Yaku & Kuntur
About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Yaku Amaru (Water Serpent) and Nina Kuntur (Fire Condor) are life partners, both Qheswa natives from Pisac - Sacred Valley of the Inkas (Cusco - Peru), heirs of ancestral Andean wisdom, wisdom of a culture with more than 5000 years old and highly admired for its achievement in the construction and development of precise and efficient tools that lead to a deep knowledge of our (holistic) being, and its harmonious integration with everything that surrounds it.. a natural communion to the cosmic laws and forces that govern life, & coexist in an interdependent, conscious, respectful and loving interaction.. a fine, beautiful and delicate balance with the whole.
Yaku and Kuntur are guardians, carriers and transmitters of this ancient legacy that is a sacred treasure of love. They live in love with their ancestral culture, they admire and celebrate it through the recovery, protection, strengthening and dissemination of its expressions, values and principles. Thus, since 1990 they have promoted various cultural - social programs with which they managed to recover, reactivate and keep their culture alive, especially their worldview (cosmovison), music, ancestral celebrations. They are founders and members of the Wiñay Taki de Pisac cultural center, also from the P'isaqa community. In 2010 (together with 4 other families) they founded a Kusi Kawsay Andean educational school for children and youth of indigenous origin and low economic resources. In this institution both structured the cultural-spiritual part and taught it to the students for more than 10 years, benefiting many families in the recovery and strengthening of their cultural identity, self-esteem, dignity, values.
Yaku is also a teacher of the ancestral language Runasimi (Quechua), she cultivates traditional songs, practices biomagnetism as therapy, Andean ceremonial massage, etc. Kuntur is also a builder of native musical instruments, a musician, composer, singer- songwriter and also a teacher and researcher of traditional-ancestral Andean music.
As a Sacred Mission, they two share "sowing" this millennial wisdom-medicine as a work of spiritual-transformational service. At the same time that they are weaving with other women and men who carry different contemporary knowledge and from other ancestral cultures of our beautiful planet, thus creating a precious and powerful bridge of interculturality that leads to the "flowering" of our personal-cosmic power... a new human being... complete, loving, conscious, balanced and just that leads to a better world.
