Our focus is on uniting practitioners across the world connected by a more unified moral compass to set a higher standard and accountability for those in service and those who will be stepping into service.
We are building a family of the most highly qualified and experienced practitioners learning and serving at the intersection where western world educational standards meets initiations with Indigenous elders to provide the most knowledgeable and deeply experienced facilitators.
We safeguard indigenous wisdom by maintaining direct relations with our teachers and integrating it into our service, trainings and leadership practices.
We see you.
We welcome long-term, seasoned facilitators as our foundational ground - those practitioners who have been in the field for a number of years, serving regularly, who have served complex and fragile health conditions, and who are ready to step into an individual and collective leadership role for the future of Kambo.
We also welcome newer practitioners with dedication, devotion and potential as respectable carriers who may need guidance or mentorship along the way.
Weโve heard from many new practitioners that they feel unsupported by their training body or that something wasnโt authentically aligned with their lead facilitators.
We welcome individuals who train with us as well as practitioners who trained elsewhere and are simply needing family and more expanded experience in the field.
We see cliquey, culty and dogmatic vibes in the field. Weโre not here for that. Weโre here to unite practitioners with similar values to support each other in the safe-guarding and respectful stewarding of this precious gift.

At the heart of our mission lies a profound reverence for the rich tapestry of indigenous culture and tradition of Kambo woven through centuries within humanity's story in the Amazon.
We recognize that this ancient wisdom is emerging now as a vital reservoir of hope, knowledge, resilience, and interconnectedness that has much to teach us in the modern world.
As leaders in an evolving world, we bear a sacred responsibility to honor, preserve, and uplift invaluable indigenous legacies, particularly in the field of Kambo.
We can safeguard this tradition by holding higher practitioner standards in order to create more accountability in the global field.
By holding this tradition passed down through generations with profound respect, we can build deep sense of community, unity, and trust that transcends borders and differences through our immense awareness of how the demand for Kambo effects the frogs, the jungle, and indigenous culture.
Moreover, we understand that the preservation of indigenous culture is not merely an act of nostalgia or sentimentality, but a vital step towards building a more just, sustainable, and harmonious future for all.
In embracing and integrating right relations and integrity into our practices, we encompass standards of ethics, sustainability, and de-colonization in the field of holistic well-being and harmony with the natural world through Kambo.
By fostering cross-cultural understanding and exchange with various communities in the Amazon who traditionally use Kambo, wisdom can flow freely between generations and cultures, and every individual can thrive in learning through first-hand experience.
In this journey, we commit ourselves to humility, reciprocity, and lifelong learning, recognizing that true leadership is not about exerting power over others, but about stewarding resources, uplifting voices, and fostering environments where all can flourish.
In this journey, we commit ourselves to humility, reciprocity, and the slow approach through lifelong learning, stewarding precious resources, uplifting voices, speaking for nature, and fostering environments of well-rounded, eco-focused values where all can all play a positive role in the future of this medicine.

We are a private network of seasoned Kambo practitioners from various backgrounds, bonded in a dynamic but unified international collective.
Within our collective, each of us plays a vital role.
While some are lead trainers, others are pioneering research studies.
Some carry influence through online platforms, others hold leadership roles in their community.
Practitioners and seekers listen and look up to us for education, community and connection.
Through individual and communal efforts and collaboration, we will be able to stand as authentic and integral authority in the field to make this indigenous tradition ethical and accessible to all who can benefit while unifying as a collective who serve at the highest caliber.
With this comes a profound responsibilityโ to serve, train, educate, and listen with unwavering integrity and humility, standing as examples for those who see how we are refining the future of Kambo facilitators through heart-led and sustainable practices.
There are no culty vibes, no cliquey vibes.
We are simply a family of practitioners united by our love and respect for this medicine and itโs indigenous history. It doesnโt matter who you trained with or where youโre from,
what matters to us is how grounded, aligned, and heart-centered you are when it comes to service, the future of the frogs, maintaining indigenous relationships and preservation of the practice.
By joining the Collective, youโre joining a practitioner network who hold the highest standards in the Western world of Kambo.
While the word โexclusiveโ doesnโt quite resonate, we do have an in-depth vetting process and we are very considerate and intentional who we partner with.
By joining the collective, youโre standing solid in a similar mission and set of values and are proud to be a part of this practitioner network.
For many of us in this group, we believe Spirit calls the Carrier and invites you into a practitioner role.
Itโs not a right, itโs a privilege.
Itโs not given, itโs earned.
Through hard work, time, devotion, discipline, experience, and practice.

Safety. Integrity.
Honesty. Trustworthiness.
Responsibility. Reputability.
Groundedness. Non-dogmatism.
Right Relations. Reciprocity.
Authenticity. Reverence.
The Kambo frog population isn't threatened yet, but many frogs are sick or over-harvested, and there's a concerning trend of online ordering from unknown sources.
To ensure Kambo remains sustainable, accessible, and culturally respected, it's time to align our hearts with ethical practices.
We are here to guide the way.
