Elena was fantastic, the absolute highlight of the night. Guests were enthralled with her tarot readings, and she came with her own tent to set up that set the atmosphere perfectly. Will have to use her again and couldn’t recommend more

Elana and her assistant were a delight to have at our party. The readings were a fun and insightful. All of our guests told us what a great time they had having their cards read. The tent and ambiance she brought to the party were above and beyond what we were expecting.

- Elena-
Over a decade ago, Argentine Tango captured Elena’s heart, marking the beginning of an inspiring journey in dance that continues to flourish. While her serious dive into competitive Argentine Tango and ballroom dance began in 2018, Elena’s passion for movement and expression started long before. Her fascination with dance traces back more than 20 years when she moved to Istanbul, Turkey, where she first dedicated herself to mastering the art of belly dancing.

Today, Elena continues to embody her love for dance through Argentine Tango, performing and competing at the highest levels nationally and internationally. Alongside her instructor and dance partner, Grisha Nisnevich, she brings this deeply expressive dance to life, captivating audiences with their skill, connection, and shared passion for tango.

In addition to tango, Elena is also a skilled tarot reader. She began reading cards in 2017 and has continued to refine her craft, studying with esteemed tarot masters in the U.S. and abroad. Her intuitive readings offer a mystical, insightful experience, making her performances and events even more memorable.
