Sara Westin
Sara is Swedish, and she was born in 1990. She began dancing when she was only 4 years old . When
she turned 10 years old , she started a 9 year-long education at the Royal College of Sweden, in
Stockholm. She wanted to be a dancer. During those years she did lots of performances
and projects, on many stages in Sweden and abroad. It wasn't until the last year of her
studies, that she went to Buenos Aires for the first time, on holiday with her mother who was dancing tango,
but Sara just wanted to take ballet classes at Julio Bocca's contemporary ballet school , and
in DNI. After 3 weeks in Buenos Aires, without trying, or even watching a tango class, the
teachers persuaded her to try at least one lesson before she returned to Sweden.
In her last days, she finally took some tango lessons, and fell in love.
She went home, graduated from school and returned to Buenos Aires after a year, planning to
stay for ten weeks. But the journey of ten weeks turned into seven months of classes
of Tango during the day, and milongas at night. She met her partner Juan Pablo Canavire
who she can grow with as a dancer, create and gain experience in the life of tango. Before she returned
home, she was given incredible news - the possibility of joining the Company DNI and becoming
a teacher at the school.
Since October 2011 she has been a dancer and teacher in DNI, and is part of the DNI Tango family.
And she has done some performances in the milongas of Sweden, Buenos Aires and Jujuy, and also
participated in presentations with the Company DNI at the Avenida de Mayo for Tango National Day
and the Festival of Tangauta, a good start to her life as a dancer, and DNI teacher
of tango.
