Understanding how different stellar populations evolve in different regions is a key to understand the evolution of galaxies. Traditionally the kinematics and stellar populations in galaxies have been obtained separately and unrelatedly, sometimes ignoring the other one. In this pilot study we simultaneously disentangle the stellar populations (characterizing their age and metallicity) and associate them with the stellar kinematics (velocity and velocity dispersion) in the bulge of three very different disc galaxies using high resolution IFS data.
