Gillian did a brilliant work and cleared all my concept regarding Ayurveda. the way she interact is really very good and she explained all the concept in very clear tone and simple language wort buy this course must view this one if you are beginner

By Ivan Markovic on 8/16/2021

Very poor transcription, it is actually a kind of automated audio subtitled translation (like the free Youtube ones) and is not always correct. For example Aryuveda spelled RIA or Are you there or something like that, really needs manual translation for those who aren't well aware of specific words in the course or not so good in English. The speaking of the tutor is very very good and calm and easy to understand. Although I miss some more visualisation, because with pictures you will remember better. So far it is good.

By Meaghan Wood on 6/3/2021

Information given is very dense and entirely encyclopedic. There is a lot of knowledge here, but it's very difficult to absorb with few pauses between topics, visual aids, or the opportunity to expand upon the information with instructor extrapolation, exercises, or supplementary resources for each topic.

By Manfred Bräuner on 5/6/2021

The course gave a good insight into the concepts of Ayurvedic nutrition. But there is still a long way to go in order to realize the full potential.

By Paula on 3/31/2021

For the subject offered it is very well presented, if you are a novice there is so much you can learn and I would recommend it to anyone everyone intrigued about Ayurveda.

By Desiree Stovall on 3/22/2021

This course was great. I really enjoyed it. The material was thorough. Gillian is very sweet and will answer your questions/concerns in a very timely manner. Thank you.

This is a great class enjoying it so far - instructor even emailed me back - so good communication. I hope she makes part 2 soon - I agree a quiz would be nice - however, I enjoy getting a certification out of this. It makes me more credible with future clients.

By Wendy Efraimsen on 4/23/2020

This is really a basic foundation. If you are a Yoga Instructor or practice Eastern Medicine or have knowledge on Ayurvedic practices you will want a more advanced class.
