WHAT DANCERS ARE SAYING...
Emilie's classes offer a one-of-a-kind dynamic experience, enveloping participants in the infectious energy she exudes. The community is exceptional, the classes are creative, energising and infuse me with joy with every experience. I eagerly anticipate more every week. Emilie, you are a gift to the world. Thank you for the unwavering attention and generosity you bring to your classes. Your passion, skills and enthusiasm radiate, and I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to take part in your offerings. ~ Tina
I came in for a drop-in class and loved it so much, I signed up for the full session — that’s how amazing it was! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and full of good energy. The music is always upbeat and perfectly chosen, and the positive vibes make every class incredibly fun and energizing. But what truly makes it special is Emilie. She’s a fantastic dance teacher with a gift for breaking things down and making everyone feel confident. Her energy is infectious, her encouragement is genuine, and she creates a space where everyone feels supported and uplifted. You leave class feeling strong, happy, and totally recharged. I look forward to it every week and can’t recommend it enough! ~ Lisa
Ottawa's Best Dance Teacher for a reason! Yes, Emilie brings the energy. Yes, the classes are tons of fun. Yes, you will enjoy yourself. But what makes Emilie stand head and shoulders above the crowd is just how damn smart she is. It shows in every detail. Her ability to calibrate the difficulty to her audience. The way her warm-ups integrate skills used later in the class. The quality of the choreo. The precision of her feedback. Her impeccable communication skills. Wow. Just wow. ~ Todd
Taking Emilie's dance classes has been an incredible experience for me. She truly embodies joy, and her extensive experience is clear in how she manages each session with such grace and enthusiasm. Emilie has this amazing ability to make everyone feel welcome and comfortable, regardless of their skill level. Her classes are more than just learning dance steps; they're about having fun and moving your body in a way that feels good. Emilie beautifully crafts choreography routines paired with perfectly chosen music, creating an atmosphere that's both invigorating and soothing. I always leave her classes feeling happier and more alive. Emilie's smile and passion for dance make every session something I look forward to. I genuinely enjoy being part of her classes, and I recommend them to anyone I talk to. It's just a great way to spend time, and it brings so much joy into my life. ~ Emely
Where do I start? My experience thus far has surpassed my expectations. Her profile states that her passion for dance is contagious. 100% true. Her ability to tap into the needs and aspirations of each dancer in her classes is remarkable. I’ve always wanted to take dance classes. Her skill set and her positive energy has managed to improve my ability to dance in ways I could never imagine. And her positive energy is contagious as well. Try it out and you won’t regret it! ~ Sarah
Emilie is warm and kind, and as a teacher she encourages dancers to challenge themselves in a supportive and inclusive environment. Despite the uncertainty when the pandemic first emerged, Emilie didn't miss a beat. She adapted her teaching to provide flexible and fun live and recorded videos and online classes. I registered for two adult classes as well as the parent and child class (with my six year old), and the classes were the highlight of our week! The online classes offered some fun challenges and unexpected growth as well - for example, working on memorizing routines without following others, or assessing our timing. Emilie is always available if dancers have questions, and despite physical distancing she encouraged us to connect online so that we still felt that we belong to an inspiring community of dancers. We are so lucky to have access to this wonderful studio! ~ Michelle
Emilie is a fantastic dance instructor. She has an incredible talent for making everybody feel comfortable regardless of their insecurities. She has insane amounts of skill in many dance styles, and her bubbly personality and positive attitude are contagious. I strongly recommend Dance with Emilie. You’re in for a treat! ~ Lyzanne
Emilie is amazing and her classes are a total blast! She really takes the time to help you learn while making sure it’s still a fun and comfortable place to continue to improve. I’ve been a student for over a year and I look forward to going every single week! So good for the soul! Highly recommended, no question about it! ~ Cindy
Emilie's boundless energy and positivity are inspiring. I wanted to try dance because I'd always felt clumsy and uncoordinated. At my first class, I was very anxious. Within weeks, I found myself looking forward to each class. Thanks to Emilie's patient and positive teaching style, my self-confidence improved. I'm happier, more focused and productive at work, and more comfortable in my own skin. I'm extremely grateful to Emilie and the wonderful dance community that she's created. Dancing with Emilie changed my life, and I'll keep dancing as long as I can! ~ Kamila
Amazing teacher and brilliant in so many styles. Her passion for dance, welcoming energy, and knowledge, really make her stand out. Emilie’s classes are so fun and they are a great fit for anyone, regardless if you have dance experience or not. I highly recommend trying out her classes and workshops. I look forward to it each and every week ~ Jasmina
