Angelo Felipa Trucios

My name is Angelo, Peruvian living in Vancouver island since 2021. I moved here to study a master’s degree in business and fell in love with Victoria so I decided to stay. I currently work as Relationship manager in a bank but in my free time I love to dance, work out and travel.

I decided to join the salsa community because it’s part of my culture. When I was a child, my mom was cooking and dancing salsa in the kitchen. When I grew up, my friends and family were always listening music and dancing so it became part of my lifestyle. Music and dancing makes me feel happy, I feel present and relaxed when I am feeling the beats.

I decided to join the association because I would like to contribute to the community and make dancing part of the lifestyle of people. I do truly believe that dancing and be part of a community can improve your mental health. In addition, feeling that you belong to a group of people who have all the same passion, makes you feel more confident and appreciated. Join us and let’s have a dance.
