Currently he is studying sign language direction in Santiago Vazquez’s vocal ensemble.

Since 2004 he is devoted to teaching. In 2012 he began to facilitate and coordinate improvisation and creative flow workshops and researched groups through singing and movement. Since 2014 he works with Daniel Oil (teacher and therapist in coaching and NLP) giving regular workshops within the country and abroad, combining music with NLP.
