The certificate course to become an Ayurveda health coach (IHK) is the first IHK-certified further training course with Ayurveda or yoga.

In four modules, we systematically guide you through the process of setting up your (partial) self-employment: from finding your business idea and developing your personal business plan to marketing and building your customer base. You will receive valuable tips on how to develop long-term service concepts and how to successfully acquire customers with and without social media.

All the while, you will be supported by a team of experts and a growing community of like-minded Ayurvedis/yogis who are on the same path as you. Experienced health coach and business trainer Win Silvester will provide you with the right tools to successfully implement your vision as a business idea.
