Overview
The Chestnut Paes Enneagram Academy was founded by Beatrice Chestnut, PhD (author of 'The Complete Enneagram') and Uranio Paes. Their program is distinguished by an unparalleled depth of teaching on the 27 subtypes — the intersection of each Enneagram type with the three instinctual drives.
