Stripped Down: How Burlesque Led Me Home is about one woman’s journey into deeper levels of acceptance and love of herself through the powerful art form of burlesque. When Anna discovers a vibrant form of self-expression in the most unlikely of places, the rest of her life begins. By saying yes to the messages that lie deep in her heart, the opinions, judgements and fears of others fall away as her unexpected path emerges.

“A wonderful and thought provoking read! Whether you love burlesque, dislike it or are unsure of what it even is the author takes you with her on a beautiful journey into learning to love herself and thereby yourself. I gave my copy to my teenage daughter after my second read; I can only hope she takes away half of what the book gifted me! Highly recommended!”
