My educational sources

To understand the now, the past has some answers, but everything keeps changing

Paula Ramirez in 1987 Gymnastics. La Paz, BCS, Mexico

Like the most of you, I came into this world learning through the five senses what does “to live” means. As a shy and very quiet Mexican kid, my inner dialogue was full of kinetic curiosity about how to fly from one couch to the other, climb trees or do backflips in gymnastics. In 1997 I moved to Guadalajara, Mexico to study a bachelor in Communication Sciences. During those four and a half years, I joined first the Contemporary Dance and did Pilates as a methodical warm up. Then continued dancing with my unviersity's Jazz group until I realised that being a mind and body connector was my true vocation.

I’ve been able to learn from so many diverse personalities and backgrounds using my body as an amazing tool and my spirit towards empathy and playfulness to help others; always looking for adventures but coming back to “my core”. And that's exactly what I want to invite you to do: To find your own way to move through life with awareness and joy.
