Yoga has been with me for 20 years. Dance for more. Yogini, dancer, social worker and doula. The last 17 years I have offered training to groups, 13 of them working on social projects. Yoga and dance classes for 12 years. I teach the Yoga Danza Veda training in Madrid and Bilbao. About me… Something guided me step by step to here. Now I can see how each life experience was essential, and I appreciate it. Yoga knocked on my door at the age of 18, unexpected. He has been doing this for 20. He has appeared to stay, growing with me, helping me to overcome injuries, difficulties and, most importantly, to find myself with natural movement and freedom. I have passed through different schools, and each one of them has shown me some new corner of this immense philosophy of life. I live yoga as a framework for exploring who I am, putting technique at the service of life itself, and of the mystery that is sometimes revealed. I am very grateful to the teachers I have been nourished by training in Yoga, in various schools (Hatha, Integral, Kundalini …), and in Shakti Dance, going through different dance styles (oriental, tribal fusion, contact impro, African, funky, contemporary … ); and to the teachers who have inspired the blossoming of the Sufi turn in my heart, including Rumi. The teachings and the living spirit of the Vedas, of the tantric tradition and of Advaita Vedanta, nourish and flourish in my heart.
