Emily's dancing
career started at the age of five at South Metro School of Dance

Dance Factory in 1984 where she trained in tap, jazz, ballet,
pointe and lyrical for eight years focusing primarily on tap.
Emily was on both the Jr. and Sr. company teams where she
competed and won numerous awards at national competitions such
as Rising Star, Showstopper, Showbiz and Star Systems. Emily
also performed at several local events and charities such as the
Coca-Cola Oktoberfest, Fayette County Independence Day Parade
and Georgia Power Forum Show. She also won first place several
years in a row performing at the Kiwanis Club talent show in
Fayette County.
Once Emily was in high school, she was on
the dance team where they went each year to the Universal Dance
Association camp. Her freshman year she won the "Universal Dance
Star" award and her team was invited to compete in the national
competition held in Orlando, Florida. Junior year Emily was a
co-captain and helped choreograph dance routines for
performances and competitions.
