We Are Xi’im Ek Balam

Our collective is co-founded by Ixchel Tōnantzin Xōchitlzihuatl (Uto-Aztecan/ Uto Nahuatl), Renda Dionne Madrigal (Turtle Mountain Chippewa), Felipe Viveros (Chilean), Yumiko Banchan Bamba (Japanese), Aleanu Matthee (Dutch), Freddy Gualinga (Kichwa), Spirit Soul Sensei (Afro-indgenía maroon of Puerto Rica and Jamaica), and Aleanu Imbert Matthee (Dutch).

  

We integrate Traditional Indigenous Knowledge (TEK) to address contemporary needs of communities at sacred sites through cultural preservation and innovation.  

We believe that through accessing the original vibration of our ancestors’ teachings (in song, dance, language and story medicine) that we can find all the information we need to move into right alignment with the cosmos.
