TRADITIONAL SHIPIBO AYAHUASCA RETREAT
in Costa Rica and Peru
Inner Flight is an authentic Shipibo Ayahuasca retreat dedicated to sharing the ancestral healing traditions of the Shipibo-Konibo people. These teachings have been passed down through countless generations and continue to be shared today by the true wisdom keepers, the Shipibo healers.
Our Inner Flight family is formed by two Peruvian Shipibo healers, Maestro Francisco and his daughter, Maestra Tessy, together with us, Roberto and Alexandra, the founders of Inner Flight.
We host authentic Shipibo healing retreats in two sacred places:
COSTA RICA RETREATS
Our Costa Rica retreats are guided by the Shipibo Maestros twice per year when they travel from Peru, and guided by us, the founders, every month.
PERU RETREATS
Our retreats are guided directly by the Shipibo Maestros in their own Shipibo family home and healing center.
We invite you to join us and experience true Shipibo medicine, culture, and healing, shared with respect, integrity, and heart.
