Meet the Surya World Team

Manon Mazenod
Manon’s goal is to become a better person every day and to cultivate peace and love. She started yoga with Surya in October 2018, then looking to develop a wellness practice to be more balanced. She immediately appreciated the holistic, profound and simple approach offered by Surya and observed the benefits of the different disciplines offered.
Although Manon has moved to Sherbrooke in May 2019, she has continued an almost daily personal practice keeping the link with Surya-Montréal. It was when Karla Alvarez Quintanar, co-founder of Surya, came to Montreal for an ayurveda training course that Manon was inspired to take the yoga teacher training program.
Her first motivation for taking the yoga teacher training course was personal: better connection and knowledge of herself and her body, better balance of life and emotions, etc., then secondly, she wanted to enable others to feel good and develop through this practice.
Very curious about spirituality, she wants to build bridges and explore the common ground between the different spiritualities and traditions of our world: Eastern, Aboriginal, Christian, etc., in order to understand what unites human beings. Manon wants to share her experience, her kindness, the simplicity of life and her love for people and nature.
