Silvia Ubieta ES

Silvia Ubieta began her dance training in Seville, continued in Paris and completed her studies at P.A.R.T.S. She worked as a dancer with choreographers such as Pierre Droulers, Veerle Bakelants, Thomas Plischke, Kosmas Kosmopoulos, Anabel Schellekens and Sara Goldfarb.
At the same time, she developed a teaching activity, specializing in contemporary dance, improvisation, and composition. As a teacher, Silvia works for Michelle-Anne de Mey, Claudio Bernardo, l'École du Ballet de Flandres, Charleroi-Danses/La Raffinerie, le Service pédagogique de la Monnaie and the Humanités artistiques danse at Lycée Martin V, where she could develop a pedagogical program based on 4 years of study, for young dancers aged between 14 and 18, who wish to enter a higher dance school.
Since 2007, Silvia has been a lecturer at ESAC-École supérieure des arts du cirque, working as an
artistic advisor, creative project assistant and dance teacher for students in a wide range of circus
disciplines. On several occasions, she has collaborated with the CNAC-Centre National des Arts du
Cirque in France and the Circus Centrum in Ghent.

Silvia has been practicing Iyengar yoga with Stefan Dreher, Alexis Simon and Willy Bok since 1998. A
few years later, she decided to train to become a teacher and graduated in June 2009. Several stays in India, at the Ramamani Iyengar Memorial Yoga Institute in Pune, enabled her to deepen her practice and teaching. Lyengar yoga trains body alignment using different supports during asana practice, and balance between mind, body, and spirit through awareness of pranayama, the breath.
