Kambo Training

We offer a comprehensive training program at Kambo Casita for those seeking to deepen their personal journey, strengthen their connection with the frog spirit, or develop skills in professional facilitation. Our approach to serving Kambo weaves together traditional wisdom, spiritual awareness, and over 20 years of experience supporting modern health needs.

Our curriculum is built around three core elements and is structured into two training levels, with additional opportunities for deeper growth and expansion. This framework allows future facilitators to cultivate a genuine relationship with Kambo while completing supervised practice periods. Our intention is not to provide a quick certification, but to guide and support individuals on a long-term path with Kambo. Through mentorship and hands-on assisting, you will progress through the levels as you and your teachers feel aligned and ready.

3 Levels of Kambo Training

Self-Application

(level I)

Our first level of training is designed to support you as you begin your personal journey with Kambo.
Learn the foundational skills of burning, mixing, and applying Kambo to yourself.
Review essential history, scientific background, and core techniques.
Practice holding space for yourself and others while Kambo is being applied.
Receive supervision during self-application along with constructive feedback.
Sit in a private consultation to explore the most suitable methods for serving yourself based on your physical and emotional goals.

Please note: Completion of this level is intended for self-application only. We do not recommend or support serving Kambo to others at this stage of training.
