Enlightened Education Team

Antiel’s Bio

I was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. From a young age I wasn’t content with an ordinary life and knew that I wanted something bigger for myself. I became really determined to create a healthy mindset and cultivate self-discipline. I was focused on non-stop physical training and overcoming challenges to develop a strong character. Even if in this period I felt a strong connection with God and was focused on acting righteously, I didn’t have a spiritual path or mentor.

During my last school year I lost purpose and I started to distract myself and lead a superficial lifestyle to fill my inner void. I was not being myself, which led to many hard experiences and health problems. After a crucial event, I decided to take command over my life again. I began to feel more fulfilled, but I still felt like something was missing. A voice in my head kept telling me to travel to the Dominican Republic to visit my Mother/Guru. That trip changed the course of my life – I could align with my real purpose and discover my highest calling.

I now have higher goals and a renewed sense of faith. I am committed to becoming the highest version of myself and receiving more spiritual training to be able to share the keys of inner transformation that can help people connect with God and reveal their divine purpose.

Kiron’s Bio

Born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina, I was a calm child deeply grounded in close friendships and sports. Physical discipline became one of the main pillars of my personal growth from an early age. I was also naturally drawn to the deeper truths of existence, which led me to study physics in search of a greater understanding of the universe and the nature of reality. My father, Yantal, is one of the founders of Enlightened Education, so I grew up witnessing his spiritual journey and practices, although my own focus remained centered on mastering the body, mind, and emotions.

For many years, I lived through the lens of stoic philosophy, believing life was ultimately about discipline, resilience, and personal choice, without a deeper spiritual purpose. Everything shifted when I attended a three-week retreat in the Dominican Republic with Gaitana and Yantal. During that experience, I realized the spirit was a fourth pillar of human development and, equally important to train as the physical, mental, and emotional bodies.

Today, my spiritual path is one of surrender and disciplined practice. I have come to understand the importance of guidance and community, recognizing that the spiritual journey is not meant to be walked alone. Within the Enlightened Education community, I now serve not only through my own inner work, but also as a Team Leader, helping expand our collective mission of bringing light, awareness, and connection to all who seek it.

Swanah’s Bio

Born in Wales, I always had a passion for writing and storytelling. Early in life, I dedicated myself to journalism, focused on uncovering the truth and connecting with people through heartfelt stories and real-life experiences. I was driven to explore the core of human experiences, offering a platform for voices to be heard. However, over time, I felt a deeper calling — one that led me to explore inner transformation. This journey brought me to energy work, crystal therapy, and meditation as I sought wisdom and a greater understanding of myself.

My search eventually led me to the teachings of Gaitana Yantal and the Ascended Masters, whose guidance sparked profound shifts in my life. Through their wisdom, I accelerated my growth and found my place within the spiritual community. Stepping into the role of Life Mentor, I now guide others on their journeys of awakening. I continue to evolve, always seeking higher alignment with Source. It is an honor to walk alongside others, supporting them in discovering their inner light and truth. The journey is one of constant growth, and I am excited to serve as a guide for anyone ready to step into their fullest potential.

Ashaya’s Bio

I was born, raised and still live in Maryland, which is on the East Coast of the United States. I have a bachelor’s degree in business management, and I have worked for over forty years in Corporate America in Finance, Information Systems & Technology, and Human Resources roles. On the one-hand I thought that I had it all, a college degree, husband, child, family, friends, career, home, and luxuries – everything that I had ever dreamed of having. But on the other hand, I always felt that there was something more – something beyond my ever day life experiences. While on the material level everything seemed great, on the spiritual level my soul was longing for more depth, connection, and fulfillment.

I began exploring spirituality in my thirties. Over the years, I have participated in a wide variety of spiritual training classes – many more than I care to admit. While I was having fun, meeting people, and learning new things, I felt like I was moving on a horizontal path with no real end in sight. I met Gaitana & Yantal at Enlightened Education in 2023. Since then, I have taken every course that they have offered. Their guidance, curriculum and technologies launched me like a rocket onto a vertical path aligning me with my divine purpose/mission. Today, I am very active within the Enlightened Education community where I am a Temple Keeper, Newsletter Contributor, and Co-Facilitator of Monthly Retreats. I love working with the Ascended Masters and helping others who are new to the spiritual path.

Alhunha’s Bio

My journey with Gaitana Yantal began after exploring spiritual groups, workshops, training courses and mentorships – always searching, always sensing there was something deeper within me wanting to awaken. The moment I encountered GaitanaYantal’s work, I felt an undeniable resonance. It wasn’t just interest;  it was recognition. From that point forward, my path has been one of full immersion – a courageous deconstruction of everything I thought I was, to rediscover the truth of who I am. Through life-changing teachings, guidance and mentorship of the Ascended Masters, I began to experience profound inner awakening. Every day is a new beginning. My consciousness continues to expand and with it comes greater spiritual maturity, clarity and wisdom.

This is an auspicious Path of Light — a sacred journey of remembrance. A path that unfolds through many tests and initiations. To walk this path with a community, and receiving unwavering support and guidance from our spiritual mentors  Gaitana Yantal, is truly a joy and blessing. Together, we move forward in conscious service, anchoring light, supporting global awakening and contributing to the liberation, enlightenment and ascension unfolding in this emerging Golden Age. This is more than a journey – it is a homecoming to the Presence!

Qinna’s Bio

Born in Venezuela and raised in California, I followed a practical, achievement-driven path—studying accounting at Santa Clara University, earning my CPA, and completing an MBA with honors at USC. On paper, my life made perfect sense. Internally, however, I felt disconnected and quietly anxious, with a growing sense that there was more to life than “success” alone. That curiosity led me to explore the intersection of science and spirituality through HeartMath, meditation, breathwork, Ayurveda, and intuitive practices. A profound personal rupture moved spirituality from the sidelines—where it had been more of a hobby—into the center of my life.

Through the teachings of Gaitana Yantal, I began to understand my psychology more deeply and adopt practices that reshaped my nervous system regulation, emotional clarity, and inner alignment. Maturity revealed itself not as effort or accomplishment, but as embodied presence: meeting each moment with truth, peace, and awareness. Today, my work is grounded in a single living inquiry—how to move through life with clarity, presence, and inner harmony, no longer performing, but truly experiencing.

Seva’s Bio

Born and raised in San Francisco, California, I pursued a career in technology marketing/sales and a vocation skill-set of auto body/ mechanical restoration. On the professional side I earned a B.A. in Communications from Notre Dame de Namur University, while receiving ASE and iCar certification of trade. Being a husband and father of three daughters, I did my with best with the tools this world provided. Far from perfect, but always worked towards understanding by going through scenarios in my mind where I could have done better.

My wife, Qinna, was first to join this path of Enlightened Education years back. Over many months I watched and listened as she spoke about the teachings. More importantly, I saw the positive changes shaping within her and saw the benefit of the journey. At the end of 2024 I joined this community, eager to embrace the lessons to see where they would take me. A year later I see how much of my life leading up to this point was unobserved. I now work towards using my heart and the teachings as my guide. With the help of the Guru, Gaitana Yantal, I have a better understanding of self through transcendence that grows – and it is eager to be shared.
