Tuesday, August 20, 2024
About Luciana:
Luciana is regarded around the world as one of the most dynamic and articulate teachers working in tango today. She has trained a number of today's most successful dancers and teachers, and continues to inspire dancers with remarkable insight, energy and clarity.
Luciana has not only danced with many of the best leaders in the world, she is also a great leader herself. Her teaching is superb. In fluent English, she can communicate and demonstrate how to make your dancing better for both leaders and followers.
Luciana's Approach:
Luciana has taught all over the world. Her school, Tango Motivo, is one of the most popular and influential in Buenos Aires. Her approach to learning tango is improvisational, and includes a strong emphasis on technique for followers. She is fun and exuberant, and her workshops consistently sell out.
The Workshop:
7:30-9:00 Spirals for Ochos and Turns
* Multiple Levels: the workshop will be designed to be appropriate for dancers of all levels. We ask that you are familiar with turns.

Bonus Intermediate+ Workshop:
When we have a visiting instructor, we like to arrange a workshop for a small group (10-20) of experienced local dancers. Our goal is to work on the fundamentals at a high level, and to encourage discussions. We encourage you to come with a partner that you'd like to work with. We will not be rotating partners.
6:00-7:15 The Connection Paradox
How to get better power and control with a softer, more dynamic embrace. Add energy and elasticity with more precision, to move your connection to the next level..
