Tanja is a seriously amazing dancer and wonderful soul. I've had the opportunity to see her dance as well as expeience her sweetness in person. She's genuine, humble and just bad ass. She is true to her spirit and expresses her heart with sweet energy. I'm lucky to know this girl.

This woman has the most voracious appetite for life! Both a good and bad influence ... when you're with Tanja, "More is More!"!!!!

Rwaaar! I think Tanja is one of the funniest, beautifullest, brightest, not to mention sweetest ladies I've ever met. She's such a strong, rooted spirit and a wonderful dancer, too. I am so glad to know her!!!
