Emily Dyson received her BFA in Ballet Pedagogy from the University of Oklahoma, where she performed with Oklahoma Festival Ballet and Contemporary Dance Oklahoma. She began her ballet training in Houston, TX with Gilbert Rome and Victoria Vittum and was later inspired by Austin Hartel to study modern. She has had the opportunity to train with several companies such as The Washington School of Ballet and Paul Taylor Dance Company and learn from many iconic teachers, including Clara Cravey, Steve Brule, Jeremy Lindberg and Rebecca Herrin. Emily enjoys teaching around the city and passing forward her love of dance to students of all ages. She wants to thank her parents, David and Dawna, for helping to make her dream come true and for always being her biggest cheerleaders. Emily dedicates this season to them. The 2022-23 season is Emily’s 12th with Dance Kaleidoscope.
