Kachina Ma’an:
founder and guardian of the Umana Technique.

Based in Queensland, Australia, Kachina Ma’an has spent decades working with consciousness and awareness through direct experience rather than theory.

Her work is known for its clarity, precision, and grounded nature, avoiding spiritual performance or fixed belief systems.

The Umana Technique emerged as a natural evolution of this long-standing work with consciousness.

Kachina teaches The Umana Technique Teachers workshop once students have completed the practitioner training.

A Quiet Authority

Kachina Ma’an has always worked quietly and deliberately in the background.

She does not seek attention, recognition, or visibility for its own sake. Much of her work happens away from the spotlight, held with care, consistency, and a deep sense of responsibility for the integrity of what she carries. She allows the work to speak for itself.

Spending time with Kachina is often described as something rare and quietly special. There is no performance, no effort to impress, and no sense of hierarchy. What people notice instead is presence. A grounded calm. A clarity that settles the room and invites you back into yourself.

Her way of teaching is subtle and precise. She offers orientation rather than answers, and space rather than instruction. In that space, people often recognise what they already know, without being told who or how to be.

Kachina’s guiding principle is simple and unwavering: Be the light.

It is not a slogan or an idea she promotes. It is something she lives, moment by moment, through humility, integrity, and quiet service.

From Consciousness Work to Umana

Her early life is a bit of a mystery, but prior to 2003, Kachina channelled an energy that later become the Pellowah Healing Technique©.

Over time, as her work with consciousness deepened, it became clear that further layers of perception and consciousness were available beyond existing energetic models.

Alongside the Pellowah Healing Technique, Kachina offers a range of experiential workshops that support conscious living, inner stability, and expanded awareness.

These include:

  • Five Steps to Living Your Highest Potential

  • Crystal Skulls

  • Connecting with the New Hierarchy

  • Seven Levels of Consciousness

  • Codes for Life and Codes for Life Advances

Each workshop is practical, experiential, and designed to support real change rather than spiritual theory.

In 2024, Kachina formally introduced the Umana Technique through the inaugural practitioner training.

Umana is an advanced consciousness modality that works with a unique meridian system and higher chakras eight through twelve.

It supports expanded awareness, clarity, and conscious evolution in a grounded and practical way.

While distinct from Pellowah, Umana arises from the same foundations of presence, integrity, and lived experience.

Guardian of the Umana Lineage

Kachina remains the guardian of the Umana Technique.

Rather than releasing Umana as a mass system, she teaches the Umana Technique Teachers workshops through direct transmission, relationship, and mentorship. These special one-day workshops are transformative. This lineage-based approach ensures the work remains clean, ethical, and aligned with its original intent. This style of teaching means students get to learn from Practitioners that have learnt directly from the source.

Teaching Through Collaboration

Kachina teaches the Umana Technique teachers workshop in collaboration with certified practitioners she has trained directly, including Nate Micó and Nayali Ayam.

Together, they host official Umana Technique workshops in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane, providing participants with direct experience of the work within its authorised lineage.

This collaborative structure allows Umana to be shared widely while maintaining depth, integrity, and consistency.
