About us
Adam First
For over two decades, Adam First has been walking a path of healing, learning, and teaching across diverse traditions and cultures around the world.
His journey eventually led him deep into the Amazon rainforest, where he was profoundly touched by the songs, culture, and spiritual
richness of the Yawanawá people.
Since then, he has cultivated close relationships with the Yawanawá communities of Mutum and Awavãna, supporting cultural and community initiatives while guiding groups into the forest
for transformative experiences.
As a dedicated Kambo practitioner, Adam facilitates healing circles and integrative practices in various countries. At the core of his work lies a sincere commitment to presence, grounded support,
and authentic care for those he accompanies.
