Darcy is a gifted and highly trained plant spirit medicine Kamaska Curandero who specializes in sacred plant spirit medicine ceremonies and distance energy medicine. He is a sanctioned teacher of the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition and mentors other healers and practitioners globally. Darcy has worked with thousands of clients through his ceremonial and transformational energy work practice. He is tapped into the alive potential within humanity to transform and evolve into ways of living that are supportive of life. He has a deep passion for helping people heal and thrive, and has dedicated many years to training within shamanism, consciousness studies, self-inquiry, and various energy healing modalities.
Over the last 20 years he has been traveling to Peru to study with the Master shamans of the Peruvian Amazon, the high plateaus of the Andean mountains, and coastal Peru in the practice of traditional Curanderismo and Paqokuna shamanism. Eventually Darcy discovered the beautiful Pachakuti mesa lineage of Andean medicine taught by don Oscar Miro-Quesada. He felt very called to begin apprenticeship in this wisdom system, as well as journeying within the Pachakuti teacher’s path. Darcy has been astounded and astonished at the beauty, the majesty, and the incredible potential for these ancient Andean energies to transform and awaken consciousness in our lifetime. He is honoured to be able to be in service to the beauty of this lineage.
Darcy's synergetic ceremonial practice is an expression of his love for life and spirit. This practice is characterized by his love of learning, fearless curiosity, playful sense of humour, and kindness. Darcy is committed to support as many people as possible in this planetary evolution, and tremendously honored to be of service in the support of others in their own healing, wholeness and well being.

Robin is one of the only a few fully trained western Kamasqueras and one of the only women in this field of practice. She was called to the ceremonial work after a decade long struggle with an undiagnosable and untreatable "mystery illness". She has lived and walked the path of the wounded healer. With over 22 years of ceremonial immersion she kindly, compassionately, and expertly guides each client into their own unique power, medicine, and direct connection to the inner healer. Robin has worked with and supported incredible elders from South and North America to learn the medicine ways through direct guidance, observation, and energetic transmission. Robin vast experience in the realms of ceremony, including immersion within the ceremonial ways of the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition, Huachuma Curanderismo, Ayahuasca Vegetalismo, the Sacred Mushrooms, North American Medicine Wheel and sweat lodge teachings, Theta Healing, new science and wisdom teachings from Earth Honouring European and Egyptian mystery schools. Robin has radically unique training, medicine, and a vast reservoirs of experience, shamanic power, and teachings she generously shares with all who come.
Robin has facilitated well over a thousand ceremonies (and worked with far more clients) from her cross-cultural shamanic practice and in this time she has learned what truly serves and prospers her clients to heal from their own direct connection, resource, and personal empowerment. She reverently weaves the ancient plant spirit medicine ceremonial arts, the beauty of visionary arts, the depth of the mystery school teachings, and the power of personal sovereignty to create a potent healing container.
Robin holds a B.A. in Environmental Studies and Eco-psychology from Naropa University and a Master of Arts in Good and Sustainable Communities from Northern Arizona University. She completed the fieldwork for her master’s thesis “Entheogenic Soul Evolutions” on her first trip to Peru in 2006.
Robin is a sanctioned teacher and mentor in the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition of cross cultural shamanism and offers the 5 Part Apprenticeship series with her soulmate and husband, Darcy. This stellar and radically transformative lineage has woven together all of Robin's previous fields of study into a comprehensive whole, rooted within an ancient yet evolutionary lineage of wisdom keepers. It is her great joy and honour to share this with the growing body of mesa carriers and Earth stewards.
Robin and Darcy offer workshops, retreats, and pilgrimages through out the Americas.

Entheogenesis Immersion
Master Teacher Plant Immersion for Integral Practitioners
March 10 - March 21st, 2025
Bridging science and shamanism to empower best practice within
the Psychedelic Renaissance.
Join this absolutely unique deep dive journey into the art of true healing with the divine sacraments and master teacher plants with online master class &In-person Experiential Immersion Retreat in the Diamante Valley, Costa Rica
March 10- 21, 2025
The Entheogenesis Immersion Program is your gateway to deep healing and spiritual awakening within the third wave of the psychedelic renaissance. This is an intimate container with a maximum of 16 participants.
Under the guidance of Darcy Kopas and Robin Flynn, you will be brought through an immersive, transformational experience that blends ancient shamanic teachings and practice with modern science. This journey will give you the tools to create containers of reverence and skillful means for true healing of yourself and others.
We will begin this journey with an online mentorship container where you will receive the in-depth teachings offered through our Signature online course "Entheogenesis- True Healing with the Divine Sacraments and Master Teacher Plants." We will bring all of these teachings and experiential practices into a 11 day on in-depth immersion container in the wild jungle retreat Costa Rica where you will be able to have the direct experience with the ceremonial master teacher plants.
On conclusion of this retreat and the completion of this course work, we will provide you with Resource and Empowerment Model Certification, increasing your ability to hold safe and impactful healing spaces for yourself and others. Darcy and Robin’s extensive experience in ceremonial practices ensures that you’ll receive some of the most comprehensive, hands-on training available in today’s psychedelic renaissance.
Entheogenesis Immersion is sacred space where we learn the "medicine" through our own healing journey. We understand that we can't give what we don't have. It is the depth of our personal practice and the integral application of the medicine and teachings that creates the energetic power and integrity of what we can offer to others.
The foundation of this program is our signature "Resource and Empowerment Therapeutic Model." In this immersion we will guide you within the powerful beauty of the Master Teacher Plants and offer you heart to heart mentorship to bring forth your unique medicine as a New Earth Leader and Luminary.
Our model offers direct tools and parameters for best practice within ceremonial, shamanic, and psychedelic spaces; as well as to help clients in recovering from psychedelic or ceremony related trauma. This is not a theoretical learning environment but an applied ceremonial practicum. If you have the call to learn and serve within the psychedelic renaissance then it is helpful to have a foundational understanding of shamanic wisdom (and shamanic street smarts.) If you are called to the spiritual power of the plants then you need to be grounded in leading edge science of: trauma, nervous system regulation, brain states, neuroimmunology, neuroplasticity, and heart coherence. It is also absolute necessary to be able to determine when this work is counter-indicated (for you and your clients.) This is where shamanism and science are both needed to truly bring forth powerful healing spaces for your self and community.
In this container we will experientially guide and mentor you into the leading edge of the psychedelic renaissance going beyond therapy - into deep ceremonial immersion and psychosomatic transformation within Gaian consciousness. Where you will learn powerful Evolutionary Earth Medicine to bless your personal healing and sacred path of service.
Your healing is your sacred path of service.
The only way you learn within traditional ceremonial practices is by doing. We learn the “medicine'' by being transformed and healed through the power of the practice. Then the “medicine” lives within us to share.
