Rocio Roman Porcayo

November 19, 2021 by Brandi Hand

Operations Manager

Rocio hails from Morelos, Mexico… one of 12 children in the small agricultural town of Temixco. She was born with a natural curiosity for nature, exploring, adventure, and a passion for cooking that took hold at just 9-years-old.
Her love for biology; intuition within the healing arts and a thirst for sciences led Rocio to the School of Medicine in Mexico City and subsequently to the School of Dentistry where she graduated in 1997. Since moving to Zihuatanejo 21 years ago, Rocio has transformed the lives of hundreds of delighted patients through her brilliant Oral Care practice. She loves gardening, dancing, cooking, farmers markets, and transforming Mother Nature’s elements into beautiful, delicious, and nutritious cuisine. As a tree hugger, environmental protector, and future nutritional coach, Rocio strives to make certain that the footprints she leaves only serve to harmonize this earth. Many of her most treasured moments find Rocio surrounded by family and friends… celebrating life with her usual grace and gratitude.

Vicki has always had a passion for movement and exercise. She began running early in life and was active in many sports. This led her to study Exercise Physiology and Movement studies at University of Wisconsin, LaCrosse. Vicki began teaching group fitness classes in college to share her passion with others.

Post graduation, Vicki moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota and worked in Cardiac Rehab. She began studying different movement modalities and teaching at various fitness facilities. This eventually led her to work as a studio manager at a Pilates studio in Minneapolis, where she worked for over 8 years.

Vicki completed  a 450 hour Pilates certification in 2011 from Align Pilates in Minneapolis, MN and in 2015 a 200 hour Yoga certification from the Yoga Center of Minneapolis. Also in 2015, Vicki was certified in Yin Yoga with the Yoga Center of Minneapolis. She has studied various forms of body work and Reiki as well. She enjoys guiding students through all levels of Vinyasa, Yin and Restorative classes. There is always an emphasize on trusting one’s own body and moving with focus and intention. She brings a gentle, welcoming spirit to everyone.

EMILIANO LAUREL

August 25, 2021 by Brandi Hand

Emiliano was born in Zihuatanejo. He began working in a local yoga studio; quickly fell in love with the practice and within 4 years he became certified in Quintana Roo as a Vinyasa Yoga teacher.

Emiliano has always been curious about the relationship between the mind and how it can affect the physical body. Having been trained in physical theater and contemporary dance, Emiliano integrates the combination of yoga asana and body movement thus creating vigorous, energetic classes adaptable to any level of yoga practice.

Emiliano sees the physical practice of yoga as a dance/movement meditation in which you can find inner peace, harmony, and personal awareness. His classes at Present Moment Retreat are super popular and held in the highest regard.
