About us

About us

From danza circles beneath desert skies to boardrooms transforming culture—I walk between worlds. Flor y Canto Academy was born from a knowing: that movement is medicine, story is power, and leadership must be sacred.

As the founder of Flor y Canto Academy, LLC Consulting and creator of FYCA Sacred Movement, I bring over 25 years of experience in People & Culture, workplace civility, leadership coaching, and organizational development. I support leaders of color and purpose-driven organizations with strategies rooted in psychological safety, integrity, and compassion. Through FYCA Sacred Movement, I also guide community in a ceremonial practice that fuses Aztec danza, yoga, and mindful movement with Toltec wisdom and meditations—an embodied path of healing, self-awareness, and ancestral remembrance.
