Elena Zaléz is a Naarm/Melbourne-based artist and tango singer-dancer-teacher-DJ. Born in Argentina, Elena has lived, taught and performed in cities across the globe.
In 2003, she began dancing tango in her hometown of Patagonia. Soon after that, she moved to Buenos Aires to study at UNA (National Institute of Art) and the University of Tango, where she learned from the most famous teachers. She practiced milonguero style and tango nuevo, incorporating authentic tango at the milongas of Buenos Aires.
In 2008, while living in Europe, she started teaching milonguero-style tango with her partner Tom, introducing the change of roles. They organised the first Dias de Tango Festivalito, the Practica OFF in Lisbon, and then the Milonga de los Poetas in Dublin.
