Born and raised in Salvador Bahia, Tania is a rich source of cultural tradition, movement and expression on the dance floor. Her spontaneity in choreographing is infused with a deep understanding of cultural heritage, years of experience as a proficient teacher and as a performer with the likes of Olodum and many others. Tania brings all of this to the floor mixed with modern influence. Suggested attire: comfortable clothing that you can easily move in (e.g. tank tops, t-shirts, shorts, sweats, yoga pants). Class is danced in bare feet.
