I get asked ALL THE TIME about when I will create an Ayurveda 101 course and where can you go to learn more specifics about Ayurveda. So I was really excited when Yoga Journal came to me with this idea to do 3 eCourses on the basics of Ayurveda segmented by season and dosha qualities. I thought “YES! This is perfect.” Then to make it even more profound and information-packed, we have my good friend Larissa Hall-Carlson, who is the former dean of the School of Ayurveda at Kripalu, teaching the yoga poses for each session!
If Ayurveda is the sister science of yoga and means “the science of life,” why don’t we use it more in the yoga studio and in life? This course demystifies the most elemental and mind-body balancing ancient science known to yogis. Each four-week program, or year-long package, allows you to learn about your body’s natural needs through each season and how to heal, eat, cook and cleanse for true balance. In addition, enjoy self-care demonstration techniques adapted to your individual dosha and signature yoga practices and poses you can use at home or as a teacher.
Ayurveda 101 is split up into 3 sessions – Spring, Summer and Winter. You can decide to only take the course for the season or dosha you’re interested in, or you can challenge yourself to learn Ayurveda for all 3 seasons.
NOTE: This course qualifies for 30 Yoga Alliance CEUs.

What is the credit for yoga for? If I want to become a yoga Instructor (I do) that’s like college credit that applies to my instruction classes? Does it have to be era Vedic yoga or could it also apply to Kundalini Yoga
Christine says
Ayurvedic sorry about the typo
LifeSpa Staff says
Hi Christine, thanks for reaching out. This course qualifies for 30 Yoga Alliance CEUs. The routines are to support each Dosha and are therefore taught from the standpoint of Ayurvedic wisdom. Kundalini itself can fall under this umbrella, but it’s not specifically taught. Kundalini yoga based in Yogi Bhajan’s teachings are not incorporated.

Will the winter session be offered again as my first session would be spring 2017.
Lisa Shah says
HELLO!
I am new to your course. I am a PA practicing in oncology. I think modern medicine is definitely in need of “going back to our roots”
Are you able to offer any further discount so that I may take the course and share with other healthcare professionals?
thank you,
Lisa
Kate says
Hello, can you please specify ‘a month’s worth of yoga practice’?
For example, how many classes and how long are they?
Tax Sandi says
Will this course include a means to self diagnose your doshas ?
Cynthia Hoss says
How is this on-line course different than the “Uniting Yoga and Ayurveda: Balancing the Doshas” program that is being offered at Kripalu?
I am contemplating which one to choose. I have already taken the Foundations of Ayurveda and the Ayurvedic Yoga Specialist training programs at Kripalu, but I know there have been many program revisions since my training. Looking for my next step and refreshment!
Sandra says
And I can’t find info on the other sessions, either. Just tells about Dec 5 session.
John Douillard says
Hi Sandra. The release dates for the two other sessions have not been released yet. Plan on March 2017 for Spring and June 2017 for Summer. More information will come out in the next few months. Be well.

Have worked with Larissa before and am very interested to take this course as she is amazing. But like the commenter before me, privacy is also important to me. May you please advise where we can find the course cost without giving away our private identifiable information.
Thank you so much.

Thanks – I didn’t expect it under FAQ

Before I start handing out my contact information that Yoga Joirnal wants to share…what is the cost for the ayurveda/yoga training?
Gail says
Click the learn more tab and then there is a tab FAQ where the price is explained. I had the same thoughts as you. 🙂

Learn more still didn’t tell price.
