Emily Choreographed a surprise dance for my wedding. I can honestly say she’s the most amazing and patient instructor. She had 10 of bridesmaids and myself to train (most of us had 2 left feet) but you would never know it seeing the performance. Thank you for your great work Emily!! Now, onto belly dance classes, ready to learn your Shakira moves! #myhipsdontlie
