Why Ayurveda in Nashville?
Nashville's wellness market has grown rapidly through the 2010s and 2020s alongside the metro's broader cultural and economic ascent. Our cohorts here include music-industry professionals, healthcare workers, and creative-class transplants. Note: Tennessee prohibits non-licensed naturopathy practice, so the Holistic Naturopathy program is excluded from Nashville.
For students of Ayurveda specifically, Nashville's scene is a particularly good match: music industry pipeline. naturopathy program excluded by tennessee regulation. The local cohort runs in venue partners around East Nashville, Germantown, 12 South, with public transit and parking accessible from across the metro.
Nashville students are often 30-50, with backgrounds in music industry (touring musicians, songwriters, record-label staff), healthcare (Vanderbilt is a major employer), and the creative class. The music-industry cohort representation is unusually high in our network.
What you'll be training in.
For a deeper introduction to Ayurveda as a practice tradition, see the full program page.
Ayurveda is the traditional medical system of India, with documented roots going back at least three thousand years (the Caraka Samhita and Sushruta Samhita, foundational classical texts, were compiled around 200 BCE to 200 CE from earlier oral traditions). It is one of the world's oldest continuously-practiced wellness systems and remains widely practiced in India today, where Ayurvedic doctors are state-licensed alongside biomedical practitioners.
Ayurveda's central framework is the three doshas: vata (the subtle, mobile, dry principle associated with movement and the nervous system), pitta (the transformative, warm, sharp principle associated with digestion and metabolism), and kapha (the stable, cool, moist principle associated with structure and lubrication). Every individual carries a specific constitutional balance of the three (prakriti) and a specific current imbalance (vikriti); Ayurvedic recommendations work to bring the current state back toward the constitutional baseline through food, lifestyle, herbs, and seasonal routines.
