discipline can become art

 Grace, strength, and a physique sculpted by years of dedication—Carlos Villasanti is the perfect example of how discipline can become art. With a striking athletic body shaped by countless hours of training, he captures attention long before he steps onto the stage. But beyond the defined muscles lies an artist driven by passion, culture, and a genuine desire to connect with people around the world. In this exclusive interview, the Paraguayan-born international dancer opens up about his journey, love, career, and the person behind the performances.

Could you introduce yourself? What's your name, how old are you, and where were you born?

My name is Carlos Villasanti. I'm 30 years old, and I was born in Asunción, Paraguay. I'm an international professional dancer, choreographer, and dance instructor specializing in Paraguayan folk dance, classical dance, and contemporary dance. I'm also a content creator focused on lifestyle and exotic plant care. Throughout my career, I have dedicated myself to exploring movement not only as a form of artistic expression but also as a way to tell stories, foster personal growth, and connect with people from different cultures.

Where are you currently living or performing, and how many countries have you visited throughout your international dance career?

I currently live in Prague, Czech Republic. Thanks to my work as a professional dancer, particularly performing on international cruise ships, I've had the opportunity to visit more than 50 countries across Europe, Asia, the Americas, Africa, and the Middle East. Traveling has given me invaluable experiences, allowing me to discover diverse cultures and artistic traditions while continuing to grow both personally and professionally.

How did your journey into dance begin, and what inspired you to become an international dancer?

My passion for dance began when I was very young. I was always fascinated by the ability of movement to express emotions without the need for words. As my artistic training progressed, I realized that dance could become much more than a hobby—it could become my profession and a way to connect with people all over the world. The dream of building an international career inspired me to work with discipline, perseverance, and consistency. Every stage I've performed on and every experience I've had has strengthened my belief that art has the power to transcend language and cultural barriers.

What's your current relationship status? Are you single, dating, married, or focused entirely on your career?

I'm currently in a committed relationship. Together, we're working on a very special project that aims to strengthen the cultural ties between Paraguay and Slovakia. I feel fortunate to share my life with someone who understands and supports the demands of an international career in the performing arts. While my professional development remains a priority, I also believe in the importance of building a strong relationship based on trust, communication, and mutual respect.

People often see the discipline of a dancer on stage. Behind closed doors, what habits, routines, or qualities do you have that most people wouldn't expect? And when it comes to intimacy, how would you describe yourself as a partner?

Away from the stage, I enjoy a much quieter lifestyle than most people would expect. I'm passionate about gardening, baking sourdough bread, spending time in nature, and creating a peaceful atmosphere at home. These activities help me stay balanced after the intensity of rehearsals and performances. I'm also naturally curious and enjoy constantly learning and finding new ways to grow, both as an artist and as a person.

As a partner, I deeply value honesty, loyalty, emotional connection, and open communication. I believe that a healthy relationship is built on trust, respect, and genuine care for one another. I consider myself present, attentive, and committed, always striving to create a safe and supportive environment where both people can grow and be their authentic selves.
