Thank you so much to Nathan Synge and Ayurvedic Yoga Massage Institute for the fantastic training in Levels 1,2 and 3. Nathan was a wonderful teacher, really thorough, highly skilled and very patient. I’m so pleased to have found this style of massage and have had great feedback from my clients since qualifying. It is amazing how much you learn over the 6 days and at the end you will feel confident and able to give a really beneficial Ayurvedic Yoga Massage to others. Can’t wait to do Level 4, thank you

My course with AYM institute was a delight from start to finish. From initial consultation with James, who took the time to answer all my questions, as well as going above and beyond to organise last minute training days so that I could complete by the end of the year. The course itself was delivered by Nathan, and we had just the best time! He was so knowledgeable and created such a wonderfully held learning environment for me and my classmate to explore all the marvellous material and ensured we had ample time for practice and sharing our thoughts and ideas, making it a concise and comprehensive training. I feel so confident in my abilities to deliver this wonderful massage, thanks to this brilliant school! What a wonderful experience! I'll be back to study level 4!

Had a great experience learning Ayurvedic Yoga Massage with Nathan. Classes were a really good pace... relaxed but challenging which I think resulted in everybody exceeding their expectations of what they could achieve. It really was exactly what I was looking for in terms of a massage technique which is really comprehensive and full body, it's lovely to give and receive and you are capable of giving a professional massage by the end of 3 weekends. This makes it feasible gain this skill that could lead to diversifying you career, without having to quit your day job! Thanks Nathan and the rest of the AYM team - I'm really grateful for the opportunity!

I did the 8 day diploma course in Ibiza with James and I never imagined that I could learn, grow and feel so much in such a short amount of time. You can feel the years of experience James has and the way he teaches is so effective in allowing you to take in information and remember it. He creates such a supportive, encouraging and nurturing space, I had never done any sort of body work before and I felt happy and confident throughout the training and I left feeling very excited to share the treatment with everyone. I couldn't recommend this enough if it is something you are looking in to. Thank you James and Ellie for sharing your knowledge, wisdom and love and for a life changing week I will never forget.

What an wonderful experience! I saw this course advertised in a yoga studio and was drawn to it, despite having no experience in massage, holistic therapies or even yoga at the time. However, it was one of the best decisions - I really think this course and the massage itself, helped to shift my perspectives and energies, and I feel like a different person now. Nathan our teacher, was amazing - so patient and kind, and he had plenty of experience to draw upon. The massage itself is really unique, and I think it's well worth doing if you're a massage therapist, energy worker, yoga teacher, or even like me if you're feeling drawn to it!

Amazing course. The retreat in West Sussex was the perfect venue. Spending 7 days with like minded people, all of whom had their own stories and experiences, really opened up the stage for this. My fellow students had so much advice to share. AYM Institute had everything planned to perfection. From the venue to the food. I took so much more than just the teachings. Nathan was approachable and friendly. He had so much knowledge and was so willing to share it. I couldn't have wished for more. It has pushed me on with my career. It's enabled my partner and I to open our own Yoga and massage studio. I couldn't have done this without the retreat.

Taking the Ayurvedic Yoga Massage course was literally one of the best decisions I have made this year. I had many questions floating around my head : am I ready for it, am I really made for it, what about the money, should I keep digging for another course ? There are so many options out it can be quite daunting to settle down for one thing. All these thoughts instantly dissipated as we started the course. It was a really powerful experience that reminded me of the infinite source of excitement and curiosity inside me, that little spark that dissipates all the mind clutter, the yearning to learn and develop in a non-pressure environment but only with an open inquisitive mind, sharing knowledge in a very experiential way. I felt very supported in my learning journey throughout the course and after. James is an excellent teacher and it was truly amazing to meet and learn from him. We learnt so much, through observing, repeating, practicing on our fellow trainees and in turn receiving and feeling the techniques. Our little community throughout those 6 days made the magic happen ! If you're considering taking this course I can only highly recommend to go ahead. I had no previous particular massage experience and after this intensive course I now feel ready to embrace the beginning of my journey sharing this beautiful healing practice and never stopping to learn. DO IT !!!

Highly recommend ✨ I took the level 1,2&3 Diploma in AYM in Bristol with James and it was wonderful! In only 6 days I learned so much and feel confident to continue delivering this amazing massage modality despite never having massaged before. I met some magical people and James is so knowledgeable and made the training fun and lighthearted.

The best course I have ever done! I took my AYM course in Ibiza with James. It was an intensive 8 days training in which we learn through lots of practise, get great knowleadge about the body and how to carry the session in its authentic form . It was also great to recieve lots of massages and get rid of our own aches, too. James creates very comfortable environment and we all had good fun. I am super excited to start practise aym. 💫

What an amazing experience. If you're a yoga teacher or if your practice means a lot to you I highly recommend AYM – it took my experience and appreciation of yoga to a whole new level. First up, it's authentic and this was very important to me. Secondly, the instruction was spot on – each technique was slowly demonstrated (in an almost mesmerising way) and described, followed by closely-supervised personal practice. All of the tutors were not only knowledgeable but very supportive – I never felt any pressure when it came to personal practice. This meant that the environment was perfect for learning and even though there were quite a few techniques to learn, it never felt overwhelming. Ayurvedic yoga massage is not only unique, I find it to be extremely therapeutic, as a recipient and as a provider. And even if you don't intend to become a practitioner, I would say deeply immersing yourself in the AYM course for several days is one of the best ways to be kind to yourself. Thank you James, Nathan and Steve.

I attendee AYM course with James and Ellie in Ibiza in October, I had previvious experience of Ayurvedic massage which I learned in India and I wanted to deepen my knowledge of body work integrating better understanding of anatomy and I wanted to learn the deep stretches that this wonderful healing technique offers. I am very please to have chosen AYM Institute UK after various considerations, the course was very informative and comprehensive of many different variations as well as contraindications for different bodies and issues, it allowed me to improve greatly my skills and feel very confident about giving a full one hour and half treatment to my clients and be able to heal their body and mind with awareness of touch. I recommend this course you want to learn massage or if like me you are looking to develop further your skills. Thank you James and Ellie.

I had an absolutely delightful experience training for the Ayurvedic Yoga Massage Diploma with the AYM Institute UK. The course material that was taught and presented by James Winstanely is brilliant in its simplicity, structure and execution. I felt truly honoured to have an opportunity to be shown this unique massage sequence, especially knowing it's an authentic reflection of teachings once shared with James by the AYM Massage founder Kusum Modak. Before training with AYM Institute, I have completed Level 1 Ayurvedic Yoga Massage Training with Despina at Ayurvedic Yoga Massage UK. While the course was good, it is important to mention that it was delivered under completely different premise and presented with various massage adaptations that at times that felt slightly overwhelming and do differ from the original AYM modality. Due to comprehensive delivery, kind supervision and thoughtful guidance that was present throughout the entirety of the course led by James, I am confident and excited to share this grounding and healing massage technique with other individuals and hoping to train with Ayurvedic Yoga Massage Institute UK for their Advanced Practitioner certificate in the near future.

Not enough words can explain how fantastic this course and experience was for me. James and Ellie were amazing teachers and I would totally recommend this course for anyone wanting to become a therapist and expanded there body awareness. I am feeling very connected with my self and have come away from this course feeling more open and focussed. So thanks for sharing AYM love and light.

I have learned so much from James and his amazing massage school of Ayurvedic Yoga Massage, during my 2 courses as a student and then as a course assistant. I had no previous experience of giving massage, yet James and his team are so experienced and knowledgeable that I gained so much from the trainings and I was hooked after the first day. I have worked as an AYM massage therapist in London and Sri Lanka and continue to love the technique and have very positive feedback from clients. It’s an honour to do this healing work, and I feel so equipped with James’ syllabus and encouragement behind me.

What a privilege it is to be part of a beautiful tribe of people that are lucky enough to have been guided and taught this specialised therapy. Nathan our guru, guide and teacher was amazing from start to finish... he always took the time to explain things, no question was ever too silly. Watching him demonstrate was almost like a meditation, each and every move was made with such a sensitive and in-tune touch it’s so much more than a massage. Being surrounded by nature and the outdoors was (in my experience) the best way of soaking up every bit of AYM and what it was all about. I came away with such a magical new craft and some life long friends!

James holds a warm space & shares his knowledge, experience & humour generously! !- I I highly recommend this course. It will give you a good foundation in bodywork or for existing bodyworkers it will inspire and invigorate your skills and practice!

I did the Ayurvedic Massage Training with James Winstanley in London in 2005, and to this day it is still the single best training I have ever done. Although it was technically of a very high quality, and has boosted my own business, it was James's human-ness and huge open heart that really made this so fantastic. I don't know how he did it, but he managed to make every single participant feel very special. It was well worth the money, and I can't believe he doesn't charge more for this! Thank you James, for everything!!

James Winstanley is as talented of a massage instructor as you are likely to meet. Yes, you will learn about the fascia, and the skeletal structure, but it’s his larger perspective and his wit that will feed your curiosity and have you moving forward and deepening your own practice of ayurvedic massage. I first took one of his classes in 2013, and cannot recommend the experience more highly. As a classically trained acupuncturist myself, I have found his teaching rooted in deep wisdom, and respect for tradition, continuing the teachings of Kusum Modak. His classes are a wonderful experience for all involved. And in the end, you get a diploma. What more could you ask more?!

The training was insightful and extensive. I am very happy with Nathan, who is an absolute treasure, as my teacher and mentor. My clients love this treatment too. Wonderful life changing gift.

I had a brilliant experience with the AYM institute. The training was top notch, lead by charismatic teachers that were able to transmit a wealth of knowledge whilst also keeping the process enjoyable and relaxing. Highly recommended 👌
