Overlooking the mystical lake and volcanic skyline that are such a big part of the magic of Lake Atitlan, Arco Isis offers a safe space to explore, move, dance, and find new tools to navigate the inner-world. The vibrant energy of Lake Atitlan draws visitors from all over the world.
Guatemala was the birthplace of Breath Body Earth Yoga School and our home for many years. It is only natural that we continue to honour this connection by inviting students to experience the magic for themselves.

Why Study with Us?
We study the physical practice of yoga (asana) through Vinyasa and Hatha style appraoches.
​
About half of our time together will be spent learning about the physical practice of Yoga (Asana). We will have daily workshops where we break down each posture, learn how to spot and correct misalignment, and develop a healthy sense of the body from pose to pose. You will have plenty of time to develop your physical practice and explore new ways of moving.
​
Our approach to asana is somatic. This means we are far more concerned with the sensations of the pose, rather than the aesthetic. Instead of being goal-oriented, we are process-driven with no right or wrong, and a strong focus on the correct alignment for your body.
​
Our style of teaching has evolved from exposure to many talented and powerful teachers who have encouraged us to not only focus on the physical, but also to dive deep into philosophy and adapt it for modern day living.
The subtle, unexplainable, and mystical is important to us. We explore the body from both anatomical and energetic perspectives, spending time studying alignment, anatomy, the chakras, and the power of the breath.
​
Your development is important to us and we want to support you by offering 1-1 mentorships for our students after the course to help you realise your goals and support you in creating long-lasting change.

Hard to describe with words.
The 200h Yoga Teacher Training with Breath Body and Earth was one of the best things I ever did. I recommend everybody who wants to dive into the subject of Yoga to go in this Journey with Melissa and Rachel.
21 days of knowledge, love, singing, friendship and discovering yourself.
If you hear a calling, follow it!
