While working within the classical vocabulary, LeCrone incorporates pedestrian movements that are strikingly tender. The steps look like ballet, but they're less formal, more rugged and athletic and her dancers are certainly not afraid of the floor.

Intense movements with silent yet intimate exchanges between dancers are emblematic of LeCrone's choreographic style. {{r|Mainwaring}}

Brian Seibert of The New York Times has written about her work "Emery LeCrone is a skilled and sophisticated choreographer who is attentive to music and musical form. Mostly abstaining from easy sensationalism, she is laudably committed to the harder task of making dance work as dance, almost solely through abstraction rather than narrative.{{r|Seibert}} He elaborates "Ms. LeCrone’s divergences from classical ballet are all in the direction of increasing a ribbonlike flow — blending in the rolling floor contact of contemporary dance and braiding sections with adroit overlapping. {{r|Seibert}}
