Bio:
Ezgi Turmus started her tango journey at the Istanbul University Dance Club more than 20 years ago. She was interested in both roles from the day she started tango, and studied with various teachers in Istanbul and Buenos Aires.

In 2009, Ezgi founded TangoSam, a vibrant and inclusive tango community in her hometown Samsun, where she started teaching and organizing Mar Negro Open Role Tango Marathon. She has honed her skills as a teacher and performer for more than a decade, and is now the most highly sought after dual role dancer internationally. She has been invited to teach and perform at many organizations, festivals and events across Europe, Asia and most recently the United States. Some of Ezgi’s most memorable dual role performances have been with well-known Argentine dancers Ariadna Naivera and Corina Herrera.

In 2017, she competed in Istanbul Mundial de Baile and came in 8th place as a leader in the finals.
