Bio | I was born in Guadalajara, Mexico, and I started my dance story from an early age with Flamenco and modern jazz, later focusing on hip-hop, jazz and salsa. Then I discovered Fusion Bellydance and set out to train with my most admired teachers: I’ve also trained intensively with Zoe Jakes, Suhaila Salimpour and Carolena Nericcio directly at their studios in San Francisco, CA. I have decided to complement my education with Classical Ballet, Japanese Butoh, Contemporary dance, Hip Hop, Flamenco and salsa, styles I practice and study as frequently as possible. I discovered Improvisational Tribal Style in 2004 in a VHS tape that was brought to me as a gift from California and fell instantly in love with it! In 2009 I officially started to teach Improvisation and Tribal Fusion Bellydance in the city of Guadalajara, Mexico. Being the first to offer classes in both styles. I traveled to San Francisco to get FCBD® General Skills Certified in 2010 and decided to take the time to get the whole format into my muscle memory and experience teaching it, before I took the step to become a FatChanceBellydance® Certified Studio in 2015. Ever since I started the FCBD® certification path, I set a clear objective for myself to promote and teach this beautiful art form as it is. I have had the honor to contribute in many dancers’ paths, all throughout Mexico, and share my work and vision in other countries, such as Costa Rica and currently in Spain. I have recently graduated from the FCBD® Technique for Teachers certification, which has fit in with my objectives perfectly. I also have the honor of currently working at FatChanceBellyDance® University as the Director’s Assistant and Social Media Manager. |
