Emily Galzerano

Patient Care Coordinator

A lifelong dancer, Emily spent ten years as a competitive performer in Northern Virginia, training up to 45 hours per week. Her journey took an unexpected turn when she underwent arthroscopic labrum repair before her senior year of high school, leading to six months of physical therapy—a pivotal experience that deepened her understanding of dancer wellness and injury prevention.

After earning her B.S. in Public Relations from Virginia Commonwealth University, Emily moved to New York City, where she built a career in social media and marketing, working with major brands in healthcare, beauty, and entertainment. Despite her professional pivot, her passion for dance never faded, and after five years, she returned to Virginia to reconnect with the competitive dance world as a teacher.

Now, as both a patient care coordinator and dedicated dance educator, Emily is passionate about supporting dancer longevity, career sustainability, and overall wellness. She thrives on guiding young dancers not just through technique and artistry but also through the realities of maintaining a healthy body for a lasting career. With her sharp organizational skills, marketing expertise, and deep love for the art, she’s committed to making a meaningful impact both in the studio and beyond.
