MARCELA

In Mexico because of the pandemic crise the economic situation which is collapsing day by day, many have had to find an alternative to make ends meet during the containment.
Marcela 29 years, is one of them. She is a dancer and has a pole dance academy (Fitness, pole dance and twerk…) in Cuidad Satellite near the capital of Mexico. From the start of her forties, she had to close her studio and start teaching online. Single mother Marcela, has to juggle between her work and home school for these two little girls of 8 and 5 years old. Among other things, the context of COVID, its profile remains very atypical, far from the stereotypes of the stripper or the traditional housewife.

At the end of June 2020, the Covid-19 crisis started to decrease and Mexico passed the orange light stage, so Marcela was able to start to partially reopen its dance academy by giving a few lessons per week while respecting health security measures.
