Gabi (she/her)
Movement has always been a big part of my life. I started ballet and gymnastics when I was 4 years old and continued dancing until I was 18. Besides ballet, dancing was always important to me even outside of the studio. Growing up in Colombia means you dance to anything at any time and so dance surrounded me. It was always a happy place for me. I also grew up learning yoga from my two parents, so moving my body is something I have been taught to value extensively. I moved to Chicago in 2022 to start my studies and after moving away from home, I missed moving and dancing. I slowly found my way into a dance community, declared it as a second major, and then found Half Moon Yoga where I am now excited to give people their happy place and space to move.
