Simone Pinheiro

Simone has been dancing for as long as she can remember, in genres as varied as ballet and the dances of her native Brazil, and has also practiced capoeira and yoga. She started learning, dancing, and falling in love with Argentine tango in 2007 in Boston. Inspired by the music, she believes in the co-creation of its expression by both partners within the embrace. She joined the Tango Mercurio faculty in 2015 and served as Artistic Director from 2020 to 2021.
