In order to keep the dancers interested and engaged, she tries to build her sets with a variety of layers, rhythms, and styles, all the while asking the fundamental question: “How danceable does this song feel?” She’s excited to share her passion for fun dancey songs with you. Emily Webb Emily never thought she would be a good DJ because she can’t remember the names of artists or songs. Turns out one can DJ a great set without that brain function! Emily loves to send dancers into the flow through her sets. The artistry of ordering songs, creating ebbs and flows, ups and downs, and dancer bliss is what Emily is after. Emily has DJ’ed for Fusion, Tango, and Alt Tango dancers around the country. She is the co-creator of Mission Fusion in San Francisco. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀: Amber Dawn Starting with creative movement classes at age three, Amber Dawn has danced across multiple stages and genres of dance throughout her life. She co-founded the first dance troupe at her high school. Forever learning, Amber has studied technique for years in many styles of movement & dance including: ballet, modern, jazz, belly dance, international ballroom, martial arts, Latin dances, swing dances, fusion, micro-fusion, and more! As a teacher, organizer, and DJ in the SF Bay Area, Amber thrives on creating containers to foster connection through music and movement. Amber has developed her own teaching style where she delivers geeky dance technique and creative experiences in ways that are connection based, playful, and accessible. You can contact her directly at www.neurodawnversity.com www.neurodawnversity.com Emily Webb Emily Webb began her love affair with partner dancing in 1996. Starting out as a Lindy Hopper, through the years she danced through Tango, Salsa, Blues, and finally Fusion dance. Today, Fusion and Tango remain her greatest dance loves. Emily teaches Tango and Fusion across North America, and she is the co-creator of Mission Fusion. While Emily loves to geek out on technique she also believes learning should be experiential and fun! Her classes create a positive environment to explore human relationship, movement and expression in dance partnership. Get ready to play, get geeky, laugh, learn and delve deep into the world of partner dance! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 𝐂𝐨𝐝𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭 Shades San Francisco strives to create a safer space for everyone.
