Anuradha says
I have done my A/L exams in 2010 in Bio stream. Currently I am working in a Private section (which is not related to Bio stream) Since I have been interesting in Ayurvedic healings , I would like to learn about it. Apart from that I have participated to a Yoga class and I have a little knowledge about yoga healing as well. Does your institute offer such opportunities for people like us? If yes, please let me know the requirements regarding this.
Hiran says
Please call the institute
