Sacha, a Kichwa word meaning ‘jungle’, is a private magical retreat property birthed through the medicine work of One Light Tribe, a community founded by Isa in 2013. The property was purchased in late 2017 and building began in 2018, and was completed in 2023. We open it to the greater community to host sacred space, trainings, medicine works, yoga, meditation retreats and spiritual events.

The property is in the village of San Marcos La Laguna, Barrio 3, a short walk on a foot path from the center, in the valley. It is fully private and secure, contained with a high wall all around.
