With over 20 years of experience in the dance world, Ms. Emily Lawson is a passionate educator dedicated to sharing her love of dance. Having long dreamed of running her own studio, she is thrilled to have found a home in Marshfield, MO with her husband, Zac, and their two fur babies Hank and Kida.
Ms. Emily holds multiple teaching certificates from Dance Masters of America in Ballet, Jazz, and Modern dance as well as a minor in dance from Northwest Missouri State University. (GO BEARCATS!) Her extensive background includes traveling throughout the Midwest, where she has taught and collaborated with high school and collegiate dance teams through the Universal Dance Association. She has worked with various dance teams and studios across Missouri, Nebraska, Illinois, and Iowa doing choreography, technique, service projects and much more.
Ms. Emily’s rich experience and enthusiasm make her an exceptional guide for young dancers and movers looking to explore their potential and enjoy the art of movement.

Sam has been teaching dance and tumbling for over 15 years and over that time trained with tumbling gurus such Kelli Pac, Kelly Conway and Sandy Peterson. More on Ms. Sam to come!
Ms. Jasmine has been a tumbling coach with us since the beginning! She started gymnastics when she was in first grade, and fell in love with doing cartwheels and doing the splits! While in high school, Jasmine started as an assistant tumbling coach and continued her training while participating in cheerleading. Jasmine is engaged and plans to get married in 2025. When she’s not tumbling, Jasmine loves to be with her two cats and one dog, drink Dr. Pepper, and visit her favorite place: the beach.
