BURLESQUE DANCER: WANTS TO EMPOWER SELF, WOMEN THROUGH DANCE

Body positivity her goal BRENDEN RUITER @ruitervaniewind

M

any women are struggling to make peace with their bodies, but Melanie Scheepers, a burlesque dancer from Ruyterwacht, has won that battle. Scheepers, also known as Diamond Dutchess, says she went through hell to reach this level of peace. “As a whole I represent body positivity and women equality and freedom. To me, a confident woman is happy within, exuding vibrancy, passion and com-

passion through expression. I had a bad relationship with my body in a sense of self body harm. “Every day it was a struggle, but I have decided, with lots of thought and love, that I am claiming my body back. I then discovered the love for dance again, through burlesque,” says Scheepers. Dance was part of her life since a young age. “My burning desire to dance started at a very young age. Ballet was my first dance love which I started in primary school. I later transitioned to Latin American dance. In that time period, as I continued to paint my

path in life, dance was unfortunately one passion I could not pursue because of my struggles with a low self esteem,” she says. She admits that people still judge her because of her career choice. “I do burlesque and I do it for the love of dance and the empowering message it comes with. Burlesque is a combination of performance art and striptease, elegance and class. Through my expression of my love to dance I strive to empower women. Personally I feel that instead of pushing each other down we should uplift, motivate, show love, appreciation and kind-

ness for others and ourselves. Unfortunately, burlesque has been stigmatised and I am being judged by the broader society that does not understand the story behind this type of performance art. The patriarchal society is a problem. “Through my dance I too would like to educate society and contribute to breaking these damaging norms. Burlesque allows one to be sensual, sultry and proudly woman, however this has been an ongoing issue in society. V To page 3
