Student Reviews
"This course was amazing!
Chaya is like an encyclopedia! Her vast knowledge is mind blowing! I learned so much and I know my health and general well being will be forever changed because of her training. My experience of the program was wonderful. I am so thrilled that I got to experience it and learn the things I got to learn."
"The program passed my expectations. There was so much I did not know and so much I want to know based on Chaya’s presentations and my body feels better."
"I learned that different doshas do better with different asanas and the Ayurveda way of living as far as herbs, nutrition, meditation, mantras, times of day that are best for my bodily functions and the list goes on!"
"I plan to present this where I teach and have regular classes that will help others become even healthier as far as the things they need for their bodies in addition to yoga."
