TORSTEN BRIEGER
Founded in 1981 by Sigrid Terbuyken, top tanz has become a leading European dance shoe brand.
As a former competitive dancer, Sigrid knows from first hand experience what to expect from the perfect dance shoe.
Initially reselling another German dance shoe brand she soon found out that only way to make a BETTER dance shoe by implementing her customers' feedback and her own improvement ideas was to designing her own line of quality dance shoes.
From her husband, who managed a well known German shoe factory she learned the trade how to manufacture shoes.
With her passion for dancing, unwavering commitment to outstanding quality, experience in designing comfortable dance shoes with the perfect fit and an eye for great looking styles, Sigrid has been providing dancers around the world with some of the best dance shoes for more than 35 years.
Torsten Brieger competed in ballroom dancing as a teenager in Germany. After moving to the US, Torsten rediscovered his passion for dancing when he got involved in Rhode Island's active Salsa and Latin dance community.
On his search for a comfortable, high quality dance shoe he discovered his first pair of top tanz dance shoes in Germany. He fell in love with the fashionable design that was perfect for social dancing and an attractive alternative to the conventional competition dance shoes.
