TESTIMONIALS

Training at the MAYI Yoga Academy was wonderful. The facilities were amazing, and everybody around was friendly. The instructor was really clear and helpful in her teaching. She was really hands on so that we could not only see but really feel what it was that we were learning. I enjoyed being a part of this course and would definitely recommend it to anyone interested in Ayurveda techniques.

This course was amazing and I would recommend it to all. Classes included practical technique demonstrations and in-depth theoretical knowledge of Master Manisekaran, followed by us taking turns to apply the techniques to our partners. This was a brilliant addition to the class as it allowed us to easily grasp the methods learned and experience first hand the powerful and deeply relaxing effects of Ayurvedic massage. Thank you.

As an IYIC graduate, I decided to take up the AMTC upon learning that Yoga and Ayurveda are sister practices. Ayurveda involves more than just massage to relieve stress and body aches; it increases circulation, stimulates the lymphatic system and increases the flow of life force to cleanse and revitalise the body. The ingredients used are 100% natural, nourishing our skin and helping to delay aging. Thus I feel that Ayurvedic massage is much more effective than other types of commercialized massage. I’m happy that I have learned this course for myself and to provide my students with a natural, effective method to reduce stress, cure body pains and prolong beauty.

Since completing the Ayurveda Massage Therapist Course (AMTC) course from MAYI I have been practicing some of the therapies such as Shiro Abhyanga (head massage) and Vashti (therapy for joints). Hearing my clients tell me they feel pain relief and much better after our sessions make me so happy, I’m glad I am able to provide them with effective solutions. Thank you, MAYI, for guiding me to take up this course!

When I made the decision to take the course, I was expecting to learn Ayurveda massage techniques only. On the second day, I realised that it has also helped me learn more about myself and how to improve my life. Now I know that Ayurveda is life.

I took the course and attended the class with professional teachers. Now I realise how our thoughts affect our health, our feelings, and our behavior. And by changing that, we can help ourselves and others. My course was 5 intensive days and have triggered me to learn Ayurveda in deeper depth after this.The teachers and staff are very friendly and generous in sharing their knowledge. Since I’m already a spa masseuse, I learned tips to grow as a therapist

Ayurveda has always been my interest and I have read about it extensively before attending this course. This time it was the real thing and the hands on practical session was very involving for me. I couldn’t help but test out the methods immediately and gave my mum a leg massage which she loved! I can’t wait for the next lesson, to master more exciting new techniques and share with my loved ones.
