About Zacbe
Zacbe is a musician, sound healer, and ceremonial facilitator whose work brings together ancestral Mesoamerican traditions, music, shamanic journeys, and Conscious Alchemy, a spiritual practice centered on transforming emotional wounds and challenging life experiences into awareness, wisdom, compassion, and love.
His cacao ceremonies honor the sacred origins of this Mesoamerican seed, using ceremonial cacao sourced from Guatemala and prepared exclusively with natural, ancestral ingredients native to Mesoamerica.
Through sound, ceremony, and conscious presence, Zacbe creates sacred spaces for participants to explore their inner world, embrace their shadows with compassion, reconnect with their hearts, and discover the transformative power of love.
Cacao with Zacbe — available throughout the afternoon
Zacbe will be sharing cacao with us before, during, and after the dance.
We think of cacao as an invitation to open ourselves to the experience we're about to receive. Come early and enjoy some as you arrive and settle in. It will remain available throughout the event if you feel called to receive more between activities, and again afterward as you carry that openness into the rest of your Sunday and the week ahead.
Completely optional. Simply there whenever you'd like some.
