Emily has been practicing and performing Bellydance for 10 years. It is her main passion. She has studied with Moria Chappell, Ashley Lopez, and Rachel Smith. She has performed at a middle eastern restaurant, festivals, theaters, markets, and clubs. Emily also has studied butoh: a Japanese avant- garde dance which focuses attention on the embodiment of earth. She has experience performing butoh for over 2 years.
Emily is a gifted artist both in technical skill and creative expression. She dances beautifully and cohesively in group choreographies but also delivers striking solos. Her movement is both mesmerizing and entertaining; she has a highly-developed ability to communicate a wide range of feelings and emotions in her performances. She is obviously trained in several distinct dance practices, and can interpret music of any genre. Her varied skill sets create a unique personal fusion that would be fitting for ANY event where art, dance, music, or entertainment is a focus. I can’t wait to witness Emily dance again!
Emily is a wonderful and very talented dancer. She has skills in many different styles of dance. She is punctual and easy to work with. I would recommend her for any event.
Emily is an awe-inspiring, eclectic belly dancer. She infuses differnt genres of dance and music, while savoring in her own beautiful style.
Emily performed in a Halloween Showcase I hosted, and she was nothing short of reliable, dependable, and a great performer. I have known Emily for little over a year and I always enjoy our interactions.
It is my utmost pleasure to STRONGLY ENDORSE & RECOMMEND Emily's artistic services. I have hired her multiple times throughout the years to dance and perform a wide variety of feature-length artistic events, from large-scale stage performances to art gallery installation performances. As a choreographer and artistic director of live performance with a Master's Degree from New York University (NYU)'s highly esteemed TISCH SCHOOL OF THE ARTS, I know high-quality art when I see it and am committed to excellence in creative projects. Emily is a very talented performer, stunning dancer and a hard-working, dedicated artist who gives her very best to the projects she participates in. She is extremely devoted and RELIABLE....hiring her to perform or a be a part of your artistic event would give a boost to any endeavor! I highly recommend Emily!
