Faculty

Meet your teachers

You learn from a BAMS physician with an MD in Ayurveda and more than 17 years of hospital and clinic practice in India, a founder and author with over 25 years in Ayurveda, herbalism and Pancha Karma across the Caribbean, and an integrative health nurse with three decades in healthcare who bridges Ayurveda and western medicine.

Together our faculty brings classical text study, clinical training at the National Institute of Ayurveda in Jaipur, Caribbean plant knowledge and real case mentorship into every class — so what you learn is grounded in lineage and tested in practice.

You are never alone in practice

Mentorship

Mentorship is the spine of everything we teach — not an add-on. One-to-one sessions with a mentor who knows your work, live case rounds where real intakes are reasoned through together, and steady student support so nobody falls behind quietly. It continues after graduation, and our reach extends beyond our own students: active students and graduates from other programs are welcome too.

Hands-on training

Puerto Rico Intensive

Eight days in Isabela where the theory becomes practice. You work side by side with our teaching team on abhyanga and bodywork, pulse and tongue assessment, medicine making with fresh Caribbean plants, clinical cooking, and daily practice — with farm visits and time on the land that grows the medicine. It is the fastest way to build confidence in your hands and the warmest way to meet your classmates in person.

A few minutes on what the training is actually like — the weekly classes, the mentorship, and what it opened up afterward.

The teaching comes straight from the texts, but it never stays theoretical. By the second module I was already changing how I ate, slept and cared for my family.
Kendra — Level 1 graduate
The mentorship is what makes this school different. Having someone review my cases with me every month is why I felt ready to see clients at all.
Rachelle — Level 2 student
The Puerto Rico intensive changed everything. You can read about shirodhara for a year — a week of hands-on practice is another thing entirely.
Courtney — Level 1 graduate
The passion and devotion to teaching is a reflection of the breadth of knowledge and personal practice shared. Creating balance between holding space and guiding is essential, and the school did an incredible job staying tuned into the needs of the group while covering all the ground necessary. As a direct result of studying with them, I now have a consistent, effective personal practice and am inspired and able to share it with others. If you have the opportunity to study with these beautiful souls, I highly recommend you say YES.
Emily — Level 1 graduate
This is The Team that greets you wherever you are, without judgement, with compassion and enduring love. I completed several successive programs with them, each time deepening my awareness, knowledge and ability to share. Through their vast wisdom and attentive care I was guided through a complete purge of old samskaras and emotions that were holding me back. I have experienced a surge of creativity, a boost in my business and a drive to help others, all while feeling balanced and open to possibilities.
Shera — Workshop participant
The style in which Maha Vidya shares their cumulative knowledge has been inspiring and transformative on so many levels. Because of their teachings, I understand health as a way of life, and in my experience there are no better guides in the process. They live and breathe their practice, and they meet each student where they are to help them build a practice to share with others from the ground up. Working with them requires discipline and hard work — and for me, it's been life changing.
