Emma Branson began dancing at Tri-Cities Academy of Ballet in Richland, Washington under the direction of Debra Pearse Rogo. From a very early age, Emma was exposed to many dance styles such as ballet, contemporary, modern techniques, jazz, tap, and musical theater which shaped her into the versatile dancer she is today. Emma has also had consistent vocal training over the years. Augmenting her dance education, Emma attended summer dance intensives such as the Jacob’s Pillow Contemporary Program, Complexions Contemporary Ballet, Paul Taylor Dance Company, Broadway Artists Alliance, American Ballet Theater, and The Juilliard School. Emma is a graduate of the Boston Conservatory at Berklee on scholarship where she earned her B.F.A in Contemporary Dance Performance as well as represented as the Wendy McCain Dance Scholar Recipient. While finishing her studies during her senior year, Emma was an apprentice with Complexions Contemporary Ballet where she performed Dwight Rhoden’s works all over the U.S. and Europe. Emma has worked in choreographic residencies with and performed works by Dwight Rhoden, Helen Pickett, Francesca Harper, Maleek Washington, Margo Sappington, Rex Wheeler, Daniel Pelzig, and more. Pursuing her passion for musical theater, Emma recently completed touring with the First National Tour of The Cher Show directed by Casey Hushion and choreographed by Antoinette DiPietropolo. Emma was cast in Female Ensemble as well as played the featured dance role of Dark Lady.
