Teachings, Ceremony, and Visioning
Shamanic Circles with Taita Itzhak Beery
Thursday and Sunday 14 & 17 May 2026
Kokopelli, Amsterdam
You are warmly invited to join us for a series of shamanic workshops and ceremonies with teacher, healer, and author Taita Itzhak Beery from New York. This will be our third gathering in Amsterdam, a collaboration between Shamans Directory and Shaman Portal, as we continue to cultivate a beautiful community of like-minded individuals, exploring shamanic earth-based wisdom and medicine ways that support us in our personal growth in service to ourselves and others.
Itzhak is truly a one-of-a-kind shaman — an elder, master, and storyteller — who lovingly and generously shares his energy, heart, and wisdom through a grounded and down-to-earth teaching style, shaped by decades of lived experience. Since 1995, he has been bridging the spiritual and practical wisdom entrusted to him by his Indigenous and Western teachers. He was initiated by his Kichwa teacher in Ecuador and by an Amazonian Kanamari Pajè in Brazil, amongst others. He is also the founder of ShamanPortal.org, the Andes Summit, and The New York Shamanic Circle. Now in his mid-70s, Itzhak carries a wealth of wisdom he lovingly shares and brings a remarkably vibrant energy. You are sure to receive new insights and practices, and to feel welcomed into a gentle and nurturing container.
Come be inspired, nourish yourself, and enrich your practice with powerful approaches you can integrate into your life and healing work.
Shamanic Palm Wisdom: Foundational Workshop, 14 May
Learn how to interpret the patterns and wisdom held within the hands. Discover the four elemental hand types, the meaning of the Sun and Moon mounds, and what the major lines and markings reveal about ourselves. The more we understand palm wisdom as a blueprint of ourselves the more this practice can become a valuable diagnostic tool.
The Sacred Garden: A Shamanic Soul Journey, 17 May
Shamanic wisdom teaches that the world is shaped by how we dream it. When we change the inner terrain, the outer world begins to respond. Learn to communicate with your inner garden, and gain insight and clarity. When we tend to the garden — removing, planting, restoring, or reshaping — and the garden begins to change, so too does our lived experience and the way we see the world around us.
Please feel free to use the 15% discount code SHUNGO2026, meaning "from my heart to yours," and share this invitation with anyone who may feel called to join us.
No prior shamanic training is required to enter this work. Only curiosity and a willingness to explore are needed. More details and registration links can be found below: Event Flyer and Tickets
We look forward to sharing this enriching experience with you, learning, growing, and connecting in our sacred circle! If you are unable to join the Amsterdam workshops and are in Europe, Itzhak will also be offering workshops in London, UK, and Tuscany, Italy, right after he visits the Netherlands.
