There is only little factual information available for both Guadarrama Sr and Jr, apart from the respective year they were born. Guadarrama Sr gets portrayed as a "spiritual healer, wisdom teacher, musician"<ref name="psi-tage">www.psi-tage.ch/referenten.html accessed 21/04/2014</ref>, and the same professions are ascribed to his son. Guadarrama Sr is said to have been ''"... taught by Teocally, one of the traditional schools of the Aztecs"''<ref name="psi-tage" />. Apart from the faulty spelling, the term "teocalli" translates as "House of God" and therefore means a temple, in particular one built on top of a pyramid.<ref>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teocalli accessed 21/04/2014</ref> Other sites mention Guadarrama Sr was born in Mexico City and ''"works as a shaman and teacher. His ancient wisdom has been passed on from generation to generation"''.<ref name="shamanicteachings">www.shamanicteachings.org/de/schamanen/nopaltzin.html accessed 21/04/2014</ref> The description ''"Nopaltzin knows what it's like to have nothing and offers valuable lessons on this experience"'' may appropriately sum up his early background, while the claims following: ''"A large part of his income from workshops, counsellations, and the sales of beautiful jewelry goes to orphanages in Mexico which have little"''<ref name="shamanicteachings" /> can in no way be verified and probably are no more than a sales pitch to promote himself.

Guadarrama Jr additionally is portrayed as having studied both anthropology and history which cannot be verified online. Another website maintained by the younger Guadarrama claims he studied at the National Institute of Anthropology and History<ref name="koko">www.koko-s-gallery.com/contents/de/d44.html accessed 21/04/2014</ref> which happens to be the same institution claimed by [[Antonio Gómora]] aka Xokonoschtlel. On the other hand, he has been touring various European countries with their dance show and offering seminars and workshops for a substantial number of years. He is also said to be a co-founder of the Guadarrama's alleged non-profit association founded in 1999.<ref name="psi-tage" /> On one of his own websites, Guadarrama Jr claims to be a "social anthropologist" - a term not in use in German language - and an "ethno-physician".<ref name="nopalli">www.nopalli.ch accessed 21/04/2014</ref>

Guadarrama's site also mentions he spent his childhood living with the Yaqui and later on ''"... lived with many different indigenous communities of the continent and learnt their habits and dialects, he was in the south of Mexico with the Lacandons, in western Sierra Madre with the Coras, Tepehuanos and Huicholes or Wirraritari. In 1999, Kokopelli finishes his course of studies at the National School of Anthropology and History. At the age of 24, he began to work for the Museum of Anthropology and History and other cultural institutions."''<ref name="koko" /> As Guadarrama was born in 1975, he thus says to have finished a course of studies at age 25, while in the next sentence, he contends to have started work for a museum and other institutions one year before finishing his studies, at the age of 24, i.e. in 1998. Further peculiarities are his choice of terms such as ''dialect'' instead of language and ''habits'' instead of culture, and, with the exception of one indigenous nation, of giving the Spanish versions of the names of indigenous ethnicities instead of the names these peoples give themselves. This does not only speak against his alleged education in anthropology, but far more against his being acculturated in any indigenous culture and nation.
