Doña Angela is the sister of don Enrique and don Ronor. She studied in the same Shipibo healing tradition, based on relationships with five plant spirits: Noya Rao, Bobinsana, Chiric Sanango, Marusa, and Chullachaqui. She leads our shorter retreats at the Riosbo Retreat and Research Center. She's a mother and her caring spirit is felt in ceremony as well as during the treatments she provides. Doña Angela has a compassionate and caring energy and enjoys teaching and guiding program participants as well as our own facilitators. Her presence is enjoyed by everyone who comes in contact with her. It's a pleasure to offer programs with her and to know her.
Angela projects depth and sincerity. In ceremony, her icaros are captivating, weaving a web of sound that enriches the medicine experience. I felt held by strong and ancient power in her presence. Highly recommended!

I don’t have much to say about Doña Ángela—other than that she’s a great person and does her job at the highest possible level. She’s the GOAT.

May retreat 2025
Dona Angela was amazing. I had a very challenging first ceremony. I was told after that I was very sensitive to the medicine, so a normal dose was a bit much for me. She was able to deal with the situation and I proceeded through the rest of the ceremonies just fine. She met with me a couple of times to answer some questions I had. The major trauma I had that was buried deep from so long ago was released. No other form of treatment could have helped me with that. I am so grateful for her service to humanity.
