Consciousness.
This prophesized time in history represents a powerful ending of a
predicted cycle.
Our scientists have discovered an increase in solar flare activity
from our sun, affecting our physical and emotional bodies as well as
the electromagnetic field of our planet.
Our Indigenous People believe that with the ending of an old cycle, a new world will be born.
This is a special time for those who choose to create a cycle of
global peace, love and harmony to join together.   Reaffirming and
Reestabishing unity with our individual lives, with others and the
earth as a global community sharing in an open hearted experience, seeing ourselves as One with all that exists.
If you feel inspired to join together with like minded hearts and
souls, we would love to share in ceremony with you following in the

 Both Dulce and Katjusa received their training from the ‘National Chinese Circus School in Beijing’, where they originally met and performed. 
Come have fun and enjoy this unique mix of European and Mexican styles that also incorporates Chinese Fundamentals.
Who is Dulce Chavez?
Dulce is a talented 28 years old, who has been performing circus skills for more than 9 years all over the World.
Dulce started to develop her circus skills in Mexico practicing and performing with different fire toys. She travelled to Europe with her company, ‘Eyetrick’ during the summers to present shows in many countries like Spain, Italy, Croatia, Turkey, Greece, Austria, Germany, Holland, Hungary, France and Switzerland. Here she learned acrobatics at the juggling conventions and festivals with other International artists. This motivated her to reach to a higher artistic and professional level.  She travelled to China and went to the ‘Beijing International Arts School’ and studied with ‘The National Chinese Circus Troop’ for 3 years. There she learned partner acrobatics, aerial acrobatics and Chinese juggling. Following her education, Dulce was selected to perform in a circus in south China in 2008 and a slovenian circus in 2009 with a solo aerial act.
During this time Dulce continued to perform in Hong Kong, Macau, Shanghai, Beijing, Kunming, Chengdu, Batou and throughout Europe with her company. She won several awards for best show while Touring Europe.
Last year Dulce chose Todos Santos as a home base. She is working as a solo performer under the name ‘AMAYA’ producing her new cabaret show which will be presented again this summer in Austria.
In the meantime she performs around the area in la Paz, Todos Santos and Cabo, holding circus Workshops for kids and adults bringing a new cultural activity to the region.
Dulce belives that: “The better you know how your body works, the better you know how the universe works and this knowledge never ends…”.



Who is Katjusa Kovacic?
KATJUŠA KOVAČIČ je končala šolo akrobatike v Pekingu na Kitajskem. Kot aktivna  capoeiristka združuje virtuoznost giba z uporabnostjo, ter išče nove izrazne možnosti akrobatike v gledališču in plesu.
We are in the process of translating Katjusa’s resume from Slavic.  IN the meantime checkout some of her work in these videos:
