Melisa Durak

Bosnia and Herzegovina

Tango is much more than dancing for Melisa. She believes that there are no random encounters and so a few years ago tango entered her life and soon became part of her everyday life. She is a co-organizator of tango events and various tango projects in Bosnia and Herzegovina, local milongas, and The Sarajevo Tango Festival - growing and vibrant international tango event. She loves music and enjoys watching others dance, and for the past couple of years she has been committed to exploring tango music - thus encountering a large amount of tango music and different styles between tango orchestras. Tango Djing for her was a natural sequence of events and her exciting milongas, abounding in beautiful dancing tandas and local cortinas prepared with love. Melisa has been actively engaged in the phenomenon of Argentine tango and visits various tango events in the region, Europe and the world, which nurture this culture, music and dance, to improve her knowledge and skills.
