OUR TAITA/SHAMAN come from Putumayo region of Colombia amazon where they grow and cook their own Ayahuasca.
Having Taitas from same family and same tradition allows us to provide consistent experience and high quality healing.

Taita Fernando Jojoa is very experienced, he has been a Taita (shaman) for 12 years now.
He started his training at 7 years old, drinking medicine 3 times a week for 10 years straight.

He is a humble gentle man though a force to be reckoned with in his spiritual work within the ceremony, he is accessible within ceremony and outside ceremony for advice and guidance with one of our team available to translate when needed to help integrate these profound experiences. . It is a truly authentic experience.

OUR CEREMONIES
Our ceremonies take place over 3 night and 1 daytime ceremonies, which are very grateful to deliver. Daytime ceremonies are rare within this space as some Taitas lack the proficiency or willingness to contain this spiritual space. We find this combination of day and nighttime ceremonies to be unique and extremely beneficial in the process during the week.

During ceremonies, we have the Taita curating the ceremony, while our facilitators and support team consisting of no less than 1 team member per 5 guests will be there to assist, guide and support you throughout the process. Safety and security is paramount to us ensuring all our guests receive the absolute best experience.

Nights will begin around 6pm where the first cup will be offered. You will then return to your personal position within the ceremonial space containing a mattress, blankets, pillow, and of course a bucket to sit with the medicine and allow the work and magic to begin. You can spend your whole night there or if you feel the calling warmly sit beside our ceremonial fire. Music is delivered throughout the ceremony, with live medicine music and Taitas personal medicine work guiding you throughout the experience. a 2nd and sometimes 3rd cup will be offered throughout the night depending on what is required. With our ceremonies ending between 1-2AM where you can stay sleeping on your ceremonial mattress or retire to your room.

Days will begin between 7am-9am where the first cup will be offered and follow a similar format as above, the difference being the ceremonial space is slightly expanded and if you feel the calling within ceremony you have the ability to be amongst the beautiful plants, trees views, and vibrant nature while still being under the special care of our team. The ceremony will generally come to end between 1pm and 3pm upon which a nutritious lunch will be served.

OUR TEAM
