I am originally from the land of the Hacaritamas in the Andes in northern Colombia, a land where ancient warriors used to live. Guardian of the sacred fire and traditional medicines of the Americas, born in 1977, I have been guided and supported by wise elders of my native land since the age of 14. I am a music composer and a sound healing practitioner. For the past 17 years, I have been traveling and sharing the wisdom of the Sacred Fire and Ancient Sound and its relationship with the Medicine of the Plant and Animals Kingdoms. I hold traditional ceremonies, sacred sound tours, conferences, workshops, concerts, therapies and retreats in different countries all over the world, including Colombia, Chile, England, Scotland, Wales, Ibiza, Bali, Poland, France, Portugal, Switzerland, Romania, South Korea and Italy.

I became part of the School because for many years I have been in search of the wisdom from the Elders. I have been many years sitting in fires and sacred places, recognizing their great wisdom, learning and growing, because each encounter is a great learning. Also since my process of having been in the Haré Krishna Temple I carry that knowledge within me to pass it on. It is my greatest wish that just as we have learned along the way, many people also get to know the ancestral teachings of the Guardians, interact and grow in this space that we have been building with so much love.
SOFÍA PÉREZ Head of Production
Life has led me to know many beautiful paths of wisdom, to walk with people, teachers, wise grandparents and guardians of sacred and ancient knowledge with incredible life teachings, powerful medicines that are direct connectors of the cosmos, and of mother earth; understand and understand that all this is a great fabric, a beautiful backpack.
I deeply believe in the need to come closer and recover our ancestral knowledge as humanity, to regain our identity with our past, as a species, as a living territory, to awaken the memory that is stored in our individual and collective unconscious, to re-discover and re -learn ourselves as a small part of the whole, in order to approach a coexistence in balance with ourselves and our mother.

When I arrived at the School for the first time, I had deep wounds with my ancestors and through the words of the Guardians I began to heal, to recognize and to value my origins. From the first moment the project caught my attention, and I looked for a way to get more actively involved and not just as an assistant. Today I am part of the team, contributing my experience and knowledge in the field of marketing and advertising, where I have a long history in the creative management of brands such as Movistar, Mercedes Benz, Fox, Hooters, Harley Davidson, Liga Colombiana de Lucha Contra Cancer, Bogota City Hall, International Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders, Grancolombiano Polytechnic among others.
