About this episode

In today’s episode you will meet Lozita Onsy, an Egyptian auto engineer living and dancing in Germany who has been a dedicated Banter listener for some time. Lozita reached out to me on social media when she was visiting LA, and like you, I was instantly curious about her. So we met up one afternoon at my house for a much anticipated in-person banter.

In our conversation we talk about the various facets of tango and how it plays a different role at different stages of life. Lozita also shared her story about how and why she started tango, as well as how it felt to move to a different country and have to integrate into a whole new community.

So sit back, relax and enjoy the warm company of Lozita Onsy
