“I’ve taken workshops, technique and a privates with Yelizaveta. Enthusiastic, supportive, and with great attention to the alignment details to become a great dancer. She is the best resource I have found to not just learn about tango, but to work through the steps to transform your body to really dance tango. She provides no shortcuts because there are none. Instead she is the real deal, a magnificent dancer with the musicality and refined body awareness to ensure that the time you are able to put in is most effectively directed towards a great experience for yourself and your partner.”

“Yelizaveta creates an environment of learning that invokes the Spirit of tango as experienced through the imagination and the senses. Participants are engaged not just as students, but as co-creators and fellow artists of the dance. What I learned about the essence of tango while working with Yelizaveta has made me a better dancer in tango and in life!”

— KATIE ROEDA, PORTLAND, OR

“I highly recommend Yelizaveta’s classes. The movements as well as the explanations, visualization and understanding of how each movement connects to tango movements has been invaluable. I can definitely feel the difference in my body and even though I have a lot to work on, I now have the tools and basic understanding of how my body should engage and move. I believe that any level tanguero(a) can benefit from this instruction. ”
