“Things will change when you do this training, your thoughts will change, your heart will change, your body will change. It is not only a chance to be able to learn and share these teachings with other people but an absolute depth in discovery of the self. When I first started this training I felt like I was in a really good place in my life and now feel more humble, powerful, juicy, loving and resilient than I thought I ever would.  Through this process, I have learned these teachings are more valuable than any penny and will extend from my body and my mind to generations underneath me. I could not recommend this more to every woman and every man to understand and break down the walls of what we believe our health to be.”

“I have finally stepped more fully into my feminine. I have led a very masculine dominated life, and never truly felt my femininity from the heart. I have been working on myself for years now, and Shakti School was the delicious icing on the cake, bringing together everything I have learned and so much more magic to boot. Shakti School gives you the sense of being welcomed unconditionally. The teachers and all staff are just out of this world. If I won the lottery right now, I would gift this experience to women all over the world. Truly life-changing for so many and this is the medicine our planet needs to thrive once more. We all need this safe container in which to flourish and step into our true selves.”

“I feel that this course has beautifully tied in my other interests and knowledge base. It only makes me want to dive deeper in continuing to not only integrate Ayurvedic practices but also create a community. The fire only continues to grow in my belly. The virtual classes made things work for with my schedule. I was working a full time job in education as an administrator during the pandemic. It was difficult to manage, but with the time frame and the people involved in our education, once I had the chance to tune in, I was engaged. These classes are foundational to this changing world. I wish that I would have been able to have my friends and family listen in with me as I was going through these classes because it makes life richer for everybody. What could dramatically and beautifully change in the world if this was more available? I am incredibly fortunate to have found Shakti School to deepen my love for myself and this profound ancient practices that have continued to evolve with the people who carry on this oral tradition.”

“I have become more confident, embodied and empowered in my sense of self since Ayurveda School. I have deep felt understanding of my unique experience as well as the experience of those that I interact with. I loved that there was a range of different teachers that were all so uniquely different. I definitely felt like I resonated and learned more from some more so than others but I pay that to each of us having such unique ways of learning and receiving information. I feel like Shakti School definitely allows everyone to learn in their own unique way by offering different teachers and teaching styles. I would recommend this training to anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of their personal health experience and looking to empower themselves with simple practices, rituals and wisdom to heal themself. This training really invited me to soften into my intuition and my own body based wisdom. It allowed me to keep the structure within my life, but know that structure exists so that I can be soft, feminine and receptive.”

“The moment I came across Shakti School I knew it was something I had to do. Since Ayurveda School, I am more aware of what is going on in my body, mind, and spirit. I came to the realization that I want to work with pregnant women to help them navigate their postpartum journey. I like the way classes were structured and I love that the school is centered around women’s health. Life changing!”

“At first, I hesitated about the monetary investment. However, I knew in my bones that money is never a good reason to not do something. Since beginning with the Shakti school, I have learned to follow my own intuition and trust that everyone’s healing journey is divine & unique to themselves. I love how much content is shared in Ayurveda School. At first it can feel overwhelming, however, I saved the extra reads and other resources for later, and intend to review the course a second time this year – while integrating the other resources I didn’t have room to digest the first time! You receive so much love in the form of guidance, sisterhood, practice of devotion, & if you want to dive deeply into the emotional, spiritual and esoteric realms of life & healing – then this course is for you!”

“Since doing Ayurveda School, I trust my gut- my intuition. I have more power behind my “yes” and my “no”. I also pay more attention to the little details of life & have found myself making lifestyle & health adjustments instinctively to balance my dosha. Katie has a way of giving grace to the material; she allows you to let go of the rules that can be overwhelming and instead guides you to use intuition & what works for your body and life.”

“I have expanded my understanding of self-care beyond my comprehension three years ago. Not only that, but I have gained the knowledge of tradition, ritual, innate wisdom, science, language, philosophy, confidence and community. I am wholly better for it; and now my community will be too. I loved the space-holding: weekly sessions I poured myself into, curriculum with accountability, and connecting in sisterhood. I also agree with the sentiment that Katie shares: Year 1 should be a requirement for all individuals who feel connected to the feminine physicality and energy.”

“I am much more in touch with myself and know better how to identify my own needs and address them using practical tools that were taught during the course. I also feel much more empowered and confident. My new daily Ayurveda practices have proven to be extremely useful to keep me grounded, calm, and happy. I now seem to know when and how to keep myself in a peaceful and harmonious state (most of the time :)) I would absolutely recommend Shakti School for any woman seeking a greater connection to her femininity, her true self, and her own power. The course is well designed and taught by very passionate and competent teachers. The Ayurvedic practices and meditations we learn are life changing and create a safe haven to go back to when life gets too chaotic, or stressful. And last, but not least, just being surrounded by a group of like-minded women, in a completely non-judgmental space, gives you a sense of belonging and safety.”

“How do I explain that my whole being has shifted? We learned of the physical Ayurvedic practices and principles of course, but the biggest changes were deeper than the physical. Throughout my time in Shakti School I learned how to be my own friend, sister and mother. I have a new much kinder approach to my wellness and a deeper awareness for my emotional and subconscious body. Shakti School was life changing. The guidance into self is incredible and so necessary in a world with so much external noise.”

“Since the start of Shakti School, hundreds of things have changed, incrementally and over-time. These changes have deepened the way I interact with the world, widened my lens of compassion for everyone living in the modern world, and softened the relationship I have with myself. My health is by no means perfect, but Shakti School has helped me release the need for perfection and given me tools to widen the window to what is sacred inside me, exactly as I am. I loved the module breakdown of materials, venturing deeply into a topic through the lens of different teachers each and every month was so helpful for seeing this information from lots of different perspectives and understandings. My favorite modules were skincare & herbalism, unraveling the female sexual experience and what pleasure can mean, rediscovering the magic inherent in the female body, and postpartum care. Even if you have no interest in becoming an Ayurvedic Coach or Counselor, this program has given me so many practical and pleasure-centered tools to reach for in times of transition and change (which is all the time in our lives as humans) and I know I will be using the wisdom I gained in the Shakti School everyday for the rest of my life.”

“I have a deeper relationship with my body, with plants, with my breath, and with the world around me. I have gained an understanding of what feminine form means – embodying the beautiful rhythms that it allows instead of being so restrictive with self-imposed rules. My health is still the same but now I have so many tools to nurture and nourish it in a cyclical way of understanding. This training imparts experiential wisdom through a lens that honors both the ancient and modern. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll try things you’ve never tried before. You’ll remember that which you’ve always known. You’ll heal…and in that healing- you’ll become equipped and empowered to share that authentic gift with others. This time in Shakti School has been a sacred virtual space for me through many life happenings over the past two years. From experiencing a second miscarriage and having the FB group supporting me through it to having the incredible opportunity to write an article for LoveFit this past June – what an honor!! ….and so much more. Thank you for everything.”

“After Ayurveda School, now I understand why when certain things in my body are happening I crave “things”. For example sometimes its food, places, or activities. I feel I have a better understanding of the healthy alternatives. As well, as when the cravings will exacerbate the an imbalance. I’d absolutely recommend Level 1 Ayurveda! So much variety.”

“I have been studying Ayurveda for years, but feel like I finally found the program that was made for me within Shakti School. Katie’s approach to Ayurvedic medicine (and healing in general) feels radical and revolutionary, yet simultaneously known and familiar, like coming home to an old and powerful friend. This program covers the basic foundations of Ayurveda in a clear and concise way that is accessible and fun. But it is also so much bigger than Ayurveda. It taps into the essence of healing itself, and our connection to the universal laws of nature that exist outside of any one path or tradition. This course goes way beyond any other that I have come across by asking us to dive deep into our own experience, our own bodies, our own wisdom, and our own power.”

“What I liked most about the program was the variety of different teachers, all bringing their own expertise and enthusiasm for Ayurveda. I would recommend the program for anyone interested in self development, spirituality, and health.”

“Me siento lo más completa y saludable que he estado en mucho tiempo y siendo mi propia guía en el camino. Con sólo tomar el primer nivel eres capaz de hacerte cargo de ti y de acompañar a tu familia y comunidad a tomar mejores decisiones para lo que quieren lograr en sus vidas. Shakti te muestra todas las caras posibles para poder dirigirte al balance de tu Ser. Lo recomiendo ampliamente, hay muchísima información valiosa, docentes de primer nivel y el programa en verdad tiene la herramientas necesarias para llevarte a tomar las riendas de tu vida y comenzar a caminar hacia un lugar más completo, amoroso y saludable.”

“First and foremost, Katie has a great personality; she is able to convey the deepest and most complex knowledge with a sense of simplicity and a good dose of humor. Her team of teachers is amazing, each of them very different but experts in their domains. Of course, we learn of lot and we practice most of it, which is great. I like that it stays practical and applicable to real modern life. But most importantly, I think what I like the most in this training is the sense of sorority that we has developed: I feel part of a tribe of passionate women, from all ages and horizons, searching, learning, sharing and supporting each other. It is a great feeling, it has helped me unleash my feminine power and balance my very masculine tendency. I can see a real difference in my daily life: I am more peaceful, more joyful, more patient, more feminine overall.”

“Before I signed up for Ayurveda School, I knew something was missing. I was struggling to find something deeper than my yoga practice, to feel a deeper connection to my feminine heart, to find a healing routine, to understand the whys and hows of my hormones and to create a more loving relationship to food, nature and the pulsing of my own life force. I truly found all of these things over the past year and I have never felt better. I was especially happy to find a training where I had the freedom to be a part of the classes from my home, on my own time. It really fits my life and I can’t wait to get home every Wednesday night for Ayurveda lecture!”

“Where to begin…..this year has-been a year of self-discovery, surrendering, and self-renewal. Shakti School opened a window to my Spirit, mind, and body. A way to reprocess old patterns of living, thinking, praying, feeling, and eating. A school of innovative teachers, who give 100% of themselves during their time with-you. Shakti’s Ayurveda, feminine form medicine, program, can be comparable to three-years of education at a university. After three months of the first training, I already knew that I would sign up for year two. So, if you are looking for “TRUTH, HONEST, SELF-ACTUALIZATION or a TRIBE”, you have found the school. If you are looking to broaden, your healing modalities or to offer more to your clients then this is the school for you. Get ready for both a personal and professional LIFE-CHANGER.”

“Ayurveda came to me on sacred ground and I knew I had to dive in to Shakti School. It’s been so much more than I could have expected. I wanted to learn about the ancient practices, but have been fulfilled feeling part of a global community of women, connected by Dharma and lineage. Taking these classes on my own time has been invaluable. Studying with teachers across the world can only happen here. Ayurveda school will forever be one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.”

“My goal this past year was to bring in more feminine flow into my life. After going through Ayurveda school I cannot believe how much more in-touch I am with my feminine side. I’ve brought so much of what I’ve been learning to my clients to help them awaken the shakti within them. Body yantra, pelvic play, and surrendering have been my focus this past year. I feel confident to be myself once more.”

“I have always had a passion for health and wellness so when my sister showed me that Katie Silcox had an Ayurveda school it felt like it had been written just for me. I am now 10 months into studying and it was the best decision ever. Being a mum of three life can be very busy and stressful. I have learnt how to love and care for myself and be more in balance so that I am less stressed and calm and our life has definitely benefited. The whole household has now taken on Ayurveda and we eat better, sleep better and spend more time doing what we love. Katie is an incredibly inspiring teacher and her lectures are fun, current and informative. She has created an amazing line-up of teachers each month to add their skills and knowledge to the school too. Joining Ayurveda school was the best decision for me and I can’t wait to see what year two has in store for us. Emily xxx”

“This past year with Shakti School has brought so much more into my life than I had hoped for. I joined the 300-hour Ayurveda training because I wanted to have a better grounding in ayurveda to bring to my offerings and trainings for my company, Om Fairy. Within the first month I gained so much clarity around the basics of ayurveda that I hadn’t in previous trainings. As the year went on, I found the answers to most of the health questions I’ve had over the past years that have went unanswered by traditional allopathic doctors, which has resulted in me feeling better than ever. From a business perspective, this course has inspired me to step fully into the mission of my business, to inspire trust in your own wisdom and intuition. Katie has created an unbelievable program that taps into best of all worlds. Multiple viewpoints from some of most influential teachers in the realm of yoga and ayurveda. The clarity this course has given me has helped fully blossom the offerings I had visions of coming into this school a year ago.”

“Level 2 of Ayurveda School allowed me to integrate the knowledge I gained from Level 1. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I learned in Level 1 while diving deeper into the vast ocean of Katie’s wisdom partnered with the amazing roster of experts in the field of all things Ayurveda I will admit my Ayurveda school has been my gift to myself. This program has allowed me to heal myself and soar in my life. It is certainly the best investment in myself that I have ever made!”

Shakti School completely changed my life. I see things differently, I feel different, I want completely different things. A combination of the Ayurveda program and the yoga trainings completely transformed me.

Shakti School’s Ayurveda program has been nothing shy of life changing for me. Before I started this course I was searching for a deeper and more meaningful aspect of yoga, self care, and life in general. This course has provided all of that and more. I feel nourished and supported by the teachings of Ayurveda, and within the container of the Shakti School community I feel seen, heard, and held in true feminine power. The teachings offered up are potent tools of self transformation, and the teachers transmitting this ancient wisdom are passionate, knowledgeable guides in this journey. This program IS the road less traveled, a journey back to your own heart, and an exploration of self that will bring you to your highest calling, whatever that may be.

My life has completely changed since taking this course. To pin-point on a specific aspect would be literally impossible. However, my view of life and how to approach it’s challenges has completly changed. I have been provided tools to tap into the deepest parts of me that have been crying for attention and I wasn’t even aware. I am beginning to heal emotional and generational patterns that I have longed to heal. My relationships with those I love are becoming deeper as I am beginning to see that we are all holding a sense of trauma that is causing us to respond in different ways. I am being able to show up with more love and compassion in those situations. I loved that the program allowed for complete flexibility. Working full time, I was unable to attend any live classes. However, through the recordings I felt completely connected and was able to take the course at the pace that worked well with me. Especially during the more challenging modules that I felt I needed to work through and would often take up to a week to complete. I am forever grateful for the first week in which Katie spoke so deep to my heart in releasing me from the fear of “adding” something to my life in a negative way and helped me realize I could do it at my own pace, for that I will FOREVER be grateful for!

I’m more connected to my body, more present with Her. I deepened my connection to the divine and to my Feminine energy, which improved all relationships around me. I also feel more energized and ‘clearer’ in my body, mind and spirit. this course also confirmed that my path it coaching other women and doing it in the most holistic and feminine way. Thank you! The enjoyed the variety of themes (as a proper Sagittarius I’m curious about EVERYTHING) and the expertise of the different teachers. All amazing women! I appreciate the fact that we can always go back to the lessons and rewatch them and download lessons’ pdfs! so I would say the website platform in general is really functional. I also really like the fact that we can connect through the online forum.

I enjoyed the Nutrition section the most! It aligned so much with my interests and professional work, and gave me an incredible sense of the deep-soul food (knowledge) I was missing. Without a single doubt – this is the course I would recommend to all of my friends. Thank you for a beautiful experience!

I loved the feminine approach to everything that we learned. In the past, I had studied Ayurveda and felt very boxed in by the rules. Through the Shakti School, I have learned to listen deeply to what my body needs while applying the healing principles of Ayurveda and feminine form medicine. I would absolutely recommend the training because it is very holistic and touches on so many elements of the spiritual, physical, mental, and emotional. There is something for everyone. I think it led a lot of people to find their direction because we delved deep into so many new and different areas, that we could really see what resonated with our hearts and follow that passion. There is a lot of healing available through this training if you put the work in. I’m really grateful to Katie, Amaury, and all of the teachers at the Shakti School for sharing their wisdom with us. I leave the program with a greater sense of clarity in my purpose, feeling inspired and much more prepared to help others in this world in a way that feels very meaningful for me.

Discovering yoga many years ago helped me to connect all the puzzle pieces of my life. Ayurveda Shakti-School-style deepened and solidified everything I already knew spiritually, and the practical routines I learned have been invaluable. I feel I know myself, the way my body works and what it needs much better. I highly recommend Shakti School. It is a unique training that is deeply satisfying in so many ways, like a nutritious delicious dish. Each different teacher brings her own special way to cook, spice and serve Ayurvedic wisdom. It is well organized with the mixture of weekly lectures and bi-monthly office hours. One of the best parts of the training is the bond formed between all the students. I’m 59 and most other women are in their 20s and 30s, but I never felt any difference between us. Our souls beat to the same rhythm. The support and wisdom in this group is heartwarming. I’ve taken many trainings and this is not always the case. We are all in Shakti School because we care and to help make the world a better place, and it’s tangible. This training attracts seekers. The spiritual lessons are mind-blowing! I love it when Katie preaches! I love the mind/emotional work, the body Yantras, Mary T.’s power point lectures (she’s so thorough) and all the other teachers are fantastic. I need to watch all the lessons again. They are such a wealth of knowledge. Laurel is a gem in Office Hours, so nurturing and supportive! She explains so many things we didn’t understand during the lectures and makes it so relatable.

I absolutely recommend this course! This course provides so much wisdom as well as space to dive into practices and integrate each aspect into your life in a way that feels right uniquely for you and your body. I am so much more aware of how i through myself out of balance and into stress. This course has provided me with the tools, awareness and confidence I needed to step unapologetically into my dharma and into my truth. I will never forget nor deviate far from the magic and wisdom that this course has poured into my heart and life. Katie is spirit animal and her raw, real, beauty will make you fall in love with all the wild, wonderous aspects of your own wonderful, witchy, woman self! Thank you with all of my heart for the blessing and experience of Shakti School.

In the last 12 months I had changes I didn’t had in the last 10 years! I’ll just say no more painful menstrual cramps, daily bowel movements, best skin ever and I have created my own business! This still feels crazy to me, I love it! The embodiment and experiencing part was my favorite, it already started with Katie saying: feel into your body, what doshas or elements of nature do you most feel in your body, is it wind, earth, fire or water? Completely another approach to what I knew about doshas and ayurveda up until that point. Just blew my mind! This  should be implemented in every womens life, like real school is, we should all know and experience this embodied informations as soon as possible. Thank you from the bottom of my whole body for creating this programme, it absolutely changed my life in a completely unexpected way! I had no idea what was gonna happen, I just knew from the beginning it’s going to be so much fun and it’s going to be great! And so it was, and on top of that I got to create my own business and share my passion!

This program has deepened my knowledge and connection to myself, my body, and nature in powerful ways. It has changed my life (personal and professional) forever. I have made friends who I know will be life long. I think that if everyone went through this training and expanded their world view through Ayurvedic knowledge, and specifically the feminine form taught in the Shakti School the world would be a much more joy-filled and peaceful place. I loved Katie’s live lectures. Coming together as a group live was very special and I was always so grateful to be there! Having her back was always a treat. Also, the diversity of teachers. I loved all of the different backgrounds and perspectives. Siva’s discussions around the emotional links were especially interesting to me too. I loved the variety of learning environments – live lectures, office hours (so so valuable!!), and Ayurveda buddies.

During the last year, as a yoga instructor, I intuitively started to add meditation and the importance of food to support the body to my clients. But I needed something else to support that and ‘came across’ the Shakti School. The universe gives us what we need when we need it, right!? The Shakti School gives us the tools to be our authentic selves and to go out into the world to share our medicine.

Women in general whole heartedly will benefit from this even if its just for personal insight, although I feel like the more you get into it through out the year you just eventually want to share it or do something with it to spread that knowledge and share with other women. Ahhh the empowerment, confidence, love, bliss, truth that Shakti School is rare to find these days in programs. I have a deeper self awareness on how to meet my needs and take radical responsibility and honesty for my life. I appreciated all the different teachers and their backgrounds. So unique and having variety just makes things so much juicier to understand and perceive!

To anyone considering joining this program here is your YES sign! Embarking on this journey to connect with Ayurveda and the ancient lineage not only helps you heal, but it also helps the earth heal. When respected, honored, and implemented correctly you have the power to unveil all blockages and message them out of your physical and emotional body. Not only will you become more comfortable, confident, and in love with the unique nature of YOU, but you will be able to help others do the same. I am more connected to my physical and emotional body’s wants and needs. My digestion has improved so much, that I no longer need to take supplements. I feel more comfortable and confident in who I am and how I show up in this world. THANK YOU.

I appreciate Katie’s take on Ayurveda. I think incorporating our own personal lineage and life experiences into our Ayurvedic journey brings a whole new, fully embodied approach to this ancient wisdom of life-care. I used a lot of knowledge while trying to conceive and was then pregnant throughout most of Shakti School. I am very excited to start reintegrating more practices now in the postpartum period, and am excited to share with my daughter as she grows.

This program should be part of curriculum in all public schools as it isn’t just about Ayurveda, but a way back to oneself and unity of body, mind and soul. I’m more tuned into my physical and emotional body. I often ask for the guidance and learn to listen. I feel more in balance and better equipped for tools to pick myself up. I am forever grateful for being immersed in this soul warming experience with all the women, both teachers and students.

I would highly recommend this training to anyone who is slightly interested. She will not be disappointment. It was better than I could have imagined – and I’m often overly optimistic 🙂 The teachings are exactly what I need to hear when I need to hear them. The curriculum truly promotes health in all areas – physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. And the community of women was amazing. I feel like I have found my tribe. I am so much more aware of how I’m feeling at any given moment and feel empowered to make lifestyle choices that will help me feel better. I am also more in tune with how my emotions affect my physical health.

my whole life has changed for the better. This program allowed to first deepen and understand how to simply identify the different emotions, and states of health or imbalance in my personal life. and then it gave me the real tools to help with what i had identified. that teachers where so inspiring and clear and gave me what to aspire to as a the practitioner i hope to become. loyal to the tradition, but modern and kind in the approach. I look forward to level 2, and actively recommend this program to anyone interested in learning about ayurveda in an in depth program. thank you, really from the bottom of my heart. this program changed my life for the positive and i feel so much more stable, more connected to the linage and excited about the future.

The teachings are vital for women in our society at this moment in time! It’s like all the stuff we should have learned growing up. It is so important to learn how to process our feelings, thoughts, and emotions, and have a true connection to ourselves and the divine creative force! Katie and her expert team of healers, leaders, and teachers are top notch and translate the information and pass it along in such a way to keep you ignited and sparked and take your own healing in your own hands! THANK YOU! SAT NAM

I would absolutely recommend this training. I truly wish this was an offering to all women, all girls as part of our upbringing and in schools. This is such a unique training. I feel really really blessed to have found Shakti School. I enjoyed the live classes in which the energy could be felt vs. only having an evergreen recorded program – the teachings related to our current time, current events and that was huge in 2020. The diverse mix of class experiences: philosophical learnings, hands on cooking, scientific hard skills, and engaging in practices. The follow-up time in office hours, The real-time practices of tantra and Sadhana. And I liked that the exam is open book! I learned a lot taking the exams because I had to dive deep into the texts.

Although there is SO much to learn in Ayurveda, the fundamental basics of the science overlap to form a way of thinking and seeing instead of a memorization strategy. This allows such a strong foundation to build on the knowledge with true understanding. I also love the incorporation of the self, the subtle Ayurveda, the feminine form that calls on our teachers to have us move around/dance, meditate or ground ourselves before each class. The VP in me wants to go go go and doesn’t feel there is enough time in the day, so this was very healing to have built into the classes. It allows me to give myself permission to do this outside of my classes as well. Thank you for that grace. Even if I wasn’t planning on using this in my career (which I am), I would’ve still been so eternally grateful for the information I learned. I truly feel like I leveled up in life in such a huge way. I am not only able to be there for myself in a deeper way, but my community and family as well. It is stabilizing and enriching.

I would and have highly recommended this training program to so many women who are looking to better themselves and to better the world. It’s amazing what we can do when we are self empowered through knowledge and experience. All things are possible. My faith has exponentially increased since the start of this course. I have always heard all things are possible, but now I truly now and believe it in my bones. This is the foundation for my dreams. I also have much more vitality, self awareness, and passion for life and sharing life/love.
