Maria Alda Gomez-Otero
Maria Alda Gomez-Otero is a passionate energy psychotherapist with a deep love for dance and movement. As a certified Dance of Awareness facilitator, she has led numerous DoA classes, which ultimately inspired her to create Dance Your Life (DYL). Combining her expertise in energy healing techniques, her experience of transformation through dance, and modern scientific theories, DYL offers a playful and safe space for transformative experiences. Alda firmly believes that these powerful tools can profoundly impact one's energy levels, creating a ripple effect that transforms not only individuals but also their communities and the world at large.
Alda's dance is infused with the wisdom of Eastern practices, as she is also a dedicated tai chi and qigong instructor and practitioner. Originally from Spain and having lived in various countries, she is fluent in Spanish, English, and French, and can comfortably hold a conversation in Portuguese. When she isn't empowering others through therapy or dance, Alda loves to unleash her creativity in the kitchen, preparing delicious meals to share with her family and friends. With her husband and beloved cat as companions, Alda resides in the picturesque coastal town of Teignmouth, where she continues to inspire and transform lives through the power of dance and healing.
