Épicus is a story of introspection, essential in Lupi’s life, an endless search unhindered by self-demandingness, even in existing choreographies, the power of eternal modification, personal and artistic relief with the added collusion of the artists who accompany her and of the public as well. What is the cause for this change? Where did she find the necessary strength to get started? The highs and lows of a destiny scarred by immortal love of Dance.

After finishing with distinction a degree in Dance at the Higher Conservatory of Dance of Malaga, her hometown, and after her first steps as an artist, flamenco dancer and choreographer Susana Lupiáñez 'La Lupi' set up her artistic group in 1999, choreographing and taking the leading role in shows which participated in the most important national and international festivals. She collaborated with the National Ballet of Spain in Zaguán, a three-year tour with Miguel Poveda to launch his album arteSano; she recorded the dvd El arte por delante at the Tablao Flamenco [flamenco show venue] Corral de la Morería and participated in the ceremony of the 2010 Max Awards of Performing Arts interpreting Antonia Mercé 'La Argentina'.
Her most important shows are Retorno, Cartas a Pastora (tribute to Pastora Imperio), La Paula, Lenguaje oculto, Mudanza and Épicus.
She is the winner of the First and Second 2007 National Flamenco Dance Awards at La Perla in Cádiz. At present she alternates tours and training courses all over the world.
