OPEN ROLE TANGO

Valérie started tango in Geneva in 2009 with Alejandro, and then with Mariela. Valérie discovered tango in Geneva in 2009 and continued her training in Buenos Aires from 2012, studying with numerous maestros while pursuing film studies. In 2019 she made a documentary on feminist movements in tango and explored open-role dancing within the queer community, gradually learning to lead.

Back in Geneva in 2022, where her relationship with the dance began, she joined Casitatango, and then  Égalitango and launched "Tita Milonga" in tribute to the women of tango. She highlights female artists (DJs, dancers, composers, singers, and musicians) as part of an effort to rebalance a scene long shaped by machismo. With this female composer awareness, she also begun DJing since 2025.

Now living between Buenos Aires and Geneva, she teaches a tango in which both roles actively dialogue to build each dance. Her all-level classes are open to everyone and prioritize improvisation and tools to sharpen listening to the body, the partner, and the music. The goal: to explore, in a relaxed, dynamic and playful way, a two-person conversation that reflects us and to gain freedom in the dance.

Co‑president of the Égalitango association, open‑role classes are offered every Tuesday at 7 pm for beginner dancers and at 8 pm for intermediate dancers. Monthly events are also organized on Saturdays at Villa Freundler (Plainpalais community house).
