Lucia Tozzi

Lucia Tozzi was born and raised in New York City and started her dance training with National Dance Institute under the tutelage of Jacques d’Amboise. She continued her training at Frank Sinatra School of the Arts in Astoria, Queens (NY), and at The Ailey School. In 2020 she graduated with a BFA in Dance from SUNY Purchase. During her time at Purchase, Lucia performed works by Pina Bausch, Ohad Naharin, Joseph Hernandez, Luke Murphy, and others. In 2019 she studied abroad at the Beijing Dance Academy in China, training in contemporary dance forms and composition. She supplemented her training with courses through B12 Berlin, Tanztheatre Wuppertal Pina Bausch, Vim Vigor Dance, and Gallim Dance. While based in New York City, Lucia performed with artists Alison Clancy, Michelle Thompson Ulerich, the Headlights Theater Collective, and Caitlin Javech. As a choreographer, Lucia has been commissioned to present work at Arts on Site, Dixon Place, Frank Sinatra School of the Arts, as well as for the NW Dance Project's In Good Company shows. Lucia joined NW Dance Project in 2023 and has since danced original roles in new works from Joseph Hernandez, Ihsan Rustem, Bryan Arias, Sarah Slipper, Serge Bennathan, Carla Mann, Nicole von Arx, and Gustavo Ramírez Sansano. Lucia is thrilled to perform and collaborate with all the amazing artists involved with NW Dance Project.
