About me
How Freeform Dance Movement Helped Me Reconnect with Life
In 2020, during a therapy session, my psychologist recommended that I try 5Rhythms to fine-tune my emotional awareness. I had never danced before and was convinced I wouldn’t like it… how wrong I was! This path led me to discover conscious dance practices, but the true turning point came in 2021, after a van accident that nearly cost me my life. Through Ecstatic Dance and 5Rhythms, I found a way to express what I couldn’t put into words after the trauma. Since then, I have felt a deep sense of gratitude toward both practices.
From this experience, a curiosity was born within me: to deepen my own relationship with movement and eventually learn how to facilitate spaces where others could explore theirs.
In 2023–2024, I completed a nine-month training in Ecstatic Dance facilitation with Albert Pala, one of the pioneers of Ecstatic Dance in Spain & Europe.
Since then, my personal dance practice has continued to grow and evolve, through different disciplines, teachers and embodied experiences:
+100 hours of 5Rhythms
I have danced for over 100 hours in 5Rhythms classes with teachers such as Gina Espinosa and Noelia Ruiz in Barcelona. I have completed the Waves workshop level and have also had an introduction to Heartbeat.
+100 hours of Contact Improvisation
Since 2025, I have been exploring Contact Improvisation through weekly classes with Uma Maraval, deepening my understanding of listening, physical dialogue and spontaneous movement.
+50 hours of Contact Beyond Contact
In 2026, I began training in Contact Beyond Contact with Vangelis Legakis, opening another path of exploration into relational movement, connection and embodied communication.
Each of these practices brings a different perspective to my dance and facilitation, continually expanding the way I listen, move, relate and create spaces for shared exploration.
Rooting Myself in the Earth My Sanctuary in Nature
I need to connect with the earth regularly, immersing myself in the sweet territory of silence from the deep forests—without it, I feel unwell. Since childhood, I’ve been close to nature through hobbies like fly fishing and foraging wild mushrooms. My form of Vipassana is spending a week alone in the Pyrenees Mountains with my campervan, searching for morels and porcinis while contemplating the beauty of nature and listening to the earth's rhythms. As a 1/3 Projector, these moments allow me to rest, release what isn’t mine, and recharge my energy.
EDULIS Ecstatic Dance in Harmony with Nature
Edulis is a musical project born from my gratitude for conscious dance practices and my deep connection with nature—particularly forests, rivers, and fungi. I infuse this energy into every session, transforming them into gateways to the energy of the moment, guided by natural cycles. This connection influences every detail, from the selection of the site that hosts the dance floor, to the visuals in my communication, the incorporation of natural elements in the decor, the warm-up practices, and the musical journey that accompanies the dancers.

From Analysis to Rhythm My Journey Before Dancing
Trained as an engineer in 2010, I have spent the last 15 years using my creativity to solve business challenges with a positive social and environmental impact. This path has led me to collaborate with a wide range of organizations, from multinational renewable energy companies to launching an aquaponics startup that grows fresh vegetables by repurposing fish waste. I continue working in this field part-time as a Social Innovation consultant. More info here.
