Sabrina Veliz

Sabrina Veliz is a tango dancer whose recorded career covers stage productions, festival performances, teaching events and a book ^[1]. Most of the dated material comes from the "Sobre nosotros" page of a website shared with Ruben Veliz, and many of its entries are phrased in the plural, referring to a couple or to "their" anniversaries ^[1].

The recorded activities run from 1998, when she was part of the lead couple of Milonga Boulevard at its US premiere, to 2025, when she performed with Alejandro Lencina at a festival in Porto ^[1][5]. In between, she appeared at a royal jubilee in the Netherlands, created and directed stage works, and danced at La Viruta in Buenos Aires ^[1][2]. She also published the book 'Secretos del abrazo', and she created and directs the Entre Minas Fest ^[1][4].

A dance-video index lists four dance partners: Ruben Veliz, Carlitos Espinoza, Fernando Sanchez and Alejandro Lencina ^[6]. The dossier does not give dates for these partnerships ^[6].
