Why Study with Isabela?

Both science and art, Ayurveda has been tested over and over and remains reliable for women of all ages, skin types and colour. We will focus on your nature, your attributes, your gifts, and learn how to nurture them with nature's purest products.

Isabela teaches practical knowledge adapted to students' current needs in a progressive manner. How, why and what if questions are welcome.

Interactive Learning

Students can interact on Zoom and ask questions in class and by email about their projects.

Comprehensive Resources

Receive recipes, tips, personal anecdotes and reference documents.

Empowering Creativity

The ultimate goal is to enable you to develop your own recipes, to meet your skin's changing needs wherever you live, according to your own creativity.

Questions About the Program

None. The program begins with foundations and builds progressively. Curiosity and a willingness to explore are what matter most.
A detailed list will be provided before the program begins. Most ingredients are easily accessible, and guidance is given for sourcing specialty items.
Season 1 builds foundational knowledge, so starting from the beginning is recommended. However, individual circumstances can be discussed.
While the language often addresses women, the principles apply to anyone interested in natural skincare and self-knowledge.
Recordings and materials are provided weekly. You can review at your own pace and reach out with questions.

Ready to Begin Your Journey?

Join us this fall for Season 1 and discover the beauty that has always been within you, waiting to be nurtured with nature's wisdom.
