I'm a Chilean Dance Artist, currently living in Escazú, Costa Rica since 2025. With over 18 years of experience, I’ve taught dance to students of all ages and backgrounds in diverse international contexts. I studied a Bachelor of Arts with a major in Dance, followed by an additional year to obtain a degree in Dance Pedagogy from the University of Chile. I later completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Contemporary Dance and a Master's in Contemporary Dance at the London Contemporary Dance School (The Place) in the United Kingdom. Throughout my career, I have traveled and studied in cities such as Vienna, Wuppertal, London, The Hague, and New York. I became certified as a Gaga teacher in 2021, after completing my training in Tel Aviv. I have worked as a dancer-performer with various companies and choreographers, and I have taught contemporary dance, ballet, and rhythmic gymnastics in schools, colleges, and academies in both the United Kingdom and Latin America. Between 2019 and 2023, I was part of the multidisciplinary art collective Viceversos as co-choreographic director and contemporary dance teacher. I'm currently the artistic director of RARA: Contemporary Dance Festival in Pucón, Chile, which will celebrate its fifth edition in 2026. My classes are exclusively online, tailored to the needs and interests of each student. I offer classes in contemporary dance, ballet, improvisation, choreography, and theoretical tutoring. My teaching aims to be clear, dynamic, and meaningful—encouraging enjoyment of movement, respect for personal processes, and the development of a deep and sensitive relationship with the body.
