Her years of work studying with the older Tango masters, then with Gustavo Naveira and Fabian Salas' "Tango Investigation" group has made her well versed in both traditional modern aspects of dancing, understanding and teaching the Tango. She has partnered with many of the world's elite tangueros including Omar Vega, Fabian Salas, and Chicho Frumboli. She leads, follows and teaches as a master, bringing her exuberance and attention to detail to every class and to every student. Her gift for description and imagery make it easier for students to understand and retain the ideas and movements that she teaches. Luciana is highly regarded across the US, and has a dedicated and passionate following in communities that she visits regularly. We're excited to have her back for her second visit to the Triangle! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
