About the founder Cristina
As a parent, you always want to make the right choice for your child. That is why I would like to share my story with you. I am a mother of two children, and the common thread in my life has always been music, together with a huge passion for pedagogy and guiding children.
When I was a child, from the age of ten, I studied at the Conservatory and I also chose Classical Ballet. A few years later, combining both became a real challenge, so I decided to continue only with the violin. That is how, at thirteen, I was already giving and organising all kinds of performances: I became director of my own children's chamber orchestra. We performed, among others, at Christmas concerts in the great auditorium of Cáceres, Spain (my birthplace). During my studies, until I was twenty, I also attended the Hermanos Berzosa Conservatory (Cáceres).
For four years, every weekend, I guided children aged 5, 6 and 7 with the Al-kazires scout group, and also at all summer camps. When I finished secondary school, I continued with music in Oviedo (Asturias), 800 kilometres from my hometown. At the Eduardo Martínez Tórner Superior Conservatory I obtained my diploma.
I am proud that I also played in the educational orchestra of Sama de Langreo in Asturias (Spain). Among others, we performed Disney music, together with actors, for children, on tour for Spanish television.
Combining music and children gives me so much joy and satisfaction, hence the founding of Native Child. We warmly invite all children (and their parents) to come and experience this with us!
