This program changed my life
From Ayurveda student to six-figure business owner and educator
I've spent the last decade exploring just how many opportunities there are to build a career teaching Ayurveda.
What began as a 10-week program teaching Ayurvedic daily routines from my living room has grown into a six-figure business that includes online courses, workshops, seasonal cleanses, corporate wellness programs, and a membership that reaches students around the world.
Along the way, I've learned what it takes to turn an Ayurvedic education into a sustainable business, from creating programs people want to buy to finding an audience, marketing my work, and building a schedule that fits my life.
Today, I get to bring that experience back to Shakti School as the Business & Marketing teacher for Levels 1 and 2, helping the next generation of Ayurvedic educators explore what's possible for their own careers.

What happens when we work together
I can breathe to my full capacity now again
"This feels like a huuuge weight has been taken off my back, and off my mind - and onto a nice, easy-to-manage (and easy-to-glance) system that is evolving here. I can breathe to my full capacity now again, seeing where I'm going, and how I'm getting there.
Thank you so so much Carly Banks. I highly recommend getting in touch with her for business advice.
I have to drop some love down on Carly Banks too. We had a call yesterday and I feel SO much clearer on my business goals and possibilities, hearing about how she structured her own business. I told her I wanted to lie on the ground afterwards because I felt so relieved 😃 I highly recommend getting in touch with her for business advice.
I wouldn't trade $100,000 for my time working with Carly Banks because I am learning so so much!
She has helped me to understand how to make my course evergreen, how to use a deadline funnel, and how to REALLY take advantage of marketing to the people I have access to as well as how to add value that will entice more people to sign up. She has amazing vision and is happy to answer ALLLLLLL of my many questions and listen when I whine about my fear of webinars.
WHY I RECOMMEND SHAKTI SCHOOL
Who teaches you matters.
The founder of Shakti School hasn't just spent decades studying and teaching Ayurveda. Katie Silcox is a New York Times bestselling author and one of the most recognizable voices bringing Ayurveda into Western wellness culture.
And that matters to me, especially if you're considering Ayurveda as a career.
A proper Ayurvedic education isn't just about what you're being taught. It's about how your teachers are teaching it.
You can study the doshas, gunas, dhatus, and classical principles of Ayurveda in a textbook.
But if you want to make a career out of this work, you need to learn how to take that knowledge and communicate it in ways that people can understand, connect with, and use in their lives.
One of the reasons I recommend Shakti School is the calibre and diversity of its teaching faculty.
Katie has brought together people who have spent years studying and practising Ayurveda, but who have also taken their knowledge beyond the classroom.
They've written books, built practices, created educational programs, spoken on stages, and shared their work with audiences well beyond the Ayurvedic community.
If you're hoping to become an Ayurvedic educator, practitioner, or business owner, there's a lot to learn from people who've built careers doing this work.
A few of the teachers you'll learn from
Katie Silcox
Founder of Shakti School and New York Times bestselling author of Healthy, Happy, Sexy. Katie has built her career around sharing Ayurveda and yogic wisdom through books, teaching, speaking, and the school itself.
Nidhi Pandya
A third-generation Ayurvedic practitioner raised in a family of Ayurvedic healers. Nidhi brings traditional teachings and classical principles into conversations that modern students can understand and apply.
Mary Thompson
An Ayurvedacharya and experienced educator who has spent years teaching the foundations of Ayurveda and helping students understand how those principles apply to health and daily life.
Dr. John Douillard
Ayurvedic practitioner, author, and founder of LifeSpa. John has spent decades sharing Ayurveda through clinical work, books, educational programs, and public teaching.
And you'll be learning from me, too
I'll be teaching Business & Marketing in both Levels 1 and 2 at Shakti School, helping you figure out how to take everything you're learning about Ayurveda and turn it into work you love doing. And I bring a fair bit of firsthand experience to those classes.
When I started teaching Ayurveda in 2016, I had no background in holistic healthcare, no following, no email list, and not even a yoga teacher training certification.
My first paid program had two students. The second time, four.
A lot has happened since then.
- More than 500,000 people have taken my Ayurvedic dosha quiz.
- Over 3,000 students have joined my Everyday Ayurveda and seasonal detox programs.
- I've developed physical products sold in Canadian retail stores, led retreats, and written for publications including mindbodygreen and Thrive Global.
- I've taught Ayurveda to UBC medical students, hospital staff, and midwives, and developed corporate wellness programming for Shopify.
Along the way, I've built a six-figure Ayurveda business.
Through courses, consultations, memberships, workshops, and corporate programs.
I've learned how to grow it, how to simplify it, and how to make a good living without spending every waking hour working.
For the past three years, I've also been helping other Ayurvedic professionals develop their offers, find clients, and build businesses around their expertise.
And that's why I'm particular about who you learn from.
I want you studying with people who understand Ayurveda deeply and have experience building successful careers sharing it.
That's one of the biggest reasons I recommend Shakti School.

I earn a commission if you enroll through my links, at no additional cost to you, and you'll receive the exclusive bonuses outlined on this page.
