For all of you who have ever fancied strutting your stuff in a feather boa, a charity fund-raising dance class may be just the thing for you.

There is to be an afternoon of Burlesque dancing and instruction at the Warehouse Fitness centre, Westmoreland road , on Saturday, July 15, from 1pm.

No experience is needed and basques are optional, but there will be a complimentary glass of fizz and a photo shoot at the end of the session.

The event has been organised by a Miss Isle of Man contestant, Rachel Corlett, who is raising funds for Manx Cancer Help.

Tickets cost £25, and can be booked by calling 210222.
