More About Ayurveda & Yoga Certification Training

  • Part I

    First, we establish the foundations,  origins, and the fundamental principles of Ayurveda. We will explore our psycho-physical constitutions (the doshas) and how they influence us. We'll discover how Ayurveda's broader concept of health and wellness goes beyond  the simple absence of disease. 


    We will be cooking and eating together, discovering how to find balance through foods, herbs, oils and self-care routines that best suit us, as well as chants and mantras that uplift us and enhance our well being. 

  • Part II

    Next, we will dive into the exploration of how yoga and Ayurveda come together, why they are considered sister sciences, how yoga asana and pranayama affect the flow of prana and can balance the doshas (elements that contribute to overall health and wellbeing). You will learn how to apply Ayurvedic principles in your personal yoga practice and in your professional offering as well.

In this experiential, hands-on course, you'll gain foundational knowledge of basic Ayurvedic principles as they apply to the practice and teaching of yoga. Beginning with a brief overview of the historical origins of Ayurveda and the different schools of Yoga philosophy that contributed to its development, this course is an exploration of the relevance of Ayurveda in our times, the practicalities of how Ayurveda can enhance not only a regular yoga practice, but also offer the yoga teacher guidelines to intuit and tools to cater to the needs of his or her students and yoga clients more effectively.

Learn the fundamental principles of anatomy and physiology from an Ayurvedic perspective (elements of constitution, main principles or humors, tissues or constructing elements of the body, waste products, the body’s spatial systems or energy channels (srotamsi), digestion, byproducts of overall balanced health). Also, gain insight into Ayurvedic concepts of mind and how it affects the body.Practical exploration of the movement of prana and the energetics of specific yoga asanas and breathing techniques (pranayama). Experience and practice designing different yoga sequences to obtain specific desired effects. Take home simple lifestyle techniques for the longevity of the yoga teacher and practitioner, including food guidelines, daily routine recommendations, and self-care modalities.
