About:

Genesis of cincOH:

"OH" in Korean has a few meanings: a popular family name (my family name), the number five, among other things. Hence "cinco + OH" to signifies five decades I lived on this planet, my five organizing principles (Care, Community, Compassion, Dedication, & Integration), the five most important aspects of Tango to me (Music/Musicality, Ambience/Vibe in the room, Connection: both physical & emotional, Care/Respect for my partners & the ronda, and Finding Joy in every tanda), and finally the very first cincOH (2023) was the fifth large scale tango event I organized (*cincOH 4th edition will be my 9th event overall).​

My vision for cincOH going forward:

cincOH is a semiannual traveling event only by invitation (by recommendations from you as well as my personal connections) which will be capped at 180-250 people (role balanced including/emphasis on switch dancers). The event typically includes some type of non-dancing elements whether it be community forum, lectures, and/or group activity. It also often include philanthropy/fundraising aspect for selected causes. In a nutshell, the goal is to create a meaningful and fun events in which attendees fell safe and cared for.

This edition will be a collaboration with La Maravilla Milonga of Chicago (Hosts: Khoi & Rachel).With our shared principles, we strive to create a meaningful gathering that is thoughtful, relaxed and safe for all attending.
