We live so much of our lives being guided by someone else or expecting that there is always an "expert" that will have all the answers. We give our power away to the media, the bosses, the gurus, the medical profession, the political system, even our parents and our partners. Through her presence and offerings, Yogini Kamadevi helps you reconnect, perhaps, with the most powerful skill and asset of all - your inner guidance and your intuition. She talks that a guru is someone who can help awaken the guru in others. She does it in a way that is subtle and life-changing at the same time. Working with Yogini Kamadevi is a journey of living an authentic, rich and juicy life open to our full potential.

Yogini Kamadevi, for me – lovingly, in my language – Carlunia, is above all a wonderful, colourful personality! Intelligence, strength, competence, knowledge, grace, and a sense of humor combined into one person. We met a few years ago in Goa, where I was running my own “Power Place” workshop with a large group from Poland and needed a second teacher to collaborate on this project. Kamadevi turned out to be a great partner and since then we have regularly run workshops for women together.
Kamadevi is constantly developing and perfecting her teaching skills but is also a unique masseuse with hands that can make real miracles happen. She is a devoted friend, a real sister who loves fun and can give support in difficult times, a person who shines with goodness but can also tell the uncomfortable truth candidly and directly. She expects a lot from herself and from others. She doesn't take the easy way out. She never lies. She has the guts. I value her tremendously.
Om Shanti.

I didn’t really know what to expect when having an intuitive massage with Kamadevi, it started with a lovely conversation and then she made me a beautifully intuitive essential blend which smelt just blissful. Kamadevi massaged my entire body and I could feel the energy coming through her, it was amazing. I went on a retreat the day after and had an amazing orgasmic awakening experience 4 days later. I can’t recommend her enough. So much love beautiful lady.

In summer 2018, Kamadevi arrived in Bab Zouina like a light feather. She spent one month
volunteering with us, organised yoga workshops with the Berber ladies of our village, taught
yoga to some individuals staying in our retreat centre and exchanged with myself, the owner, on our future yoga retreats and programmes. Having attended Kamadevi classes, I was really impressed by her creativity and the freshness of her teaching. She has a solid yoga practice and a deep understanding of its philosophy. She is very attentive to details, to the elements that are around us and to the energies conveyed by the moon, the sun, the stones and the nature as such; her approach is very holistic and very spiritual. As a nomad yogi she is able to address the various dimensions of a human person: body, soul, emotions and spirit.
Her beautiful smile and light nature makes her a very pleasant person to be with. I wish, you can come back for another month with your new horizons, may be for a Yoga and Art therapy retreat...

Kamadevi was invited as an angel (resource) to the Whispering Tribe retreat. She has done
an incredible job to give presentations on tantra in a simplified manner to our participants
who have very basic knowledge on the subject. She was also impeccable in supporting all
the retreat activities, from ecstatic dance to the yoga sessions. She was present at all times
and her positive energy was felt by all.
Ali Habaj, founder of Whispering Tribe, 2019
Kamadevi was my teacher during my YTT. She teaches with love and kindness, and she lives
what she teaches. The training was a great opportunity to deepen my knowledge in Yoga. In
the beginning, my main objective was to be able to lead my own practice. The experience
was so intense, I felt so confident to teach, that slowly as my friends and colleagues kept
requesting me for classes, I ended up taking the idea of teaching Yoga as part of my life.
Thank you so much for being part of my Yoga journey, for all the knowledge that you shared
from your heart and for being such an inspiration! Keep bringing your light to the world!
Namaste.

I had been practicing yoga on and off for a few years when I came across Yogini Kamadevi in
Zimbabwe in 2016 and practiced with her around 6 months. She was such an inspiration that
today, in 2020 I have continued my practice but haven’t found a guide like her. Her holistic
approach, experience and dedication – with attention to postures, breathing and meditation,
combined with how she personalized her guidance to bring depth as to where I was on my
journey make her a gem. After a class with her I felt as if I’d taken a mental shower, I was at
peace. The world needs Kamadevi Carla. I hope our paths cross again. She was very young
when I met her so I hope to grow old to witness her unleash all her potential and to see an
even greater teacher with time.

Kamadevi Carla Zurcher was gracious enough to share her positive vibes and precious time
at the prestigious Eddésands resort. It was a pleasure to meet her and delve into her unique
intuitive massage; it sweeps and clears one's aura from negative energy and congestion,
relieves muscular pain and improves circulation... It was a wonderful experience and we can't
wait to repeat it!

I had a beautiful intuitive massage session with Yogini Kamadevi. I arrived feeling exhausted,
confused and searching for some clarity in my life. Our time together definitely gave me the
‘aha’ moment that was needed, as well as a deeply nurturing, relaxing and releasing massage.
Looking forward to seeing you again in Guernsey and having more sessions together. Thank
you.
Lucia Faith, founder of Healing Hands, Guernsey
Thank you very much Kamadevi for my beautiful intuitive massage treatment today. I went
twice and I really enjoyed it. First of all when the therapist has such a positive aura it can only
be for the sake of wellbeing. I love body massage and this one was extraordinary. It felt like
a mixture from different styles, soft, strong, partly Thai and it works on your chakras and at
times deep breathing. Before the bodywork began I shared my physical problems and also
what is on my mind, so the massage includes the body and mind therefore a mindful
approach and deeply resourcing massage, you feel absolutely relaxed afterwards. The
calming essential oils make you even fall into deep relaxation.... Thank you very much I can
only highly recommend it to everybody.

During the winter of 2017-2018 I spent a month in Goa, India. I’d travelled by myself for an
exploratory adventure...I didn’t exactly know what I would find or what to expect. I was
referred to Kamadevi by another traveller who recommended I see “this amazing woman for
an intuitive massage”. And so I was introduced to Kamadevi. During the course of my month
long stay in India I found myself being drawn to Kamadevi. I started to receive regular
massage from her and often took yoga instruction from her in small groups. The vastness of
her knowledge both surprised and awakened me to a realm of living I’d not previously
experienced, nor knew much about. I wanted more of what she offered, more of what she
embodied.
I asked Kamadevi to provide a working session with me one day to identify ways in which I
could improve upon my yogic journey. I’m not sure I even knew what that meant at the time.
I thought, in part, that when finished I’d be able to hold tree pose flawlessly while
transcending earthly constraints using the vision from my newly identified third eye vision. To
this day my tree pose is still wobbly, but my third eye has been awakened and I am able to
journey into the universe with some ease and on a fairly regular basis. And that ability started
with my work with Kamadevi.
It is hard to explain in my limited language of chakras, asanas, and the 8 limbs of yoga what
occurred during my time with Kamadevi, but I can say this: her true nature is sublime. Her
connection with the One is evident. Her intuitive knowledge is used for the good of self and
others, and she has a passion within to share that knowledge. I could say I learned about
yoga, chakras, and myself, but I learned so much more. I learned the Universe will support
me, God is everywhere and that no matter what happens to me in this world I will be cared
for. Perhaps an even bigger surprise is that these lessons planted within me during my work
with Kamadevi have not faded, but have continued to grow and morph into greater depth
and understanding. And that feels like the work and service of a spirit that I am so very grateful
to have found myself aligned with.
On the more practical side Kamadevi provided me with a written follow up that contained
suggestions for practices to continue my journey. I remain in contact with her and I look
forward to the day when our paths cross once more, so I can again not only reap the benefits
of her years of practice and enlightenment, but also just to spend time in her exquisite
presence.
Barbara Covert, Goa
I truly benefited and felt connected during this women's retreat, focused on The Feminine
SHAKTI Within The Yoga Practice. Kamadevi is an amazing yoga teacher and spiritual guru.
A beautiful person in every possible way. She holds a safe space which brings meaningfulness
and joy to the atmosphere.
Aleksandra Gajda, Poland 2017
My yoga teacher recommended Kamadevi to me. I was supported in a conscious reflection
process via dialogue, Intuitive Massage and embodiment practices, to integrate personal
healing and affirmations. Leaving my mind and body completely still and with the sense of
being grounded and elevated at the same time. To me an experience previously
unmatched. Kamadevi has a mild and strong presence, she manages to be respectful and
close at the same time. I highly recommend her.
Gro Fersnes, Norway
My journey with Kamadevi Carla in understanding how to align the seven chakras through
the practice of Hatha Yoga provided me with a gentle broom with which I began to sweep
away the cobwebs of emotions and life’s experiences that had settled for many years in my
body and soul. Through the knowledge imparted and the yoga practice of each session, my
body began to shift and shape itself into a stronger, quieter, lighter vessel enabling my
authentic spirit to emerge and to begin to settle in. I am becoming more at ease and for this
I am extremely grateful.
The seven-part Chakra series gave me an amazing gift – the understanding that I hold the
magical power to clear the pathway to my soul. At any time, through the practice of yoga
and meditation, I can take my gentle broom and sweep away the emotions, experiences,
beliefs and habits that send my soul hiding for cover. I now understand that it is never too
late to truly become me.
Pat Made, founder of genderlinks.org.za, Zimbabwe, 2016
I recently experienced a series of 6 massages with Carla. Initially instigated by some sciatic
nerve pain and a deep discomfort in the glutes. Carla’s deep mindful whole body treatment
led us to some interesting discoveries along the way and eventually to some emotional
realizations which led to a letting go of the cause, and hence the symptoms of the problem
disappeared too.
The treatment also led to deep relaxation and relieving of stress which left me with a softer
more flexible body and persona. If you have the opportunity... book yourself a massage with
her as soon as possible.
Richard John, founder of Lotus Yoga Zimbabwe
Carla’s classes are both restorative and energizing. She has a lovely, gentle presence and is
positive and encouraging. She’s also very knowledgeable and experienced and can easily
adapt her teaching to the level and wishes of the students. Whether you are looking for a
gentle way into yoga or a nice complement to an existing yoga practice, you can’t go wrong
with Carla.
Melanie Khanna UNHCR, Geneva, 2013
I sincerely appreciated a lot your evening classes at UNHCR in 2012-2013 winter, your
professionalism and competences both in teaching and in performing the postures is quite
impressive! It was an ideal class for me, and I enjoyed particularly your careful eye to each
class participant’s practice, your calm, your natural and spontaneous ways combined with
wisdom.
Manuela Raffoni UNHCR, Geneva, 2013
