am looking to spend a month (preferably starting in October 2007) or longer in India to learn basic Ayurveda theory. I am also very interested in Ayurvedic Massage and Beauty therapies. I know that to truly learn Ayurveda I would need much more education/time than this and a much more detailed program. Here are a few of the locations and programs I have found that I am considering:

Kerala:
1. ITTA, Inc [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
2. Kerala Ayurveda [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Coonoor:
The Ayurveda Retreat [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

New Delhi:
Kerala Ayurveda Panchakarma Centre Private Limited [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Mysore:
Indus Valley Ayurvedic Centre [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Looking for advice from students who have attended any of these schools or who know of any other schools that I should consider.

You will have to go to kerela it's called god's own country.and theyare the master's in it.
go to kochin it's boss.good luck.

I do agree with the first answer...Ayurveda if to be studied has to be done from kerala..The second link of kerala..ok KAL seems like a good option to me.... It shud cover wat u r looking for..
However I wud like to mention that the best Ayurveda in Kerala in from the Kottakkal group.... They are the masters of it and their formulas are the best in this industry ... This is the link to their college
