Founder & Organizer

Paola K. Wong is an artist, medicine woman, Labor and Delivery RN, and space holder devoted to awakening the divine feminine. Rooted in her Swiss Helvetic and Haitian Taino ancestry, she weaves ceremony, song, womb movement, and ancestral earth wisdom into every space she holds. On this journey, Paola leads both an Oshun ceremony on the Nile and a Yemaya ceremony by the sea, drawing from the Afro Cuban and Haitian traditions that are at the heart of her practice. She has been leading transformational journeys to Egypt since 2021 and will be with you every step of this pilgrimage, holding the container with care, presence, and deep reverence for the land and for each soul who answers the call.

Shereen

Yoga & Inner Peace Facilitator

Yoga is the soul’s reset button—an essential return to the stillness within.

Born in Cairo, Shereen answered a powerful calling to return to her roots after 22 years in Montreal. Trading the hustle for the ancient frequency of her homeland, she facilitates a return to Being through the sacred energy of Egypt.

​A dedicated practitioner since age 22, she teaches that the mat is a mirror for life. Her practice centers on Yoga Chitta Vritti Nirodha—silencing mental chatter to reclaim inner guidance. In Egypt, yoga is infused with a unique magic; from the banks of the Nile to the majestic temples of Luxor and Aswan, the practice is elevated by the profound history of the ancestors who walked these lands. By bridging movement with the magnificent energy of this magical land that we call “the mother of the world,” she helps students press reset, clear the viruses of the mind, and land in their own safe harbor.
