Valencia Batiuk is an Argentine tango dancer and teacher with over three decades of artistic journey. Trained in classical ballet, contemporary dance, and tango, she began her career in the early 1990s, performing with Brenda Angiel, Miguel Robles, and in Tango by Carlos Saura. As a member of Ana María Stekelman’s renowned company Tangokinesis, she toured across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. Valencia has built a vibrant teaching career in Buenos Aires and internationally. She co-founded El Motivo Tango, a lea ding space for the exploration and transmission of social tango, and created BONDI, a collective for study and creative practice. She has served as a juror for the Metropolitan and World Tango Championships, and embodies tango’s living essence—its elegance, depth, and continual reinvention.

Her journey with tango began in 2010, leading her to study and explore the dance deeply across Argentina and Europe. She holds an MFA in Performing Arts from the University of Gothenburg. Specifically for this event, Angelika will be accompanied by Giorgos, her life partner, who brings over 25 years of experience in tango. With studies in social sciences and a master’s degree in dance from DUTH University in Greece, he unites intellectual insight with artistic devotion in his approach to tango. Angelika and Giorgos focus on connection and the fluid dialogue between partners that define the essence of tango
