Anne-Sophie
Anne-Sophie Ville, a Belgian native, started dancing Argentine Tango in
Washington DC and in very short time became one of the main tango organizers in
this community as well as a highly sought after dancer and instructor.
She has studied with many of the great dancers of our day: Fabian Salas, Gustavo Naveira, Pablo Veron, Chicho Frumboli, Julio and Corina, Jean-Sebastien
Rampazzi, Mauricio Castro, and the late Carlos Gavito, only to name a few.
During many years, Anne-Sophie continued to sharpen her dancing skills assisting these and the
other great tango instructors she invited each year to instruct and visit with
the DC-Baltimore tango community. She is also spending a few months each year in Buenos Aires to immerse herself in the Tango Culgture.
Anne-Sophie is recognized for her skills as both a follower and leader. She is also known as a dancer of all styles: a true milonguera when she dances close-embrace and a fluid and innovative tanguera when she dances the "Nuevo Tango" style in open embrace.
Anne-Sophie is the founder and organizer of the Washington DC Tango Marathon , one of the best and most highly attended tango festivals in the United States, attracting over 300 dancers from the US and Europe each year for 4 days of non-stop dancing and organized of the Baltimore Tango Fest that brought to the East coast Mariano Chicho Frumboli, Mariana Dragone, Sebastian Arce and Mariana Montes .
In 2007, she decided to leave the United States and travel the world to dance and teach tango. She is now visiting tango communities over the world to share her enthusiasm and love of the dance. She might be coming soon to your community!

Anne-Sophie and Pablo
As teachers and performers, Anne-Sophie and Pablo bring the dynamic, eclectic nature of the tango front and center. Hallmarks of the traditional tango style, like the partners’ deep connection and elegant movements, mingle effortlessly in their dances with the athletic power and speed of the nuevo style—which makes for performances as subtle as they are thrilling. As teachers, Anne-Sophie and Pablo take the time to explain all the complex details clearly, sharing their rich experience of technique with every student. And with the energy and youthful vitality they bring to all they do, they never forget to emphasize the tango’s playful nature. Above all, they want their students to have as much fun as they do, from the very first class.
