What are the advantages of taking the Practitioners Training?

This is the only Ayurvedic Practitioner Training which is designed to certify foreign students in Ayurveda and is recognized by the government of Maharashta, India. Students who graduate will walk away from the training with all the tools necessary to go back to their own country and begin helping people immediately. The training will include hands-on practical training and the continued support from the staff of the Vinayak Ayurveda and Panchakarma Research Foundation.

 

 

Where is the Practitioner Training held?

The USA training sessions are held in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and the India training sessions are held in Nagpur.

 

 

Are housing facilities provided?

The Vinayak Ayurveda and Panchakarma Research Foundation does not provide housing; however, there are several facilities nearby that will provide housing for the Foundation students at reasonable rates. Contact the Foundation for a copy of the housing options.

 

   

 

I have already taken Anatomy and Physiology, do I really need to take it again?

If you have already taken A&P then you will certainly have an advantage, but the answer is "yes", you will need to take it again as a part of the Practitioner Training. The Practitioner Training will teach A&P from an Ayurvedic prospective.

 

 

Is everyone who applies accepted into the Practitioner Training program?

No. Each student will need to be approved by the teacher and agree to abide by the policies and philosophy of the school.
