Wiggle your way into the weekend with a ‘Wiggle For Wellness’ Brunch Experience at Mortimer House!
Wiggle For Wellness is a Female Empowerment and Well Being concept inspired by the art of Burlesque. Presented by U.K expert Miss Polly Rae, it is time to “shake what your Mama gave ya!” with one fabulous hour of wiggles, giggles, shimmies and fun, all combined together to leave you feeling inspired, energised, exhilarated and full of joy. A class designed for the mind, body and soul aimed at helping you get active, build self-esteem and confidence and create a strong, positive body image.
“I believe that EVERY woman deserves to feel great about themselves. What you are and what you have right now is perfect and beautiful. Because it’s YOU. With a delicate and approachable method, I encourage you to embrace your body, your power, your sensuality and your ability to love yourself through movement and verbal coaching.” Miss Polly Rae
Burlesque is an artform that dates back to the late 18th Century. Traditionally Female – led it has evolved many times over the years and is now widely enjoyed by many as a celebration of the female form and as a gateway to self-confidence and self-love.
“I have been a leading artist and teacher in the Burlesque world for over 14 years. I have always found the greatest pleasure in witnessing the impact my classes have had on the 100’s of students that have come my way. I love to help Women discover themselves in ways that they haven’t before.”
The session will begin with a brief introduction to Burlesque and how it can be used to connect with your femininity and self-confidence. You will then learn a collection of dance movements. You'll be wiggle, jiggle, shimmy and strut the time away, all behind a carefully selected sassy sound track. Once you have mastered the moves we will combine them into a routine for you to remember and practice at home, complete with the class playlist!
No experience or special ability necessary, as long as you identify as female and you are over 16, this is a class for you!
After guests have had their wiggle they will dine in the intimate surrounds of the Mortimer House Living Room and Den on the delicious bottomless brunch buffet. The hearty, healthy and diverse menu includes dishes Spinach Shakshuka with Hen Egg, Charcoal Cauliflower with Greek Yoghurt and Za’atar and for a sweet treat, French Toast topped with Wild Berries and Maple Syrup. All of which are complemented by wholesome smoothies or bubbles and Bloody Mary’s for those who want something a little stronger after all the Shimmies.
