Top Sacred Valley Classes & Workshops

Discover the real flavors of Peru inside a local home in the Sacred Valley. In this small-group cooking experience, you’ll learn how traditional Peruvian dishes are prepared in everyday life. Guided by a local host, you’ll work with regional ingredients and simple techniques used across the Andes. Get hands-on as you prepare a variety of authentic recipes while enjoying classic drinks like Pisco Sour and chicha morada. This is a relaxed and social experience designed to go beyond restaurants and give you a deeper understanding of Peruvian food culture.

Work with pure Chuncho cacao—a Natural Patrimony of Peru sourced from small, independent farms in Quillabamba, including the coffee-growing relatives of your host, Walther Silva. By joining us, you directly support local farmers and continue a family lineage of traditional Andean agriculture. You are guided by Juanita Hufnagel, a 2-time Hatun Karpay Initiate and Advanced Shamanic Practitioner specializing in soul retrieval and somatic integration. An award-winning author and TRE-Certified specialist, she bridges ancient tradition with modern nervous system regulation. Co-facilitated by Walther Silva, a native Peruvian IFBB-certified holistic coach and founder of FitAndes. Walther integrates professional athletic discipline with advanced breathwork and meditation, specializing in high-altitude performance and mindful movement. Together, they offer a trauma-informed, intimate space that honors the journey of the plant from the high jungle to your heart.
