About Me
Movement was my first language long before words ever were.
Since childhood, dance became the place where I could return to myself — a space of silence, presence, expression, and listening. Through movement, I learned to understand the body not only as something physical, but as something deeply connected to emotion, memory, intuition, and transformation.
Years later, through a deep connection with somatic movement and time spent moving in nature and in the forest, Kambo entered my life in a way that felt both unexpected and deeply familiar.
What first began as curiosity slowly became a profound personal process that changed the way I relate to myself, to the body, and to life itself.
Today, my work is rooted in years of personal experience, professional training, and continued learning. I hold an Advanced Practitioner Certification through the International Association of Kambo Practitioners (IAKP), and my path later brought me to Peru, where I deepened my relationship with this work through direct experience and time spent in the jungle.
I am Alessandra — a daughter, a sister, a friend, a woman deeply guided by movement, silence, music, nature, and care.
Silence has taught me as much as movement has: how to observe, to feel, to stay present, and to meet people without needing to shape who they are.
Dance remains an essential part of my life and the way I understand this work. It taught me how to listen to the body with honesty, and Kambo, in its own way, brought me back to that same place — more grounded, more human, and more connected to what truly matters.
my mission
My intention with this work is to create a grounded and safe space where people can reconnect with their body, release what has been held for too long, and move through these processes with presence, care, and support.
I approach Kambo with deep respect for both the medicine and the traditions from which it comes. Ethical practice, responsible sourcing, safety, and continued learning remain essential foundations of the way I work.
I believe this medicine asks for honesty, humility, and responsibility. For this reason, I do not see Kambo as performance, spectacle, or spiritual escape, but as an intense and deeply human experience that can bring people back into closer relationship with themselves, their body, their emotions, and the way they move through life.
My role is not to “heal” others, but to hold space with presence, attention, and care while each person moves through their own process in their own way and time.
Through this work, I offer a space that feels calm, respectful, human, and real — where the body can soften, regulate, release, and reconnect with its own inner intelligence.
Hatun Nuna Kambo – Hatun Nuna can be translated from Quechua as “Great Spirit” or “Great Heart.”
For me, this name reflects the intention behind this work: creating a space rooted in presence, respect, connection, and care — both for ourselves and for the world around us.
Over time, I have come to feel that practices like Kambo invite us to slowly shed the layers that distance us from ourselves, from the body, from nature, and from one another. The expectations, noise, tension, and conditioning we accumulate through life can slowly disconnect us from what feels natural, honest, and essential.
Through these processes, many people reconnect with a simpler and more grounded way of being — one that brings greater presence, compassion, respect, humility, and awareness in the way we relate to ourselves, to others, and to life itself.
For me, this work is ultimately about remembering how to live with more humanity, more honesty, and deeper connection.
