Biography

Brigitta Winkler currently divides her time between New York and Berlin.  She
studied ballet and modern dance for many years.  In 1980, her life changed when
she discovered Argentine Tango.  She then spent some years in Paris studying
with Virulazo, a star of Argentine Tango.   Her first stage appearance was in
1986 in Montreal’s Tangoshow.

Brigitta teaches at festivals in the USA, Germany, Italy and Russia.  In 1987
she opened Tanzart in Berlin, which then became Phynixtanzt, her school in
Berlin.  She studied intensively in the early 1980s in Buenos Aires with such
noted dancers as Juan Carlos Copes, Antonio Todaro, Pepito, Gustavo Naveira, and
Eduardo Arquimbau, among others.  Brigitta studied Authentic Movement and
incorporates a four-year program of Body Mind Centering into her approach.  She
is also the co-founder of the internationally acclaimed, all woman dance
company, Tangomujer.
