Ana Mendez
Ki Collective Retreat Co-Director
Ana Mendez is a passionate spiritual practitioner who founded Fire and Spirit in 2019 to share Reiki and Intuitive Reading with others. It has been her mission to create a safe and nurturing environment where people can discover and develop their own unique gifts through healing and self-exploration.
Ana is also a licensed Zumba and Zumba Gold instructor and has been dancing to the beat of her own drum for as long as she can remember. Having lived in a larger body for most of her life, Ana has learned and encourages the use of modification of movement through self-awareness and mindful activities, such as "Dance in Resonance", that honor and support the body you are in. She is a lifelong learner who is always seeking to improve her skills and is currently pursuing certification in somatic healing, mindfulness coaching, and yoga teacher training.
Ana's aspirations of offering immersive retreat experiences to the community has manifested into what is now known as Ki Collective - a shared vision with Jennifer Mellin. Ana is incredibly grateful to be able to work with such a talented, genuine, and compassionate community of healing, intuitive, and intentional practitioners who wholeheartedly share their gifts with us.
