Ximena has always been in contact with Yoga, she remembers from childhood practicing asana and meditation with her dad as a deep spiritual practice that turned out to be a central pillar in her life. Growing up with strong values of compassion and service she was always in contact with holistic practices and diverse spiritual philosophies. Ximena’s formal education in Yoga started with Prasadji Chinthapalli, former teacher at the Indian Embassy in Mexico; she then started her Teacher Trainings at the Mexican Universal Yoga Federation (FMYU), and other Yoga schools with different styles and techniques. She was granted the ITEC Scholarship on behalf of the Indian Embassy in Mexico which allowed her to attend the International Yoga Instructor’s Course at the Swami Vivekananda University (SVYASA) in Bangalore, where she continued her education as MSc in Yoga (Therapy). Her approach has always been holistic, with the mission of bringing Yoga where it is most needed, and so she specialized in Trauma Informed Yoga, working with vulnerable populations like home shelters, recovery centers and incarcerated people.
