Emily Stratton is an interdisciplinary aerialist and modern dancer who blends movement, performance, and visual arts to create original choreography, films, immersive performances, and specialized classes. Her approach to aerial dance embraces the full range of space—floor, air, and the in-between—bringing a grounded yet expansive quality to her work.

Although her movement training has encompassed a variety of aerial arts, her favorite dance partners include vertical dance/free harness and her own invented apparatus, the Ring Trapeze. Emily finds deep joy in exploration and discovery, and brings that spirit into everything she creates.
