Helping elevate your performance by inspiring students and creating confident dancers!
I’ve been dancing my whole life, and it is my passion! I work for On the Move Dance Studio and the Universal Cheerleading Association as well as local schools to pursue my passion of teaching others and helping those who want to become better dancers. I offer Tap, Jazz, Lyrical, Musical Theatre, and Cheer dance styles. Everyone can dance, and I want to help students become more confident in their bodies and strengthen their skills as movers. With consistent practice and understanding what level you’re at, I want to fully realize the potential within each individual. But I don’t settle for less. I push all of the kids I work with and challenge them to be their best. I believe there is so much room for growth in every person, and with the right amount of work and encouragement they can accomplish anything. I set high standards and my students always meet them!

Testimonials
I’ve been so lucky to be taught by Emma Stansberry in Midlothian High School’s Theatre Program for the past three years. She has such a gift for teaching, introducing us to so many different dance styles. She always finds ways to help every dancer, no matter their level, feel confidence or capability. Ms. Stansberry teaches with patience, clarity, and genuine care, but she also knows how to challenge us to grow and reach our full potential. I’ve grown so much as a dancer because of her, and I’m so grateful to have had her as my dance director. She’s truly been a joy to learn from!
— DanikaI loved my time working in the studio with Emma! Not only is she a great choreographer, but she truly cares about her students’ experience as a whole. As her classroom assistant, I saw how she takes the time to involve every level of ability and is always ready to make the best routine for the students. She’s the best!

She brings an energy to the workspace that makes you want to challenge yourself and put your best foot forward. From her unique flair to her movements and to her mind-boggling formations, she is a force to be reckoned with in the choreography world!

For the past three years, Emma Jeanne has been an incredible asset to my cheer team as a choreographer and camp instructor. She not only choreographed every routine we’ve performed, but also taught and led our cheer camp, setting the tone for our entire season. Emma consistently brought creativity, innovation, and fun to everything she did. Her routines seamlessly incorporated dance, tumbling, and stunts in ways that highlighted my team member’s strengths. Every performance was original, exciting, and specifically tailored to fit our team’s unique style and personality. She was always punctual, professional, and fully invested in creating the best possible experience for our athletes. Her energy and passion are contagious, and she made every practice and camp session something the team looked forward to.
Ihave absolutely loved every routine Emma has choreographed and taught for us. Her work has truly elevated our program, and I can’t recommend her highly enough!
