Reclaiming Our Indigenous Roots.
Are you the child or grandchild of a Latin Immigrant? Longing for a home you’ve never known? Come build community and learn about how to reclaim our Indigenous roots in a respectful way with others just like you.
Our Approach
Many of us who have Indigenous or Native heritage are very confused about how to (re)connect to it in a respectful way. We are concerned about culturally appropriating a way of life that we did not grow up in, but we also long to be who we are. This Introductory class gives you the ‘coming home’ framework to help you take the next step towards reclaiming who you are in a good way.
Our process is simple and thoughtful.
This course is about doing the work to reclaim who we are by following the teachings of Native and Indigenous elders to come home to ourselves and our peoples as responsible community members.
In-person and remote options
Our introductory class is only offered online to ensure people can access it from anywhere in the world. For in person options, we also offer Spanish immersion and solo retreats in rural Colombia.
Our Intro Class
We encourage you to start out with our 2 hour introductory workshop: Reclaiming Our Indigenous Roots. Here are the next few times it is being offered.

The Waterfall
LANDS OF THE MUISCA PEOPLE
When Rosa first came to the waterfall in Boyaca, Colombia, she knew that she had finally come home. Her people, the Muisca, have a special connection to water, and the waterfall teaches her something new about how to live well each time she visits with it.
