MYSTICAL SPANISH
(1 week minimum)
Starting date: Any Monday
Level of Spanish required: Any

This course is especially designed for those who like mysticism and shamanism. We take the students on an amazing trip of rituals and Andean healing sessions whilst they learn Spanish. The students will be immersed with shamans who will lead them through magic and mysterious sites of our ancestors, the Inca people. With this course students will learn more about Cusco and its people by knowing its religion and beliefs. This Spanish course combines both fun and a high standard of learning. Join us and learn about the magic of the shamans in the “centre of the universe” Cusco.

This course takes place both in Cusco and Huasao, a small village located 15 minutes south of Cusco, very well known because of its traditions on Andean mysticism and shamanism. You will spend every afternoon in Huasao during the course, where you will be immersed on this on this magical learning experience.
