Aleksandra has been dancing her whole life; the first three decades were dedicated to ballet, with tango a relatively recent (2019) addition. She’s spectacularly bad at sport, having spent all her early life dancing or playing the piano, with the exception of playing Twister, where she’s highly competitive.

Cementing her belief that all good things in life are for sharing, she also bakes excellent cakes and savouries, often bringing them to the milongas she attends.
