Emily @ [email protected] Here is what some people have to say about Emily and Ben's last workshop:Emily and Ben are beautiful dancers and teach wonderfully together! Their focus on body mechanics is so helpful for executing moves correctly, safely, and enjoyably. I will definitely be coming to more of their workshops!Maggie, SFEmily and Ben are fabulous teachers together. Their focus on body mechanics for lifts is a wonderful approach and they move at a great pace to make everything approachable while never being boring.Lacey, SFEmily and Ben are magnificent together. They have an fantastic connection, and their dancing and teaching styles complement each other wonderfully. They have an incredible ability to make complicated topics feel accessible. I also deeply appreciate how they make sure to focus on safety and mechanics first, yet still include aesthetics and variety for those that are picking up the material quickly. And on top of all that, they manage to pack in a ton of material, all of which builds on earlier pieces beautifully well. I look forward to all their new workshops! Benji, SFAbout Emily WebbIn 1996 Emily Webb began her love affair with partner dance. Through the years Emily has studied Tango, Swing, Salsa, Blues, and Fusion dance with some the top instructors in the world. Today Tango and Fusion remain Emily's greatest dance loves. Thousands of students across the US and Canada have benefited from Emily's dynamic and interactive teaching style.
