I’m originally from Venezuela, and my journey into embodiment has unfolded across lands and cultures – from Mallorca to London, and now Portugal, where I’ve been based since 2016. My work weaves together yoga, voice, breath, art, and nature to create immersive spaces for self-enquiry and authentic connection.

I guide retreats and workshops rooted in experiential body-mind practices, with a focus on somatic awareness, subtle movement, and fresh sensory perception. My teaching blends a slow and fluid vinyasa style with emotional presence and a deep listening to the rhythms of the inner world.

With a devotion to sacred sound, I share the vibrational language of mantra and kirtan, using the harmonium and the voice as tools for heart-centred presence and collective attunement. Through my offerings, I invite others to remember the body as a space of intelligence, belonging, and radiant expression.

 

Certifications & Ongoing Learning
I completed my Triyoga Teacher Training Diploma in London in 2015, accredited by the British Wheel of Yoga and Yoga Alliance Professionals (UK). My early studies were grounded in Iyengar and Hatha yoga, and I later trained in Yoga Mindfulness for Children with Jo Manuel at the Special Yoga Foundation.

Since then, my path has been shaped by ongoing studies in somatic movement, Qigong, chanting, and embodied anatomy, drawing from teachers such as Jean Hall, Claudia Dossena, Mimi Kuo Deemer, Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen, Aki Omori, and Paula Andreewitch. I'm currently deepening my knowledge through Joanne Avison’s Fascia Mastery and the Advanced Yoga Teacher Training with Arhanta Yoga Academy.

In 2020, I founded Momenta, a project that explores movement, nature and creative expression as a pathway to presence and self-discovery.

I live in Portugal, where my days unfold through this practice, along with art, music, and the joy of weaving life with friends and community.
