Over
Since the age of 3 Emily has had a keen passion for dance and movement. She attended numerous Performing Arts Schools where she undertook British Theatre Dance Association examinations in Tap, Ballet, Modern, Acrobatics and Jazz. Emily both competed and performed on stage from a young age.

When attending Bishop Walsh Catholic Secondary School Emily went on to study Contemporary Dance at both GCSE and A-Level where she achieved A*. As a result Emily was encouraged to take peruse her dance studies further, she studied a 3 year degree in Dance at DeMontfort University.

After leaving University Emily went on to teach all different styles of dance to children of all ages in Schools within Birmingham, this allowed her to gain further knowledge and experience about the structure of Physical Education lessons and how important it was for Children to have the time and space to express themselves creatively. After a year and half of teaching in Schools Emily became interested in how an individual's wellbeing could be impacted by movement, both physically and psychologically.

This Interest lead her to begin a 2 year Masters course in Dance Movement Psychotherapy at the

University of Derby. During this time Emily developed a fascination in working alongside individuals with additional needs, she understood that Dance and Movement was another language in its own right. With this in mind Emily began to research further into this notion, she sought placements in a Special Needs School, Elderly Care Home and early years Dance classes. Emily is a registered Dance Therapist with ADMP.

In early 2018 Emily founded Dance4U, offering children and adults with and without additional needs Dance lessons and Dance therapy sessions across the globe.

These are the classes I can offer:

1. Introduction to contemporary dance and improvisation
With this workshop introduction to contemporary dance, we invite people without dance experience to taste improvisation. Dancers use different techniques to create movements. One of them is improvisation: the process of spontaneous movements, shaped by exercises that work on the imagination and empathy. The desired result of the workshop is that the participants make a connection between emotions and movement.

2. Dance classes for seniors
The first part of the lesson is warming up on the chair. Inspiration drawn from gyrokinesis, a form of movement that increases spinal mobility. In combination with Pilates-based exercises for muscle activation, we prepare the body with an approach that is suitable for everyone.
In the second part, the exercises continue standing with a body scan. The exercises explore every part of the body using weight, dynamics and movement qualities. The end result is the involvement of the whole body playing with rhythms and patterns in space.
The class is designed for creativity, individuality and vitality maintenance.

3. “Connect-id flow” - Contemporary dance lessons
In the “Connect-id flow” class, the essence is to neutralize excess energy so that the dancer moves effortlessly through space. The organic sequence of movements that make up the exercises focuses on weight distribution and the movement of the spine. The accumulated kinetic energy guides our body forward in the exercises; it stimulates the continuation and relaxation of the body parts.
During the warm-up, which consists of floor work, information is shared about the correct use of the limbs. As well as the importance of grounding the body to achieve softness and continuity during the execution of the movements. Once we have prepared the body, the intensity of the class builds. The weight navigates the body through space and spirals introduce more complex movements. Ultimately, the goal of the lesson is to build strength, find a smooth flow of movement and a better knowledge of the energy distribution while dancing.
