DanzaMedicina started pulsating in 2007, during an initiation process in a mountain called Annapurna II in Nepal. I climbed the mountain as an aspiring sommelier who lived in Paris and came down willing to search for untold narratives, starting my journey as a caminante.

I began my meditation studies in S. N. Goenka School, in the tradition of Sayagyi U Ba Khin, in the north of France. I traveled the Brazilian Amazon Rainforest in search of its medicines and towards women, such as Putanny Yawanawá and Dona Francisquinha. In the Peruvian Andes, I was initiated into the ancient tradition of Munay-ki and participated in the Annual Meetings of Feminine Wisdom Warmi Tinkui. In the Himalayas, I was initiated into traditional healing practices, such as Tibetan Medicine. I graduated in Hatha Yoga on the bank of the Ganges in the Shivananda lineage, in India. In the ancient forests of Eastern Europe, I met Mongolian shamanism with Professor Emil Nuna, in Romania. In the U.S. I walked barefoot and set around the sacred fire with medicine women, such as Sweet Medicine Nation and Grandmother Sarah Bicknell. From the Colombian Paola Parra, I learned about the magic of IxCacao Ceremony, the cacao ceremony in the Mayan tradition. I was baptized as Tlazolteotl by Danza de la Luna in Teotihuacan, and initiated as a Temazcalera in the tradition of Camiño Rojo de Ollintlahuimeztli with Abuela Malinalli. I learned the traditional midwifery techniques from the Mexican Naoli Vinagre. Komala Lyra taught me the four elements practices based on Tantra and Ayurveda studies. With Elder Heloísa Porto, I experienced the methods Spirit Releasement Therapy and Holodynamics, in addition to ancient rites belonging to the Dagara African tribe from Burkina Fasso. With Rosangela Silvestre I was introduced, through dance and prayer, to the Orixás’ symbology in Silvestre Technique. From the masters Tadashi Endo, Yumiko Yoshioka, Ana Medeiros, Hiroshi Nishiyama I am diving into the art of Butoh. Together with Suely Rolnik, as my master's degree advisor in Clinical Psychology, I permeate academy to destabilize obsolete structures from within (…) These are only a few of the many teachers that crossed my path, representing who I am - becoming.
