Marma points (Marmani) are vital energy points on the body that are important junctures to the energy pathways for healing. The origin of acupuncture or shiatsu of Traditional Chinese Medicine, they are often compared, but though similar, the system and knowledge of Marma Chikitsa is the antecedent, that has been used as an assessment tool, as well as a therapeutic modality for healing body, mind and consciousness for thousands of years.
Students will learn 6 therapeutic flows, how to incorporate Marma into massage and yoga practice along with the Ayurvedic theory that supports safe, therapeutic and optimal practice and self care along with how to incorporate essential oils, small hand crystals and/or a tuning fork, though these items are not required for class participation and training.
This treatment is performed fully clothed, on either a massage table, on the bed or on the floor on a mat.

Reviews:
"This course was wonderful! Most valuable to me was learning and experiencing the points, about the oils and remaining clothed." The demos and practice were great. Chaya was prepared, on time, friendly, and informed.
Aminta Gleim, LMT, Health Educator
"Great Introduction to working with Marmani. I liked the lecture of the background of how Ayurveda works, the experience of the marma points in the body were useful for understanding how they function. I also learned that Ayurveda is a lifestyle and that the more we understand it and apply it, the more harmonious we are with ourselves and the universe. Chaya is very knowledgeable and experienced, with an emotional depth and passion for her practice."
Amanda Bolk, LMT, RYT, Jupiter, FL
"This workshop was amazing! I loved the information that was discussed and put together beyond being able to experience the knowledge. Yoga + Massage + the Marma/Ayurveda will open a new opportunity for my professional life that I have not expected. Integrating what I have learned today will be easy and exciting. It was well put together."
Vayla, LMT, Yoga Nidra & Life Coach Astrologer, Tallahassee, FL
"I really enjoyed the format and the information. The most valuable were the variety of flows presented. I learned that Ayurveda has withstood the test of time. It is a whole system mind/body/spirit which I really felt aligned with this weekend. I most enjoyed the experience of Marma, and working with others, I like the unity." Julia Pozios, Ayurvedic Practitioner, LMT, Hollywood, FL
"This was a great opportunity to do Ayurvedic anything for me! Chaya's teaching style is very open and easy to learn. The instruction of the massage and the step by step protocol, felt comfortable doing it in exact order, but able enough to create any of my own flow if needed. A great intro to the 3 types, V, P, K 🙂 The class as a whole was extremely enjoyable." Justin Feusseur, LMT, Gainesville, FL
