Embrace Norway 2024 is cancelled!
We're sorry to inform that we had to cancel the 2024 edition of Embrace Norway.
About Embrace Norway
Embrace Norway is an encuentro, now for double-rolers and everyone who is open to dancing in such a relaxed environment. Embrace Norway takes place at Lillehammer in summer. We mix the best ingredients of social tango: a few codes, mixed seating, a social space for relaxation, and great music. Our goal for this tango recipe is for everybody to be included and having a wonderful time. We welcome you to join us and enjoy dancing in close embrace during the long bright summer nights of Norway.
The Team
Sissel Berg is the origin behind Embrace Norway. After attending her first encuentro, she fell in love. Sissel then asked Ketil and Trud if they wanted to join her in making her dream of a Norwegian encuentro become a reality. Together, they created three editions of Embrace Norway before taking a break. In 2019, Sissel arranged the fourth edition together with Per Steinar Kjørstad. Siri Fikstvedt and Tor Pedersen joined the team last year. This years team is continuing with Sissel, and two girls from the local tango community Tango Banco: Anna Lena Albertsen and Ida Korsvoll, who are beginning to appreciate both roles.
