RuPaul's Drag Race Star Laganja Estranja teaches dance and confidence in a new documentary. Dancer, choreographer, reality TV star and drag queen Jay Jackson (better known under the stage name Laganja Estranja) hosts a dance work shop in London, England in the new documentary "Laganja's Dance School". Laganja Estranja appeared on season six of the hit TV show "RuPaul's Drag Race", alongside Adore Delano, Courtney Act and Bianca Del Rio; finishing in eighth place. Laganja also appeared on "So You Think you can Dance" as well as the critically acclaimed Netflix series "Dancing Queen" with Alyssa Edwards. In 2016 Jay founded Laganja's Dance School, an international high-heels masterclass and confidence workshop, with creative partner Kristen Lovell. The class includes an extensive warm-up/stretch, across the floor exercises, and a final combination of original choreography. Participants are encouraged to express themselves, gain new skills, and feel amazing in this hip-hop oriented jazz funk atmosphere. The documentary is directed by cult filmmaker Salem Kapsaski (Director of Troma's "Spidarlings") and follows Jay/Laganja as he's sharing stories of his life and is connecting with the students before giving a sickening live performance as Laganja Estranja at the world famous West 5 club. "Laganja's Dance School" offers an intimate peek behind the curtain. Grab your heels and let's get sickening.
