10 Day Shamanic Breathwork Training in Peru
With Kamel, Kailin Marie and Daya Nimai Das
October 19 - 28, 2027
Pranayama guides the breath. Shamanic breathwork lets it lead.
This is a breathwork training through and through. You live on site at Melissa Wasi in Pisac, practise every day and learn to guide transformational breathwork with confidence, integrity and presence. You arrive deepening your own practice. You leave ready to guide.
Who it’s for
Yoga teachers, breathwork practitioners, therapists and space-holders who have felt what breathwork can open and feel called to hold it for others.
Three rings, one practice
Each day moves from your own experience (shamanic breathwork, pranayama, yoga, meditation) to the knowledge behind it, then to the craft of guiding others.
Your facilitators
- Kamel: lead facilitator for the shamanic breathwork
- Kailin Marie: pranayama, meditation, vocal activation and live music
- Daya Nimai Das: founder of the Andean Yoga School in Pisac, leads the daily yoga
Certification
70+ hours in person over 10 days, covering breathwork techniques, pranayama, physiology, trauma-informed facilitation, supervised practice and integration. You need at least 90% attendance and must pass three assessments: knowledge, an observed practical session and a final facilitation evaluation. You then receive a Shamanic Breathwork Instructor Certificate issued by Melissa Wasi and Not Your Typical Shaman. It is a training-based certificate, and local rules and insurance for breathwork vary by country.
Booking includes a short breathwork safety screening, because your safety comes first.
