Trendsetter: Meet Local Influencer Emily Scott James

Tell me how you got into dance. You started when you were two. Did you love it from the very beginning?. My mom brought me to a ballet class, and all the other girls were in full pink. I refused to wear pink. I said, ‘I’m going in all black.’ And the ballet teacher took me by the hand and brought me out mid-class back to my mom. She said, ‘She’s not ready for this.’ Now, having two-year-old twins myself, I’m like, ‘Are they ready?’ No, they are not ready. We moved back to Rhode Island when I was four, and that’s when I got into dance and fell in love with it.
