What people say about my work as a DJ
Melina is one of the finest and most well known Tango DJs in Europe – she combines deep musical knowledge, visions of dance and deeply rooted emotions to create milongas with an incredibly close and intimate atmosphere – astounding.
Karlheinz Rein, Germany (tango dancer)
Melina’s DJ seminar gave me the confidence to actually start playing music instead of just thinking about it. Working with her during teacher training completely shifted how I teach musicality. She and Detlef gave me actual tools to visualize and break down musical concepts so they land, instead of staying trapped in my head as feelings I can’t explain. What really stands out is how generous she is: always sharing materials, resources, practical things you can actually use. I really look up to her as a teacher, DJ, and dancer. She teaches what she dances and dances what she teaches.
Daniela Todorova, Scotland (tango dancer, teacher, and soon-to-be dj)
I have known Melina as a DJ for many years, and I have heard her at many events (including my own). It has always been a pleasure to dance to her well-chosen music.
Tiziano Franzoi, Switzerland (tango dancer, dj, organiser, teacher)
We can recommend Melina as a dedicated tango DJ who assures the perfect flow of the ronda.
Marco Rossi & Beatrice Zernitz, Italy (tango dancers, organisers, teachers)
I’ve done several DJ workshops now. … I would say the one and only one that made total sense to me was Melina Sedó’s. … Doing her course was a revaluation of how crucial some topics – that are not talked about in other courses – really are.
Graham Kite, Australia (dancer, teacher, dj)
