Vania started teaching tango in 2002 in Berlin, Germany. A full time tango teacher since 2004 she moved to New York, where she started DJ-ing in 2008. Vania is equally respected and accomplished as both leader and follower. Her greatest strengths as a teacher and dancer are her versatility and range, gained through years of experience dancing and teaching a wide variety of styles – from Nuevo to Milonguero. By pairing an analytical mind with exceptional kinesthetic sense and strong observation skills, Vania emphasizes fine-tuning the fundamentals, and encourages the sharing of more nuanced communication as a path for deeper connection. Vania has traveled to teach and DJ tango in Buenos Aires, and all-over North America and Europe.

As a DJ, over the years Vania has witnessed a constant evolution both in her musical preferences and in her DJ style. She stays conscious of that development, because it permits her to relate to and play for dancers with wide spread of experience and skill levels. Currently Vania hosts and DJs a monthly milonga in Austin, TX, while continuing her regular travels.
