hola, again…
mailen here.
I’m originally from Argentina (Mendoza) and moved to the USA in 2007. I lived in Seattle (WA) for the first 15 years and in 2022 relocated to San Antonio (TX)
My background is quite an interesting medley… I studied Fine Arts for four years, then worked with children for about nine years, then became a combat athlete and competed in Jiu Jitsu and Muay Thai… which led me to the practice of Yoga due to injuries. In 2023 I travelled solo to Thailand for two months to train Muay Thai where I was intuitively guided to deepen my Yoga practice and to join a silent retreat at the Buddhist Dipabhāvan Meditation Center (Koh Samui)… and that was the portal into my holistic journey of life.
I am so very passionate about spirituality and all things involving yoga philosophy and history, languages, creativity, sound/music, astrology, tarot/oracle, the mystical and mythical, as well as Mixed Martial Arts... I embrace and celebrate all aspects of my humanness.
My modalities are empirical, rooted in devotion, deep respect and honor for ancient traditions… I am an enthusiastic lifetime student… in a lifetime practice of Yoga.
this is my story…
