  • Teacher + Facilitator

    It is my joy and passion to share the practice of yoga. Knowing how much it goes beyond the physical practice, I am fortunate to witness how it can change lives, just as it has changed mine.

    Flow freely, live fully

 

Hi, I’m Emily Eileen—yoga teacher, mentor, retreat leader, and founder of Flowee.

I created Flowee as a space to move more freely, feel more deeply, and live in alignment. My teaching is rooted in presence and curiosity, with a focus on soulful movement and real connection—both within ourselves and with each other.

I’ve been teaching yoga since 2016, and over the years, I’ve guided retreats and teacher trainings across the globe. But Guatemala has a special place in my heart. There’s something about the energy here—so alive, yet grounding—that mirrors everything this retreat is about.

In my classes, you can expect creative flow, breath-led movement, and space to explore at your own pace. I’m not here to “fix” you or tell you what something should look like—my role is to hold space for your experience, your rhythm, and your own unfolding.

When I’m not teaching, you’ll usually find me surfing, hiking, playing my harmonium, or sipping coffee in the sunshine. I also love time with family at home in Canada, and quiet mornings with a journal and lake view.

Wherever we are, my hope is the same: that this practice helps you feel more at home in your body, more connected to your truth, and more free to live fully—whatever that looks like for you.

How to get there:

Movement Travel suggests to fly into Guatemala City (GUA) and transport will be arranged by the retreat centre for you from there. The retreat centre is about a 3.5 hour drive from the airport followed by a short (10 minute) boat ride from Panajachel to the private Villa Sumaya dock.

Depending on your flight time, it may be better to fly in on March 20th and stay overnight in Guatemala City. We can recommend hotels and will arrange transport to the retreat centre for the following day.
