About Alexandra Ruiz
Alexandra Ruiz, known as Ale, was born and raised in Mexico. For more than ten years she taught AcroYoga internationally before turning her focus to Thai massage and aquatic therapies. Her teaching combines Thai massage fused with osteopathy, Wuo Tai, Breema, Indigenous knowledge, and cloth techniques using the Mexican rebozo and the Thai pha khao ma, as well as several forms of aquatic bodywork. Her workshops cover static and dynamic Thai massage, Sacred Dance and OsteoDance, and she describes her teaching as principle-based, working with the body's own intelligence so that giver and receiver can practise with ease. She founded the Chalananda Retreat Center in Mexico and the Ways of Water Aquatic School. She teaches internationally, including the Woven Wisdom training on rebozo, pha khao ma and Osteothai with Oliver Chamorro, and at the Thai Massage Sangha Festival in Spain.
