Introduction
Natasha Low Yi Ling (born October 11, 1993), better known by her stage name, Tasha (Korean: 타샤), is a Singaporean singer, dancer and television host, based in South Korea. She was the leader of Singaporean-South Korean girl group, Skarf, signed under Alpha Entertainment. Born and raised in Singapore, Low is thus fluent in English and Mandarin, and subsequently in Korean after moving to South Korea in 2011 to prepare for her debut with Skarf.

Early life
Born into a family of ballroom dancers, Low's great-grandfather was Low Poh San, who introduced ballroom dancing to Singapore and would later become Singapore Professional Ballroom Champion in 1946 from 1950 to 1953. Low's grandfather and parents were also accomplished ballroom dancers, with the former being Sunny Low, the owner of the renowned Sunny Low Dance Studio and a household name in Singapore in the 70's and 80's. Her brother also trained in Thailand to be a professional ballroom dancer.
Low used to be a member of her primary school's TAF (Trim and Fit) Club. After completing her Secondary School studies at Fuhua Secondary School, Low accompanied her friend to participate in the Singapore leg of the JYP and Alpha Asean Region Audition held in 2010 by Alpha Entertainment, which saw her defeating 3000 competitors to be one of the four Singaporeans selected. Despite her fluency in dance, she sang during the audition. She moved to South Korea in the following year.
It was revealed that as of 2012, Low had not been in any relationship before.
