Advanced Holistic Shamanic Practitioner Apprenticeship Program
This program is open only for those who have completed at least level one of the Holistic Shamanic Practitioner Course. This course is suitable for those who have completed level one or level 2 (including Year of Sacred Ceremony).
This one year (12-month) program begins January 10, 2026; and will run on the second Saturday of the month, from 10-5 through December, 2026. The course will be offered in a HYBRID format both on Zoom and in person, with recordings provided of each class, along with handouts and other materials as needed. While recordings will always be available, it is strongly recommended to attend as many classes as possible either in person or live on Zoom to get the most out of the program.
There will also be video teachings (not just the class recordings), practice sessions and an additional evening monthly Zoom call to go over questions and answers about teachings and practice work between classes.
This course is for those who want to deepen their practice, review important teachings, learn important new practices, and work with like-minded community for real-world application of these sacred tools and teachings.
Each month we will work with a relevant seasonal/astrological theme, current community and world events, and practice personal and group Shamanic and Andean healing techniques, ceremonies and rituals that support creating positive transformation and healing, and give you greater spiritual support and empowerment, build your skills and confidence working with Shamanic tools and techniques, while being of service to others and the earth.
We will continue incorporating teachings from the Q'ero Tribe, the Andean traditions, Core Shamanism, and Western Metaphysical teachings to strengthen and support your own personal empowerment, healing, life force and vitality, and forge a deeper connection to our Guides and Helping Spirits, and give you greater confidence and more tools for working with your own clients and groups.
It is a wonderful opportunity to expand your gifts as a Shamanic Practitioner to empower and heal yourself, your ancestral lineages, families and serve your community.
Course teachings and content will include:
- Practice Despacho Ceremonies for different themes and purposes and work more deeply with the Mesa; deepen your connection even more with Mother Earth/Pachamama
- Work closely with the elements, seasons and astrological calendar to feel more in the flow of earth-based and cosmic energies
- Work with various themes to support personal and collective healing such as the Witches/Healer's wound, Sacred feminine/masculine balance, healing the Inner Child, healing the Heart and Grief, working with Death & Dying from a Shamanic perspective and more...
- Perform various healing techniques and ceremony to help heal and clear your own Ancestral patterns, hucha, curses, trauma, toxicity, and to help support healthy and harmonious relationships with relatives and Ancestors both alive and in spirit.
- Incorporate the beautiful work of safely supporting souls crossing over into the Spirit world at the time of death, through Psychopomp work in areas such as hospitals, nursing homes, animal hospitals, funeral homes, etc. where spirits can often get "stuck."
- Learn to help create more positive energy flow in such locations and how to help transmute some of the hucha including grief and pain that can "gather" in these places. We will also discuss/review how to support loved ones getting ready to cross over.
- Work with hands-on practices and ways to create protection and energetic boundaries around yourself, your work space and your home, and to cleanse and protect from discordant energy.
