Student testimonials
"I have taken three courses . . . . with Khabir in addition to my studies, to learn from Khabir what I could not have learned from any other course or book studies. . . . the hands-on practice, his vast knowledge on the subject of Ayurveda and his "life long" experience with the herbs and remedies is what he has to offer to his students and clients alike. This cannot be found in the books. Khabir is a true Master of the Herbs . . ." Ilse Oliver, Ventura, CA. April 2018
