Second try to post a little something for Tanja...sorry for this temporary technical glitch...
I guess all i wanted to say is that all my thoughts are with my dearest Theo and all of Tanja's friends and family.
I met Tanja a few times when she was in London. To me, she is this totally exceptional human being that stays in your head and inspires you to be yourself. Her gorgeous and open smile says it all!
This blog is a great place for all the people who met her (briefly or knew her for so many years), in any corner of the world to get together and share our good memories.
Today Tanja is alive through her work, our pictures and in everybody's heart, thoughts and dreams.
Lots of love to you all.

T.L.K.O not only our joint initials but also our fashion label which we called Tender Loving Knock Out! Just one of the many hilarious fun and exciting things Tanja and me did in that 9 fabulous months we spent in Dv8 together. The whole cast loved her so much, I remember once she fell over on stage and I waited for Lloyds reaction nervously at notes the next day. I can't remember his exact words but it was something about how stunningly she fell and how brilliantly she dealt with it. Thats Tanja!
I miss her so much and wish I had of gone to visit her after swimming last week instead of saying I needed some time with Tom and Jimmy. I wish so much.
Lastly my heart is forever broken and I wish i could give you a massive cuddle Sol. Tom and I are here for you if you need anything. Theo I never met you but Tanja spoke of you often. she loved you alot. Kurt and Gerlinder I am so sorry. she was amazing, and as a mother i struggle to know how you are coping. my love to you all.
well my sweet chookie from curling wands to whipped cream I love you always and your memory will always make me smile. KO.xxxxxxxxxx

I still remember when I arrived in London, at the Rambert school how happy and touched I was to have met Tanja. She was the only person to me who could communicate in different languages, therefore we had loads of fun to jump from one language to another so no one could understand.
The truth is that I was amazingly surprised of how well she had knowledge of speaking in Spanish, although she only lived in Madrid a couple of years. I always knew and felt that she had a great talent for understanding cultures and taking what's best in them.Where by she could later offer her true talent to those countries.
Me and Ainhoa are sending huge support and thought for all friends and family.
Also believe that she will only iluminate the sky above with stars even more.
Her memory will last for long and ever in peoples hearts and this will make positive changes, just the ways she was wishing it.
Querida Tanja....pensamos en ti...en la magnifica y loca party que fuimos a tu casa, donde nos lo hemos pasado de pipa y donde nos acojistes con todo el cariƱo del mundo.
Te recordaremos, pensamos y continuaremosa luchar y crear belleza, para que en lo que creistes las llamas nunca se apaguen .

With love,
Maria and Ainhoa

We have been priviledged to have known Tanya since she was a little girl. The Leidke family moved in opposite us in Farnham Common. Tanya used to babysit for my two sons and was always the sweetest,kindest, caring child. We have followed her growing up, her very successful career. We have enjoyed her company in London with Sol and were so thrilled to see her at the Festival Hall. That such a talented wonderful girl should be taken from all of us is tragic. She is in a greater place than us but it is us and particularly her loving family and Sol who have to learn how to carry on without her here. Our thoughts are with you every day - Marilyn Tony and OLiver and Elliott xx
