Luciana Proaño
Peruvian Folk Dance

Luciana Proaño is a Portland based Peruvian dancer and artist dedicated to multidisciplinary and cross-cultural work. Her unique aesthetic style shows that her Peruvian heritage and world travels are blended deeply in her subconscious.

​

Luciana says of her teaching philosophy, “I teach for people to discover something about themselves while enjoying collaboration and community. Mythology fosters open minds in a diverse world where we are a microcosm of that diversity. In the use of archetypes, diversity has convergence.” 

Luciana is part of Young Audience Arts for Learning, a program which brings arts into the schools in Oregon and Southwest Washington.  Kids love her dynamic teaching style and boundless energy.
