Alicia's goal is to empower her students to dance relaxed and confidently. She emphasizes the fundamental elements of Argentine Tango dancing: the music; posture, the walk; the embrace; the connection and navigation on the dance floor.
Tango music has been part of Alicia's life since she was born (her parents met dancing "Nostalgias" and she remembers dancing as a small child in the arms of her father). After taking tango classes and attending a few milongas in California in the late 90s, she became an avid tanguera. She has been involved with tango activities in Bend since 2003.
