“Guided by Isa Gucciardi’s inspiring and articulate teachings, I am experiencing a deeper trust and “knowing” within myself, and recognizing more easily the interconnectedness, causes and conditions of the world we share. I cannot thank Isa enough for the transformation she has sparked in me.” - Jasmine O.

“Isa [Gucciardi] has taken her vast knowledge of ancient cultures, languages, and religions and created a marvelous shamanic program. Her ability to make this work relevant to individuals, healers, therapists, psychology students, and anyone who finds themselves drawn to this program is remarkable!" - Laura C.

“Imagine 18 congenial people searching for, and finding, the pre-Druidic energy infused in the stones and bones of the Orkney Islands more than 5,000 years ago. Envisioning this trip and holding energy while it manifested took a masterful hand and Isa more than met the challenge. Laura's generous attention to room assignments, kitchen management, food shopping, food prep and her great cooking were powerfully anchoring and nurturing.
Pre-Druidic Orkney still lives, from the Ring of Brodgar and the Stones of Stennes to Berriewood, MIdHowe and the less-well-known cairns waiting in the hillsides. I feel my soul ignited with ah wen, and now pre-Druidic Orkney also lives in me." - Mary Kate J.

“I never thought I could love myself or the challenges that life induces. The Shamanic Studies program has taught me how to search for my spiritual keys, hold onto them, and use those keys to unlock fears, heal, grow, and accept and love the person within. I have more courage now to face life's challenges with compassion rather than self-pity and fear." - Marlo S.

"Isa (Gucciardi) has found a way to take what could be considered esoteric material and grounded it in a very cogent and contemporary context. She has essentially rescued the relevant aspects of ancient practices, texts, and traditions and offered them up to her students in an organized and comprehensible way. To say that Isa and this work has profoundly changed my life is an understatement." - Jason R.

"Isa [Gucciardi] is an exceptional teacher. Her understanding of shamanic practices, and her ability to translate them into a modern healing context is extraordinary. My studies with Isa in the Applied Shamanism program have taught me so much about compassion, integrity, and humility. I am looking forward to continuing my studies with her in the other programs she offers." - Richard K.

“The Shamanic Studies Program [is a] voyage into the depths of consciousness beyond ordinary reality, an exploration and expansion of one's own healing capabilities, not to mention an opportunity to work with and learn from a very talented beautiful teacher. I highly encourage all to partake in this journey that is truly a gift, both to oneself and the service of others. The insights have been invaluable.” - Sharon B.

“The Shamanic Studies Program is awesome! For me it is an in-depth, dynamic way to hone myself, to venture into non-ordinary reality as a regular practice, and to explore many time-honored paths into other realities as a way to serve others. This is a unique and profound program for those who want to help others while sustaining an every day life. Isa [Gucciardi] is an exceptional human being and her teaching style has the highest integrity. What a blessing! This is a sacred path that both leads you into new dimensions of yourself and nudges you beyond your perceived limitations.” - Ruth T.

“Isa's delineation and integration of universal shamanic practices and ancient healing methods to their core essence, her discipline in merging and unmerging with one’s guides, and the respect for the authority of each person’s higher self and internal teachers over her own teachings felt 100% right. I got one green light after another from my wisest self while receiving her trainings and it was the most wonderful, empowering, and natural feeling to allow myself to finally take flight without reservations.” - Loraine V.T.
