Fundamental Ayurveda is a signature SATYA module not to be missed.

- the foundations of Ayurvedic constitutional analysis
- root cause identification
- lifestyle design to optimise your innate nature

Rooted in India’s ancient science of living life to its fullest potential, Fundamental Ayurveda is guided by Umā, who has dedicated decades to Ayurveda’s living wisdom and age-old traditions.
With Umā, Ayurveda comes alive in a faithful, dynamic and digestible way that I haven’t wholly experienced with other teachers. From simple daily practices to the greater context that she uniquely weaves with Yoga and classical Tantra, I am satiated on multiple levels.”

Ayurveda is for me the most amazing gift a human being can receive.
I never thought that this richness of health would be found in making such simple changes. It’s all about aligning yourself with natural rhythms. I’ve learned that feeling good and feeling healthy is not the same thing.
I’ve experienced what going with Nature is and what it does to your whole system. With Ayurveda I am experiencing a whole new way of being; I feel alive for the first time in my life. Ayurveda is a science, a philosophy, a lifestyle, but mostly a choice. I’ve made the choice of growing healthy, and this has been the most important choice I’ve made in my life.READ MORE >> Banchitta, México, Artist

It is difficult to describe someone like Umā…No words would be enough to capture the deep embodied wisdom, subtlety, kindness and potency offered by this rare and precious healer.
I had been curious about Ayurveda and had tried working with a few different practitioners. But it wasn’t until I met Umā that a dramatic shift occurred in my healing process for all layers of my being. Physical, emotional, spiritual. In my experience, this usually happens when the energy and guidance being given is coming from a deeply embodied, loving place and intention.
Umā is one of the most present listeners I’ve ever encountered, holding space with gentle curiosity and helping connect dots, providing insightful, intuitive guidance, shifting from week to week as necessary. Her understanding of this ancient lineage, the elemental nature of existence, our body and connection within and without allow her to guide in a way that is absolutely exceptional. I am truly grateful that the universe brought Umā in my life at the most perfect time, when I was ready to receive her teachings and perceive the beauty and rarity of the wisdom being in front of me.READ MORE >> Z., USA
I had several imbalances that were manifesting physically when I initially met Umā. The implementation of her guidance has allowed my body to become healthy, radiant, deeply alive, soft, available and connected. I have recommended her to my dearest friends and will recommend her to anyone who wants to heal and thrive.”
