About Youzar

Youzar (pronounced Jo-zar) is an Artist, Ceremonial Leader, and Practitioner of Natural and Psychedelic Medicine. A teacher of Traditional Kundalini Yoga and Sound Healing, his work bridges ancient wisdom and modern healing through ceremony, music, and meditation.

After completing over 600 hours of Yoga Alliance–certified training and apprenticing in Bufo Alvarius and Kambo facilitation in Mayan Mexico, Youzar has guided nearly 1,000 ceremonies across six countries and four continents.

He serves on the Sangha Council at the Detroit Zen Center and holds certification in Risk Assessment and Crisis Intervention in Psychedelic Ceremonies. His teachings are informed by years spent living with Shamans, Yogis, and Healers worldwide, offering experiences that awaken remembrance, harmony, and divine connection.

Youzar’s Offerings

  • A man wearing a hat and beige clothes is standing in the center of a yurt, holding a bouquet of what appears to be dried leaves or flowers. There are people sitting on the floor in a circle around him, some with drums and other musical instruments, suggesting a group activity or ceremony. The interior of the yurt has wooden lattice walls and a circular ceiling with a light shining down.

    Ceremonies & Journeys

    Guided natural medicine experiences for awakening, healing, and remembrance. Private or group sessions, locally and internationally.

  • Two people sitting cross-legged on cushions in front of a large abstract mural, surrounded by various objects and musical instruments, in a cozy indoor space.

    Yoga, Meditation, & Sound Medicine

    Classes and immersions to cultivate presence, self-acceptance, and balance.

    Healing through vibration — a convergence of rhythm, resonance, and intention.

  • A woman wearing a black wide-brimmed hat and a tattooed arm sits among a group of people practicing yoga under a large white tent outdoors.

    Events / Retreats / Gatherings

    Through events and retreats, I invite you to connect to this work — to slow down, listen deeply, and remember who you are beneath the noise.

    Each experience is an opportunity to soften into presence, open to healing, and awaken the divine potential within.
