INSTRUCTOR

LoLo Merlot dabbles in the science of Swarovski by day as a professional gemologist and sparkles on the stage by night as a burlesque performer. She is an instructor at the Ottawa Burlesque Academy, and the director of production for the Ottawa International Burlesque Festival.

She is classically trained in ballet, jazz, contemporary and swing to name a few. Her dance training has refined her expression of art as showcased through burlesque.

Lolo Merlot is a full bodied red with a bouquet of sweet undertones that goes down smooth.
