Edinburgh Embrace Class with Lucia Ohyama Milonga with DJ Mike Quickfall

Lucia Ohyama was born and raised in Argentina. She is a tango dancer, teacher, and producer with more than two decades of experience on stages and in artistic projects at both national and international levels. Lucia has worked as a performer in companies, festivals, and training programs.

Throughout her career, she has developed a view of tango as a living language in constant transformation. Her work focuses on connection, listening and presence, understanding tango as a tool for encountering one’s own body, emotions, and others, as well as a space for exchange and personal and collective growth.

The theme of our class with Lucia will focus on “The importance of the embrace in dance technique “ and will include sequences to explore the theme.

The class (7-8pm) will be followed with our usual relaxed, friendly milonga (8-11pm) with music maestro Mike Quickfall as our DJ for the evening! There is a cash/card bar. Please use the bar as licensing laws prohibit the consumption of alcohol from elsewhere. Tea, coffee and homemade snacks will be available.
