I am a first generation Ecuadorean-American who grew up in Houston, Texas. I was fortunate to grow up and be schooled in an integrated multicultural middle-class environment where my identity and that of those around me was valued and respected. I entered community activism and local politics in my 20s to affect policy changes and empower members of the Latino community in San Francisco, CA. In my 30s I traveled and worked in Latin America and Asia and gained a broader perspective of the world. I now have been living in UK for the past 12 years, married with 3 teenage kids. Whilst I have felt disconnected from the discourse of race, class and politics in the US, it is a huge topic of discussion in my household as my kids learn to navigate the world as multicultural young people. As a yoga teacher and health coach my passion is to create inclusive and welcoming spaces for collective wellbeing. The three day immersion with Bo reignited my belief that each of us is equipped to serve as change agents in the effort for social justice. I am thrilled to be sharing this journey with you.
