About the Teacher
Why study with them?
We have been working with Paola for over 10 years at The Seed. She has wonderful talent and knowledge in ceremony, Ayurveda, yoga and healing massage (plus much more).
Paola grew up in Mexico and was introduced to Temazcal practice as a teenager. Later, she studied nutrition and became interested in learning different healing tools to support the health and happiness of people and the planet.
After she graduated as a nutritionist, she traveled to India and Nepal, where she gathered knowledge of Ayurvedic nutrition and massage. While in India, she practiced classical Indian flute, yoga and trained in Ayurvedic massage.
After spending a year in Asia, she came to Guatemala. At Lake Atitlan, Paola could finally put into practice all the knowledge she had gathered. She has been living on the mountainside outside San Marcos for 16 years, developing an ecological home and way of living.
Practicing and teaching yoga to people from all over the world who come to this magical lake to heal and find their true nature, she started offering her services at Villa Sumaya as a yoga teacher and massage therapist and found her biggest gift as a space holder for cacao and Temazcal ceremonies.
