Mentoring and Workshops

 

Emily leading the workshop “From Stage to Page: Translating dance into the written word” in Prague for Czech Dance News, March 2023

Emily is passionate about sharing her practice and experiences through teaching and leading workshops. Since 2024, she has been a mentor on Resolution Review, a dance criticism scheme running alongside Resolution Festival at The Place, London, and Springback Academy, an annual review writing course alongside Aerowaves’ Springforward Festival.

A special thanks to my mentor Emily, whose wise and gentle guidance made these overwhelming days not just bearable, but transformative.
— Maria Chiara de Nobili, participant in Springback Academy 2025

Emily has also given guest lectures on dance writing and criticism for ArtEZ, Amsterdam University of the Arts, Bratislava Academy of Performing Arts, and Czech Dance News.
