Nelida Vilca Huaman is an Andean shaman from the Chinchero village of Peru. Her family origins are from Apurimac (the Apu who speaks) and from Chumbivilcas, where she carries a lineage of warrior healers.

In 2010, she met master Puma who started teaching her and initiated her as a master in the path of Kapaq Ñan. Since then, she’s been walking and sharing all of the knowledge, ceremonies, offerings, and mesa work in Chinchero. She also offers her teachings and knowledge of the Ñustas and guides others to the sacred sites in Peru so they can have direct experience with these divine feminine beings.
