André
About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Practitioner, Ceremony Facilitator & Integration Facilitator
André is someone whose presence speaks before words do. Grounded, attentive, and steady, he brings a quiet strength into every space he enters. With an open heart and a clear, down-to-earth way of being, he supports others in moving through their process with trust and ease.
His path has been shaped by lived experience. André spent several months living and working in the Amazon, where he immersed himself in the rhythms of the jungle and his own inner landscape. Through deep personal processes, traditional diets, and participation in plant medicine ceremonies, he learned to listen more deeply, to slow down, and to take full responsibility for his own path. Not in search of answers, but in service of clarity and integrity.
This time in the jungle did not make him louder or more extreme, but calmer, more sincere, and more rooted in the heart. It refined his way of being and continues to inform how he shows up for others.
Alongside his spiritual path, André has a strong foundation in everyday life. In the Netherlands, he worked for many years within healthcare organizations, supporting people with disabilities. There, he developed a deep sense of presence, boundaries, and safety, learning how to truly carry space without taking it over. This grounded experience is reflected in his facilitation and integration work.
Within Onca Takara Organization, André serves as a practitioner and ceremony facilitator, guiding Kambo and Choco Bliss ceremonies as well as integration processes for members of our community.
André is also a co-investor in the Onca Takara Temple in Peru. His involvement comes from devotion to the larger vision and the field being built there, rather than from a personal agenda.
What defines André is reliability. He is someone who stands beside you, not in front of you. Someone who knows when to step in and when to step back. His guidance is clear, warm, and respectful, without drama or excess. Just presence, honesty, and a sense of humor.
In addition to his ceremonial work, André is active as a Breathwork Coach and BRTT Therapist (Body Remember Trauma Therapy). He weaves these modalities naturally into his facilitation and integration support.
Above all, André is someone who genuinely places the well-being of others first. Loyal, committed, and deeply human.
A steady ceremony facilitator.
And a person you can truly trust with your process.
