Meet The Teachers

Emma Yocum

Hello! I have been a competitive dance teacher for 11 years but have a total of 17 years of dance experience. I started off by assisting with teaching in high school and haven't stopped since.

I have experience in all styles such as Jazz, Lyrical, Contemporary, Pom, and Hip Hop. I have experience working with all ages and levels, from first-year dancers all the way up to training world-competitive dancers.

My favorite part about being a dance teacher is creating a family like bond with the students and watching them fall in love with the sport the same way I did!

I competed in the All-Star Dance circuit for over 10 years and have 21 years of total dance experience. Dance has always been a huge part of my life, and I'm ready to jump all in at Golden!

I am honored to be a part of your dancers' journey and help them build confidence, friendships, and a love for dance. Most importantly, I will always ensure each dancer feels welcome, encouraged and excited to come to class.

I am really looking forward to my future at Golden and all the amazing memories we are going to make together!
