18-months long training


This training is for those ready to walk the shamanic path, those who’ve felt the call, seen the signs, and are willing to step forward with an open heart and focused mind. Soul follows our powerful intention.

Throughout the journey, you’ll experience deep transformation, individually and as a group. You’ll uncover your true power, explore humility and responsibility, and dissolve limiting beliefs. Together, we’ll move through group dynamics and community processes that mirror real-life patterns. This is the beauty way.
Every practice requires cultivating awareness and self-mastery.
The shamanic way is one of direct revelation, empowering you to live with authenticity and purpose. The focus will be on working truly from the heart, gently holding what prevents us from doing so, and keeping the ego in check to prevent unauthentic work from harming our clients and the world at large. When we work ethically, everything the light ripples in the Web of Life.
You will have the opportunity to step into empowerment and take charge of your own life.

In the gatherings, we will cover the following topics:

Shamanic practitioner training

Soul Retrieval - mending the fragmented self

Anytime someone says I have never been the same since a certain event and they don’t mean this in a good way, soul loss has probably occurred.
Shamanism describes soul loss as occurring mainly through traumatic experiences. We will experience personal healing and exchanges to be well-versed in the practice. Soul loss might make people feel disassociated, scattered, empty, distant from life and relationships with other people, etc. We will explore the causes, treatments and the effect of a soul retrieval on a client.

Extraction medicine

In shamanism, when one retains misplaced energy or suffers from an intrusion, it can create a burden on the physical, mental or spiritual body. You will learn how to extract these energies and transmute them. You will learn the different types and how to recognise them by the symptoms they exhibit.

shamanic Divination

Shamanic Divination is the work of interpreting guidance and patterns through elements such as cards, pendulum, or personal kit bones, twigs, stones, bark, beads, etc. to foresee trends based on the present/past, or to understand the present based on patterns revealed by those tools.

medicine for the earth & healing with spiritual light

All life is made of light; everything is light. We can transmute everything in our outer environment and what we take in to pure healing light. You will learn how to practice transfiguration for healing physical, emotional, and environmental toxins; how to work with the elements and come together to bring healing light to ourselves, our communities, and our planet.

Earth-based exploration

Without the Earth, we wouldn’t be: from the soil on which we walk every day, to the food and healing remedies our ancestors foraged to keep alive. The phisical manifestation of Spirit is all around us, and we will be taking our time to connect deeper in this realm, by spending time in nature.

psychopomp - death, dying and beyond

The Greek word “psychopomp” translates to “leading or guiding the soul”, and it is used to address the practice of helping earthbound spirits to cross over and have a peaceful death. We will also explore how this work can help people in the act of dying, or those who bear a fear of death.

shamanic counselling & the garden of the soul

This is a nurturing and deep experience where the individual receives 1:1 guidance in the shamanic realm and is able to explore their life themes with the help of their guides. The direct revelation nature helps the client to see for themselves how to move forward. As a practitioner, you will act as a space holder and guide of the work.

Shamanic practitioner training

connection with the ancestors

Without the Ancestors, we would not exist. You will learn to work with your ancestors and descendants, your spirit helpers, and more. All indigenous societies recognise and revere their Ancestors, and we will commune and work with our bloodline as well as the universal lines.

ritual and ceremony

Everyone loves a ceremony, and as humans we go to great extents to celebrate births as well as funerals, important rites of passage as well as regular occurrences. You will learn how to work with individuals and groups, and what the elements are that make a ceremony or a ritual truly meaningful. The intention and connection with Spirit is the core of our work.

community healing & healing Circles

Community healing has been a fundamental aspect for tribes to thrive, taking care of each other as a group and solid unity. We will explore the different cultural methods and dive into the healing circles and ceremonies.

art, craft, Music & Dance

The shamanic experience is always characterised and often enhanced by music, dance and art. From ecstatic dances to deeply woven drumming circles, they are often the very method to tap into the connection with Spirit. Creative activities documented the spiritual connection, daily life, tradition, meaning, and provided ways to create sacred or ceremonial objects such as rattles, headdress, smudge sticks or fans.

Medicine Wheel

The Medicine Wheel can be found across many cultures, and if we reflect, it truly is no mystery. Every culture has found a way to gather in a circle, honour their seasons, their winds, their cycles. Its ever-shifting nature, depending on the tribe using it and the context, makes it a wonderful expansive tool.

With the successful completion of the training and homework provided, the participants will graduate and receive a certificate from ISHA Academy - International Shamanic Holistic Academy, as this course fulfils the necessary requirements to work as a shamanic practitioner. To graduate, participants need to complete all the case studies and attend the graduation ceremony. It is our commitment to Spirit and our direct agreement with them that can make us a practitioner; it is not a role that can be solely achieved by sitting in the class. Spirit sees your heart clearly, and your intention makes a difference.

Shamanism is a lifetime commitment and a daily practice; your commitment to good practice will be reflected by your choices and dedication, and enhance your connection to spirit and personal power. It is essential to have a clear vision and a strong work and personal ethic.
