Ayurveda

In our 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training in Kerala, we incorporate the elements of Ayurvedic principles into the daily routine of the course. Each student has the chance to meet an Ayurvedic doctor, discover their constitution (dosha) and health condition, and receive dietary and lifestyle recommendations to support long-term well-being.

Food Preparation

According to Ayurveda, you are what you eat. We therefore encourage our students to adopt a sattvic (pure, honest, clean) diet during the course. Sattvic food brings lightness to the body and is very supportive of yoga and meditation practice.
