My dance&music affection comes from my very childhood years. I had been born into musician family where grandfather playing accordeon, father drummer rapping out rhythms on all possible pieces of furniture and mother choreographer taking me to work belonged to my daily routine. For some time i hadn’t had other choice than to like it ;) but then I found myself surprised how much it imprinted on me – while being at university I hadn’t clearly known what I had been actually doing more: studying german or dancing? And then it all happened: 5 years at Lodz Jazz Theatre, choreographical course with contemporary dance specialisation, Lodz Physical Dance Theatre and spontaneous contact improvisation festivals at Ibiza…where I’d also got in touch with tango. From that point on my life has started being a constant search for tango experiences, eventually including moving to Berlin.
And here I am now, living my dreams, as dancer, teacher and tdj.
What keeps drawing me to tango again and again is the nonverbal communication, intensity and harmony of connection you would hardly find in any other dance. When teaching I focus on expending body awareness, encouraging people to breathe, feel their bodies as well as going beyond their movement patterns. Being enthusiast of active following concept I pay much attention to expression and sense of musicality also as follower’s skill.
Welcome to Lamalisa Tango sales outlet (Mala Junta ---> RAUM2)
Lamalisa Tango is an authorised distributor of two magnificent tango shoes brands and producer of tango dresses.
TURQUOISE is global tango shoe brand hand made in Istanbul that offers you superior quality, original look and style. Detail oriented and quality focused team of craftsmen does their best to turn every single pair into a little masterpiece.
Turquoise offers a wide variety of unique designs, with many shoes being one of a kind. To ensure a perfect fit, tango shoes come in narrow models and half sizes, which is not often the case with many other top tango shoe brands.
REGINA TANGO SHOES is a project spawned from the passion for shoes and the long experience of Eva Nataraja as a stylist in Paris, Spain, Germany, Italy and as an argentine tango dancer, devotee and organizer of milongas in Rimini, Riccione, Italy, and Buenos Aires.
At first, Eva created tango shoes for herself and her friends, due to the lack of glamor in those Italian quality porteñe shoes and especially the lack of comfort in tango or traditional dance shoes. Reginas provide enorm stability and comfort during dancing and help you to take your tango to another level.
