I propose, through this intensive, that we train ourselves to see the extraordinary within the ordinary; to allow ourselves to be in the present moment and, in doing so, to build and appreciate those unique and beautiful dances that arise in an instant of truth, inspiration, connection, and disconnection. We will keep technique, exploration, and improvisation at the forefront, creating the necessary space to foster these conversations in movement, these playful scenic situations—these authentic dances that emerge from you when you allow yourself to be “you.”
This will be an opportunity to cultivate listening, to value waiting, to let the dance happen, and to collaborate in the creation of those beautiful dances.

Marha Echavarria. From a very young age, life has guided me along the path of movement—dance, yoga, and medicine—and it continues to do so. I follow with gratitude, integrating profound learnings along the way. Today, I am still amazed by all that I have journeyed through, and even more by the path that still lies ahead.
I am a teacher and practitioner of Hatha Yoga, Iyengar, Anusara, and Kundalini Yoga. I am a drama teacher, a professional dancer, a graduate in contemporary dance, and an actress. I am also an instructor of Pilates, both on machines and mat. I hold a degree in Arts Education and a Master’s degree in Dance Movement Therapy.
Over the years, I have worked as a professional dancer with Imago Danza Contemporánea and other companies. I have also been a university lecturer at the University of Medellín, EAFIT University, and the University of Antioquia. Additionally, I have taught in academies and institutions dedicated to movement and dance such as Área and nunart Guinardó.
As a dancer, choreographer, and assistant choreographer, I have worked with artistic director Franco Dragone and the Dragone Entertainment Group..
