Our school provides comprehensive instruction in ancient Ayurvedic and Vedic healing practices through online courses as well as Hybrid learning (a mix of online and in person training delivery). Our ONLINE format is affordable without compromising on quality. The Hybrid training delivery format requires internship and certain percentage of classes in person in order to qualify for NAMA (National Ayurvedic Medical Association) exam.
The college was established by Husband and Wife team, Monica B Groover, Ph.D. (Manjulali Dasi), and, Pandit Atul Krishna Das. Both wanted to establish an affordable, online college, based on Samkhya as well as Vedantic principles. The team wanted to make Ayurvedic education affordable by using Open Source Learning Management like Moodle. Other teachers include Dr Aparna Dandekar (threeriversayurveda.com), and, Dr Priyanka Rajan, BAMS, Dr Monika Singhal, MBBS. Guest lectures and yoga therapy lectures may be provided by other highly qualified faculty as well.
