Born and raised in St. Louis, MO, Emily Rockers Bowman began learning the violin using the Suzuki Method at the age of 3. Emily began her studies with Rose Martin at what is now known as the Community School of Webster. Emily attended St. Margaret of Scotland School in the Shaw Neighborhood of St. Louis, MO where she started a Suzuki Violin Program in 2013. The program initially began with only 27 students and grew to over 140 students, ranging in ages 3-14. She also enjoyed teaching General Music to Middle School Students in 6th-8th grades where the focus changed to learning about Music History, Music Theory, and performance on instruments including keyboards, glockenspiels, hand bells, and guitars.

As of June 2020, Emily opened her own private violin studio, Beau Son Strings, LLC. 

She is certified to teach Suzuki Violin Books 1-10. For more information go to her website @ https://emilyrockersbowman.com
