བཾ་ཧ་རི་ནི་ས།

Paulina Dämmrich is a silk dancer, tantric yogini, choreographer, designer and sound artist based in Mexico. In her work she explores spaces of healing through art, movement, breath, sound and fashion.

Once an international private equity lawyer, Paulina experienced consequences of living under chronic stress and a transition of “unplugging” from corporate matrix.

Her current work and passion is dedicated to contributing to a more artful, truthful, blissful  and compassionate world by inspiring others in their search for a more fulfilling and abundant life through tantric mind-body wisdom and art.

Directing all her energy to the medicine of artistic expression, dance, beauty and sound has become a meditation that transformed her life. She is endlessly grateful for the abundance of being blessed with doing what she loves.

Outside of her studio, you will find her horse riding, boxing or playing with her son by the ocean; sharing good laughs, soundscapes and slow food with soul family, catching waves somewhere off the beaten path. 

For the benefit of all sentient beings.
