I’m Elina

For ten years I was a figure skater, living on the ice with grace and precision — and for five of those years I also trained in ballroom dancing. Then tango came into my life.
Meeting Slava changed everything — I discovered that tango is not just music or dance, but a whole universe filled with energy and magic.
Tango Tabøø Academy was created to share this universe and open its doors to everyone who wants to experience it.




Our tango team


Tereza Hanusova

has been connected to movement since childhood, starting with gymnastics and ballet. Throughout her life she has explored Latin dances, folk dance, and dance aerobics, later dedicating more than 10 years to contemporary dance and, in the last 3 years, to aerial hoop. Two years ago she discovered the world of tango, and today she shares her passion as a teacher at the Academy Tango Taboo in Prague.

SLAVA YUTA MAKS

With years of experience in folk dance and tango nuevo, I’ve created simple yet powerful methods that help dancers gain full control of their bodies, unlock natural movement, and achieve balance and harmony. The Lost Tango expands creativity and improvisation while giving energy to dance for hours, and Nuevo Pasos teaches elegance and confidence in high heels.
