Programs

Overview

PROGRAMS offered include: 1) Diploma – Ayurvedic Lifestyle Counselor (high school graduation or equivalent is a prerequisite, 7 month program), 2) Certificate – Ayurvedic Practitioner (Diploma is a prerequisite, 14 month program), and 3) Master of Arts – Ayurveda (B.A. or B.S. and Certificate – Ayurvedic Practitioner are prerequisites, 9 month program, including internship).

CLASSES MEET one three-day weekend per month, starting Friday mornings and ending Sunday afternoons, and include experiential practice as well as academic sessions. In addition, for the Credential – Ayurvedic Practitioner, one Anatomy and Physiology weekend must be taken prior to the start of the Certificate program in July.

OUR CURRICULUM is modeled on the B.A.M.S. Ayurvedic Medical School curriculum in India. As is traditional in a college educational system, each course is taught by an expert in that subject and students gain a variety of perspectives on the vast field of Ayurveda. In this way they develop their own understanding of the subjects, are tested in their knowledge, and gain the ability to think, reason and analyze for themselves, in the process gaining the ability to tap into their intuitive knowledge. With a variety of models to emulate, students become competent, confident and skilled Ayurvedic Practitioners with their own unique style.
