“As a bilingual movement instructor, I guide diverse bodies into a deeper sense of ease and capability by weaving together strength, mobility, and nervous system awareness — creating flexibility that feels supportive rather than extreme.”
I’m a movement guide and photographer living outside of Guadalajara, Mexico, where land stewardship, motherhood, and daily practice shape how I live and teach.
I’m a lifelong student of yoga, strength, and the nervous system. My work is less about pushing bodies into shapes and more about helping people feel safe, capable, and at home within their own.
Through strength-based mobility, inversions, backbends, and intuitive flow, I offer a practice rooted in honesty and presence — one that meets both beginners and seasoned movers where they are.
Teaching, for me, is not about mastery. It’s about relationship — with the body, the breath, and the ongoing process of becoming.
I found yoga in my early twenties through the 26+2 hot yoga practice, and it has remained a steady thread through every season of my life since. In 2022, I completed my 200-hour teacher training with Authentic Movements, which deepened my devotion to movement as an evolving, lifelong study rather than a fixed discipline.
Since then, my learning has continued through a blend of online study and in-person workshops focused on intuitive sequencing, flexibility and contortion, handstands and inversions, and nervous-system-informed mobility. I’ve had the privilege of learning from teachers such as Irene Papas, Janet Stone, Talia Sutra, and Marie Bell PR.
My teaching mirrors my personal practice — creative, embodied flows that integrate contortion drills, inversion techniques, arm balances, and strength-based mobility. Whether online or in person, my intention is to keep learning, teaching, and cultivating spaces where curiosity, resilience, and connection can grow.
