Who is this school for?
For anyone who (just like us) connected a lot with the music at a sacred medicine ceremony or retreat. Now, you can learn medicine songs so that you can maintain your connection to the energy, insights and inspiration you received during this experience.
It takes years to assemble a repertoire of medicine songs, and often, these songs are only shared from one person to another in intimate spaces.
That is why we built the Medicine Music School — for you to be able to do just that, no matter where you are in the world or where you are in your medicine music journey!
This is the first time that the opportunity to learn directly from experienced medicine musicians, who regularly support ceremonies across Colombia and internationally, is being made available to anyone who feels inspired...
