Study the Art of Natural Living
Your Ayurveda Experience
Ayurveda “the health-care system of Yoga”, is the world’s most ancient, comprehensive and natural preventative mind and body wellness. It is recognized by the World Health Organization. The time-tested benefits of Ayurvedic Medicine have been trusted for eons and is available for you to experience in our Ayurvedic Courses, Ayurveda Treatments, Ayurvedic Massage and Ayurvedic Herbal Study.
The Tradition of Yoga and Ayurveda
“Ayurveda works at healing and purifying the body and mind while yoga aims at taking us to Self-realization, which depends upon a purified body and mind. In this way, the foundation of Yoga should be Ayurveda and the Fruit of Ayurvedic should be Yoga.”
Dr. David Frawley (from the book Yoga and Ayurveda).
We incorporate the art and wisdom of Ayurveda into our Yoga Asana Classes, Massage Treatments, Cooking Workshops and Certification Courses. This ensures that your experience and learning is personalized, and particularly effective to meet your health and wellness goals.

Warm Words
“I want to say how much I have appreciated your Ayurveda Course. I think you do a super job of presenting the material and of handling the reactions to it, giving plenty of time to all questions and concerns without deviating from your over-all plan. I especially like the room for humour and rueful confessions, and I congratulate you both on creating such a positive and fun mood. Many thanks!”

Immediately after that I took the 250 hour Ayurvedic Yoga Teacher Course. What an amazing experience! Time spent with AT THE CORE has transformed my daily life and helped me be a more knowledgeable mother and human! Eternally grateful, always.” ~ Liz Raymond
