About Giselle Anne
With nearly four decades of experience, Giselle Anne is one of the most respected figures in Argentine Tango — known worldwide for her artistry, precision, and pioneering teaching methodology.
Originally trained in contemporary dance, ballet, and folklore, she began exploring tango in the 1980s, studying with legendary milongueros Antonio Todaro and Pepito Avellaneda.
Her professional career spans performances with icons such as Libertad Lamarque, Mariano Mores, and José Collangelo, and appearances in renowned productions like Tango Argentino and Tango Pasión. She has performed and taught across Europe, the Americas, and Asia.
During her years in Spain, Giselle founded a tango school and the Casa del Tango in Seville, creating original works and developing her distinctive teaching style.
In collaboration with Gustavo Naveira, she co-developed a comprehensive tango methodology based on the analysis of movement, musicality, and structure — now taught globally and at their studio in the U.S.
Her dance embodies elegance, strength, and grace — the timeless essence of Tango Salon.
Stay tuned for her full Los Angeles schedule, seminar topics, prices, and locations.
She will also perform at Milonga Gavito on Friday, December 5th — a night not to be missed!
