| Personal Bio |
I have been involved in the exploration and expression of the human body for over twenty years. From the beginning of the ‘80s, I started my training in contemporary dace, in Santo Domingo, specifically in the Martha Graham technique. In Mexico, I took continued education courses for teachers and dancers, in the same technique, as well as workshops in corporal and theatrical techniques. I have also trained in the Limon, Cunningham and Taylor schools.
In my twenty years as dancer/actor, I have performed as a soloist in dance pieces and theatre/dance, choreographed dances and taught children (creative movement), as well as adults.
In addition to my work in Pilates, I also practice Yoga. I introduce in my classes certain Yoga elements that are compatible with my discipline and teaching methodology, enriching in this way the class sessions.
I believe in the resources and potential of the human body, including its ability to maintain and rehabilitate health through pro-active and natural methods within the reach of every individual, such as healthy eating habits, a positive mind-set, and appropriate physical activity.
