The Green Light Bursary

Since the IAKP was founded in 2014, we have been committed to attracting and supporting the most diverse team of practitioners possible. We want to ensure that you can train with us regardless of your background and circumstances.

This includes 2 weeks all-inclusive residential training, your first years’ IAKP membership and your practitioner profile listed on our website for 12 months entirely free of charge.

Feedback from a previous bursary award winner:
Wow. My life has not been the same since. I’ve experienced so much movement and growth in the past two months that it almost seems like a blur. I want to express my deepest gratitude to you for blessing me with the green light bursary award. I have been serving Kambo for almost a month now and my relationship with it has taken on a whole new depth. It’s such an honor to be able to safely share this wonderful healing with others. I want you to know that I will always honor the purpose of the award which in my eyes is to make it available to those less fortunate and those who might not ever have the means to experience it. I am here to be a beacon of Love and Service. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart.
