Also known as Dhyana Danceleg (born in Colombia, based in Berlin), she has been a big lover of music and dance since her early childhood. Soon she would discover the night life and the joy of dancing for long hours in the clubs, disappearing in the dance and loud beats. Already in Berlin she encountered the OSHO active meditations, which use dance as a way to stillness and silence. She discovered a totally new approach to movement: dance with totality and awareness as a doorway to herself, as the fastest path to her feelings, as a form of unity with the whole. Dance plays a main roll in her life as it fills her with joy and opens a space for her to relax.

Dance has always been very important in Kabiro´s life. Her father owned one of the very first discotheques in Spain and from an early age and through her own body she learned how free and total dance can be of great benefit for the soul.

Later on in life she engaged deeply in other forms of dance, becoming an oriental dance teacher and a very keen practitioner of 5 Rhythms, Authentic Movement, Rio Abierto and Ecstatic Dance.

She is a certified breath worker, bodyworker and art therapist, as well as a producer for fashion films.

A Dance Movement Psychotherapy student at Goldsmiths, Iona realises the transformative power of dance, a way of strengthening the mind-body connection. A huge fan of Ecstatic Dance and 5 Rhythms, she sees conscious dance form as a path to freedom, joy, feeling alive and whole, being connected to yourself and others. She has completed her Training with Ecstatic Dance International and runs Ecstatic Dance events in London.
