Maestro Francisco Vasquez
About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Maestro Francisco has been working with the Shipibo medicine path since his early 40's, and is now 65 years old.
Although he started his learning later than most, Francisco has rapidly progressed to become a truly high level, mature Maestro of the Shipibo tradition. His beautiful Icaros are sung in the more traditional and deeply poetic 'Shirobehua' style, where Francisco's energy of happiness and hopefulness radiates out to eclipse negative energies in the Ceremony. He is always calm and solid in the middle of the storm.
Francisco has experience working with several different Ayahuasca centres in Iquitos and Pucallpa. He is friendly and open and enjoys sharing stories and knowledge with visitors. We are very happy to have his presence and his help as a lead Maestro here at Caya Shobo.
