ABOUT RAAJI AMANKAY
In the last 35 years Raaji Amankay has walked an adventurous path, traveling to many parts of the world, living in different places, and studying and practicing the many things she is passionate about.
Besides her love and education in music, contemporary dance and art, her wish to work with people in a supportive way led her to learn several healing modalities. She is trained in Cranio Sacaral therapy, Shiatsu, Massage, Reiki, Trauma Healing / Somatic Experiencing (Peter Levine) , Continuum Movement and much more. For several years she traveled to India and practiced yoga, meditation and the eastern spiritual traditions.
In 1999 she moved to live in Costa Rica and is one of the pioneers in building the Pachamama Eco Village. There she met the "earth ways" of the southamerican continent and learnt from shamans, grandmothers and curanderos. Plant medicines, indigenous ceremonies and the ancient ways initiated Raaji into the healing power of music and the voice.
Currently she is learning from Shaman Andrea Kalff.
Together with her partner she offers tantric retreats since 2008 around conscious relating and sacred sexuality. Through her own practices she fell in love with womb wisdom, the feminine mysteries and the unique field that happens when women come together.
That's how the Red Temple workshop series was born.
Today Raaji Amankay also shares her offerings as a sound healer, ceremonial singer and song writer and is the Drum Chief of the Moon Dance Switzerland.
She combines her knowledge and her experience in the sessions and retreats she is holding in Pachamama/ Costa Rica and in Europe.
For Raaji life is a pilgrimage into deeper truth, a mystery to be lived and a great opportunity to make this world a better place.
