Around the same time, Marte was featured on a couple songs on fellow Massachusetts singer Bylli Crayone's 2005 self-titled album, most notably the song "Toyfriend." In 2007 Marte released his second album, Deseos de Amarte, which, similar to its predecessor, spawned a Top Ten tropical airplay hit in the title track and a modest follow-up hit, "Con los Ojos Cerrados.

April 15th, 2010

If you got it, Flaunt it!

Have you ever wondered what it is like to be a Showgirl? Here's your chance.

Burlesque is a humorous theatrical entertainment involving parody and sometimes suggestive exaggeration. In 20th century America, the form became associated with a variety show in which striptease is the chief attraction.

Burlesque Dancing has enjoyed a revival in recent years thanks partly to the success of Dita Von Teese. Women are really reclaiming their sexuality and embracing their natural form.

Thursday evenings (10 week course commencing 15th April)
Open level 7:00pm – 8:00pm

Cost: $280 (10 week course)
20 students max per class
