About me

When I was 14 years old, I made the most important decision of my life: to stop consuming products derived from animal exploitation. Without knowing it at the time, that choice would shape the course of my path, as I realized I wanted to relate to life in the most loving way possible—with myself, other animals, and the Earth.

​

At 16, I discovered Conscious Menstruation, and it became the doorway to my spiritual journey.

​

It came from an inner call to know myself more deeply. My first encounter was in a women’s circle, and within that circle, I became aware of the sacredness of my menstruation. It opened a door to the possibility of dying and being reborn every month, as well as seeing my blood and cycles as symbols of health.

​

After graduating from college, I went to see my family’s homeopathic doctor to address some imbalances. Looking into my eyes, she told me with complete certainty that "my path in life was yoga".

​

At that time, I had only practiced yoga a few times and hadn’t enjoyed it much, but trusting her completely, I decided to give it another try.

 

Around the same time, I attended a women’s gathering from the Red Path, which sparked my curiosity about this spiritual path that honors Indigenous ancestral practices and recognizes plants as allies in transformative processes.

​

I found a yoga studio that I immediately connected with, along with several of the teachers there. I realized that more than just a physical or mental practice, it was a path to the spirit.

​

During this period of self-exploration, I also started contemporary dance, having danced since I was 11 and practiced rhythmic gymnastics since the age of five.

​

A few years later, I decided to study yoga, and by life’s synchronicities, I won a scholarship to study Hatha Raja Yoga. At that time, I didn’t know the difference between this lineage and other types of yoga, but it was then that I fell deeply in love with and surrendered to this medicine gifted to humanity.

​

During the pandemic, I started sharing some of my knowledge about Conscious Menstruation, beginning with workshops on the archetypes people with uteruses go through each month.

​

In 2021, I trained in Ovarian Breathing Feminine Alchemy & Shakti Prayer with my teacher, Sajeeva Hurtado, to continue learning about the arts related to the uterus while also continuing my self-study in Natural Gynecology.

​

In 2022 and 2023, I furthered my training with Andrei Ram after a deep emotional breakdown that brought me face-to-face with my shadow.

​

I was diagnosed with anxiety and depression, and it was during this time that I had to surrender to trust the choices I had made for my life, putting into practice the tools that had been given to me and had saved me: yoga, Conscious Menstruation, meditation, and psychotherapy.

​

Throughout these years, I never stopped sharing yoga. Breathing has been my anchor to life. I resumed teaching simultaneously in some studios in Quito, as I had before the pandemic. I also began giving theoretical and practical classes at @saphiraices, a space 50 minutes outside of Quito, Ecuador.

​

I am currently training in Natural Gynecology and am starting the journey of sharing my work with others.

​

I laugh at this process because it has been about facing fears and insecurities. But here I am, sharing my story with you in the hopes that if you feel called, you’ll share yours with me.

​

I know what it feels like to lose connection with life, and I also know what it feels like to hear that inner call—the one that invites us to wake up, take responsibility, and live with contentment and fullness.

​

I am here to support your journey and remind you of your capacity to heal yourself.
