Feedback from my clients and students:

​I was looking to explore burlesque for fun and exercise and to work on my own personal growth. I had taken a class with Jay Siren in the past and reached out to her for some one on one sessions. Working with Jay was everything I hoped for. Jay was patient, kind, enthusiastic, and really motivated to meet all my expectations. Jay made me feel comfortable and through our work opened my eyes to things I had previously not realized. I highly recommend Jay as a teacher, a friend and a mentor. Her Sizzle is contagious!

She’s not only a dynamic and experienced performer; she’s also one of the best dance teachers I’ve ever had. Jay has a remarkable ability to adapt her teaching style to any ability level, making potentially intimidating choreography feel achievable for anyone.

Foundations with Jay has not only given me the foundations of burlesque but the foundations of self love. Jay has fostered an environment where you can move without judgement from not only others but free of self judgement - and for that I will be forever grateful.

With a busy schedule, it becomes harder to squeeze in playful, sexy, self-loving moments. The invitation to try burlesque was, in part, intimidating - I have had no dance training and the thought of moving my body and seeing my body move ‘like that’ in front of others was scary. Jay Siren has a way of putting these fears in the right places and motivating students to GET.DOWN.TO.IT.

Jay is one of the most sincere professionals I’ve ever worked with. Her guidance and resources have helped me in many ways. She creates a learning environment that is safe and empowering, not competitive. Go for it!

...I admit at first I had some hesitations about enrolling in a Burlesque dance class because I don’t have any dance training and my self esteem isn’t the greatest. Despite these limitations, I find myself having a blast each class and leaving feeling great!

I wanted to learn how to be sexy, but I had no idea that I was going to learn how to radically love my own body, take control of my life, and meet the “me” that I had been searching for forever. So please, take a class, but know it WILL change your life. Just be ready for that.

Jay is an inspiring and genuine person, who truly cares about and supports the people she is working with. She has motivated me to push myself and dive in where I otherwise would hesitate.

Jay is an excellent instructor. One of the best qualities she has is being able to adapt her instruction based on your individual goals, whether it is simply to try something new or move forward as a burlesque performer. Jay is extremely supportive and has a positive energy that is contagious. I always left my training session feeling pumped up, energetic, and sexy!

Thank you (Jay Siren) for bringing burlesque into my life! I didn’t realize I needed it so bad until everything started to click into place. You have done wonders for my self-image issues, confidence, and acceptance of me in this present moment <3

Jay quickly put everyone to ease with her dazzling personality. She fully embraced that fun side of sexy and brought it out of each and every one of us, even the shyest ones! Jay’s teaching skills were only topped by her fun, outgoing, and inviting personality. I would highly recommend incorporating her workshops into ANYTHING you can
