A Journey Through Tourism
I have been working in tourism for over 15 years, and my passion lies in meeting and connecting with new people from all over the world. My diverse experiences range from waitressing and receptionist roles to being an entertainer, dancer, dance teacher, and Scuba Instructor. Each position has allowed me to share unique experiences, especially those immersed in nature, bringing joy to others.
Falling in Love with Freediving
About four years ago, I discovered freediving and instantly fell in love. The freedom of moving underwater, the profound silence, and the intimate connection with nature offer a completely different experience compared to scuba diving. After years as a Scuba Instructor, transitioning to freediving instruction felt seamless. I simply exchanged the scuba tank for the power of my lungs.
Learning Through Play
In my teaching, I’ve found that when we play, we learn much more easily. This playful approach has been instrumental in my success as an instructor.
The Birth of Karibbean Mermaids
The inception of Karibbean Mermaids happened during a playful moment with a monofin in a stunning cenote with crystal-clear waters. While using a competition monofin, I began to dance—yes, underwater dance! This magical experience inspired me to delve deeper into the world of mermaids, monofins, and tails.
Collecting the Essentials
Gathering all the necessary equipment for mermaiding was not an easy task, but providing the opportunity for others to feel free, gorgeous, and feminine underwater made it all worthwhile. Witnessing my clients’ inner children emerge in the water, with their shining faces reflecting sheer joy, is my definition of happiness.
Becoming an Official Mermaid Instructor
After offering the Mermaid Experience for some time, the SSI (Scuba Schools International) launched an entire Mermaid program, allowing me to become an official Mermaid Instructor. The experiences I was already providing closely aligned with the SSI Mermaid Certification, making the transition smooth.
