safety, consent, and genuine self-confidence.
