Warriors of Light

an immersive training and initiation in Inca Shamanism

|

The Warriors of Light Training offers an in depth training in the workings of Inca Shamanism, as handed from Alberto Villoldo and the Qero Shamans to your course leads Esther and Debbie. The Qero Shamans still teach this ancient medicine in the Andean Mountains of Peru, where its practice has continued untouched throughout the centuries.

Training Overview

This immersive training is structured into four unique modules or 'Paths,' designed to unfold with continuous guidance, case studies, and self-work practice. Each Path is booked individually, allowing Shamans to progress at their own pace. For those seeking certification, completion of all four Paths within a two-year period is required to meet course standards.

Shamans are encouraged to continue their journey around the course and the medicine wheel. If you wish to embark on a second round, please note that different pricing applies—speak with your course elder for further details.

Upcoming Dates & Booking

Working with energy medicine bridges science and spirit, mind and soul, by enhancing your ability to connect, sense, and feel. This course is designed to help you refine and tap into deeper channels of energy, empowering you to work with both your personal healing and the healing of others.

As a Shaman, you aim to restore balance—within yourself, your community, and the natural and spiritual worlds around you. Every individual’s journey is unique. Within that journey, perceptions may be ingrained in our DNA but may not feel fully aligned with our true nature.

The journey often begins with self-healing, where we venture into the vortex where science and energy medicine meet. Learn to embrace the essence of an Earth Keeper, living with integrity and cultivating a healing ability that you can call upon for your own well-being, your family, and loved ones.

The Warriors of Light courses aim to illuminate the inner energy, guiding you to create a life of balance. Embrace Ayni—the sacred reciprocity—and step into the role of an Earth Keeper and Shaman Healer.
