Meet the Team

Omar’s journey with plant medicine began in 1993 when he spent time in the Yucatan and met Mayan guides. Taking him into their culture, they taught him some of the Mayan language, the legends and folklore.

He arrived in the Amazon for the first time in 2004 and in 2011 he moved there, spending 8 years studying with authentic traditional Shamans, working with Sacred Medicines, building a successful Healing Center deep in the Amazon Jungle, and learning the ancient ways of plant medicine. Omar has facilitated thousands of Ayahuasca ceremonies, has certified over 80 Kambo practitioners and done many Master Plant Dietas himself as part of his own personal healing journey. He learnt Kambo from the authentic Matses and has partaken in many Huachuma (San Pedro) ceremonies.

As of today he one of the only 9 shamans initiated worldwide to serve Tepezcohuite traditionally. He has also spent time in Mexico where Bufo hails from, and serves Bufo as well in a traditional manner. He is currently creating a curriculum to teach student how to serve these medicines as well.
