Currently, the Kerala Ayurveda Academy offers programs at two levels: Level 1: The Ayurvedic Wellness Counselor (AWC) Program is a 500 hour program based on the first goal of Ayurveda—Swasthasya Swasthya Rakshanam. At this level the emphasis is on preservation of health and prevention of diseases through Ahara, Vihar and Vichara. After completing this program, students will be able to do Body Constitution analysis and recommend dietary and life style modifications, teach meditation, Pranayama and offer simple Ayurvedic therapies. Students can attend classes on one 2-day weekend per month for 11 months OR opt for Distance Learning (via Webex or by receiving class videos and course manuals by mail). Students will also need to mandatorily complete a Project for successfully completing this Program. |
