Becoming a Kambo practitioner is a big choice and tremendous responsibility. We are here to ensure you receive the most comprehensive, transformative and scientifically-supported training that exists.
Finally. A not-so "basic" Kambo practitioner Training program
In a world where alternative medicine is exploding and any person can buy materials off the internet and claim to be a practitioner, there’s more importance than ever for practitioners to set a standard in ethics, safety, care and formal training. If you are concerned with the recklessness, negligence and hype that have become all too common in the medicine space, and wish to do it right, this training is for you.
Kambo is a powerful tool and stepping into a practitioner role must be taken very seriously. This training is an invitation for those who choose a true path of integrity with Kambo. Those who understand the depths that must be reached to truly know a medicine. Those who understand that humility is an endless well of wisdom. Those who desire to authentically be in service with grace and set the Ego aside. This training is for the one’s who truly will strive to become a master at their craft and will not take shortcuts or accept mediocrity.
