Choreographer

Emma is versed in Ballet, Modern, Tango, Flamenco, African, Classical Indian, Folk varieties and Partnering. But her true talent lies in the ability to reveal story and character through movement.  Daughter of a mime, she has dedicated her life to the study and practice of physical expression.
