DJ MUSE: EMMA LEECH

Emma has been dancing 5Rhythms® for over three decades, and teaching for 24 years, having trained with Gabrielle Roth in 2001. Her journey began as a path of self-healing, and has grown into a life devoted to exploring the human spirit through movement. Her work spans communities around the world: from prisons, addiction recovery centers, and youth-at-risk programs in London, to children in the slums of Kolkata, India. Each experience has deepened her understanding of resilience, humanity, and the transformative power of dance.

Emma is among a select few certified to teach Gabrielle Roth’s advanced God, Sex & the Body map, exploring the six masculine and feminine archetypes. She integrates this study with performance, including burlesque and clowning, bringing humour, playfulness, and raw presence into her classes.

Rooted in compassion and creativity, Emma’s teaching transforms movement into art, healing, and self-discovery - inviting everyone fully into their essence.
