Ellouise Hempstead
Dancing has been in my life ever since I was a little girl. It started with ballet and grew into a love of all dance styles.
It's my love of dance and the way it inspires people and motivates them that led me to teaching. I have been teaching in the North East now for over 7years and in that time Etrois was born and it has become my passion.
At Etrois it is our mission to make dance and fitness classes accessible to everyone of all experiences and fitness levels.
I believe that there is a class out there that works for everyone and with the wide variety of fun and unusual classes we offer, I believe you'll find that something for you here at Etrois.
I look forward to helping you discover what dance class works for you.

About:
Burlesque is all about women feeling fabulous about themselves, regardless of age, shape or dancing ability. Taking inspiration from the likes of Dita von Tease, Sally Rand and Immodesty Blaize, our classical burlesque classes give you some tips and tricks to get you embracing the glamour and sex appeal of Burlesque.
Seduction is not dead and buried, in fact it's very much alive and kicking those boundaries down with a very big stiletto heel! Burlesque dancing encourages women to push their own boundaries, which in turn increases their self-esteem and leaves them feeling fabulous.
At Etrois we want to share with you our experience of the stage, and we've tried to do this through our Burlesque Courses in which we offer Beginner, Show and Techniques Levels.
Beginners Burlesque teaches you basic moves, poses and walks, each week of the course looks at a different style of Burlesque and will teach you a different routine each week.
The Show Course gives you a chance to shake your tail feathers on stage with other professional burlesque and cabaret performers at an Etrois show. So if you fancy being a burlesque star for the night, then the Burlesque Show Course is for you.
Our Burlesque Techniques Course is for those who love the art of burlesque and want to learn the techniques of burlesque to create their own burlesque persona. Lessons will concentrate on a different part of the tease each week from how to position your body to how to remove stockings and other garments effortlessly.
Our burlesque courses are fun for women of all ages, shapes and sizes, and will help you to build self confidence, as well as make new friends and learn something new in the process.

About:
A class based on modern, fast paced dance routines from popular artists.
Every 6 week course looks at a new routine. It could be from the best MTV Divas like Beyonce and PCDs, or it could be a routine choreographed by Etrois' founder Ellouise Hempstead.
Whichever it is, BK is a great way to stay fit, learn to dance like your favourite divas do and look sexy in the process. Incorporating cardiovascular movements with the sexiest forms of dance and poise, BK will have you shedding those calories in no time. It's fun, a great way to make new friends, build confidence and keep fit at the same time.
If you love to dance and youd love the chance to perform, then contact us about our BK Flash Mob. Over a 12 week course youll learn one of our BK routines ready for a Flash Mob performance somewhere in Newcastle. Routines and locations change every course.

About:
Everyone thinks that body sculpting went out with leotards, shoulder pads and frizzy perms, but Body Sculpting classes based on the principles that made Callanetics so popular in the 80's are rumoured to be the secret behind Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow's age-defying bodies.
Here at Etrois we've taken principals, like those adopted in Callanetics exercises and produced our own intense, but low impact course that can work for every body. By isolating muscle groups and using tiny, precise (yet powerful) movements, these exercises tighten and reshape your body, while increasing strength, flexibility and body alignment.
