Transformation & Embodiment
A Visionary Leader in Healing and Transformation.
Kano is a shamanic practitioner, professional musician, transformational coach, and embodiment work facilitator, skillfully weaving a rich tapestry of healing and artistry. His musical journey encompasses a myriad of genres, but it is his profound transformation through addiction recovery that has ignited his true mission. For the past decade, Kano has immersed himself in the vibrant cultures of the Amazon jungles of Peru, studying under the wisdom of Shipibo Indigenous healers. In this sacred space, he has not only embraced ancient ceremonial practices but has also crafted healing music inspired by these time-honored traditions.

3 nights sacred ceremony & 1 Integration day with a delicious dinner feast
The Arizona Sanctuary
Rooted at a breathtaking ranch oasis in Arizona — just one hour from Phoenix and 40 minutes from Sedona — The Arizona Sanctuary offers big sky, ancestor trees, surrounding mountains, and desert silence that immediately slows your nervous system down. Each guest stays in beautifully crafted, thoughtfully designed tiny homes, offering both privacy and a deep sense of connection to the land and community. Led by Kano and an experienced facilitation team, these 4-night immersions include an opening circle, three nights of the sacred arc of ceremony, and a full day devoted to integration — with hikes across the sacred land, time with the horses and donkeys, deep rest, and a closing integration dinner shared together. Our opening weekend is April 30 followed by our second weekend May 4 & May 7-11. We will be gathering 1–2 times per month, creating a steady rhythm for those who feel called. This is an opportunity to stand at the beginning of something meaningful — to help root a sanctuary and a community that will grow for years to come.
Master Plant Dieta
Finca Victoria
Vieques, Puerto Rico
September 28 to October 11, 2026
14 days. Two master plants. One path.
A Path Into the Living Intelligence of Nature
Rooted in the Shipibo Konibo tradition Kano has walked for over a decade, this 14-day dieta is an opportunity to enter into direct relationship with two master plants: Noya Rao, the Tree of Light, and Bobinsana, the Heart Opener. Held at Finca Victoria, a sanctuary that offers the simplicity of the dieta in a space that lets your nervous system actually settle. The container is small. The days are slow. The work is honest. Four ceremonies spaced with intention, daily plant intake, sacred plant baths, icaro practice, periods of silence, and yoga with Sylvia. Whether this is your first dieta or you have walked this path before, this is a foundation. A place where your relationship with the plants actually begins.
KANO MUSIC
“Choosing to walk this path is not easy. In many ways, it is one of the hardest things a person can do.
For me, it began at a breaking point, coming out of addiction to drugs and alcohol and realizing something had to change. What followed was not quick or simple. It was years of doing the work, through western approaches, through ancient traditions, and through a willingness to face what I had been avoiding.
Over time, that process became something else. Not just healing, but a reorientation. A remembering of who I am and why I am here.
This path will take you into places that can feel dark, uncertain, and challenging. What I have learned is that we are not meant to walk it alone. It is through connection, with community, with teachers, and with the natural and spiritual worlds, that we find our way through and begin to see clearly again.
My work now is an extension of that journey. Through ceremony, embodiment, music, and guidance, I serve the ongoing process of remembering, reconnecting, and living in alignment.”

TRANSFORMATION CONTAINER & SESSIONS
-
Before ceremony, I help you go deep within to give voice to a meaningful intention aligned with what you need in this moment.
Working together, we bring awareness to where you are now, and where you desire growth and change. Approaching the medicine in truth, with knowing and clarity, can help crystalize and deepen the experience of your ceremony.
-
Integration is all too often not focused on, however it is truly the most important part of our personal work. We need to learn and practice how we can bring the insights, guidance and new energy into our lives. Without integration, any ceremonial work we have done could be pointless.
-
I want to meet you where you at and take you beyond where you can imagine you could go.
You are designed to be the fullest expression of your imagination. You can live your dream life, it just takes some work to get there.
