Higher Degree in Pedagogy of Contemporary Dance (CSDMA) and Master in Psychodidactics (EHU)I moved to Madrid in 2001 with a Scholarship for Dance Training of the Provincial Council of Guipúzcoa. My interest in education through dance has led me to become a member of the Orff-Spain Association and to develop the following research projects Art and culture. Aesthetic education through dance and The experience The body as a means for significant individual and collective learning. 

I am a teacher at the Own Master's Degree in Education through Dance  at the UAM and at the Escuela Superior de Arte Dramático y danza de Euskadi `.Dantzerti'. I have been a teacher of Dance Education at the Conservatorio Superior de Danza 'María de Ávila' in Madrid and I have been part of several artistic-educational projects such as MUS-E or  Trasdanza. Young people in movement .

My professional experience has developed continuously between the stage and teaching. As a performer and repetitionist, I was part of the Madrid-based company "La Compañía de la Música" for more than six years. Megaló mobile theatre and I have performed works by choreographers such as Nicolás Rambaud, Carmen Werner, Teresa Nieto and Enrique Cabrera, among others. This experience enriches the teaching and choreographic work that I have been doing for years with children, young people and adults.

In 2013 I launched El lagarto baila, an artistic-educational project with which I seek to expand my teaching activities through performance proposals and workshops. Under the umbrella of this initiative I have produced two choreographic works aimed at children: IzAdi (2021) and 2x4 (2015).
