She is the promoter of the B’atz Circus School project in the city of Guatemala.

Choreographer of the graduation show of the National Circus School of Río de Janeiro.
Currently, she is researching and creating the Ajpu Circus project with the companionship of the Eia circus company.

School Josep Comas i Solà
www.inscomasisola.catThe Comas i Solà school, where to date the creation processes of Erick Beltrán and Mireia C. Saladrigues, Daniela Ortiz, Jeleton, Toni Mira, Anna Pantinat, Constanza Brnčić and Troposfera.xyz, have been developed, takes part for the eighth time in iN RESiDENCE, and is done with a group of students from 4th of ESO.
/
The Institut Comas i Solà (Trinitat Vella, Sant Andreu) was created in 1990 in response to pressure from residents keen to ensure that local youngsters did not have to travel to other neighbourhoods in order to pursue their secondary education. The centre is named after Josep Comas i Solà, an astronomer who popularised science and promoted modern astronomy in Catalonia and was also the director of the Fabra Observatory.
