Meet Your Instructor: Corinna Maharani Corinna Maharani is a certified Ayurvedic practitioner and educator with more than three decades of experience in Ayurvedic Sacred Bodywork™, Marma Therapy, and PanchaKarma. Her legal name, Maharani — meaning “Great Queen” — reflects her devotion to the Divine Feminine and her commitment to treating others with noble respect and reverence. She graduated in 1989 from one of the first Ayurveda programs offered at Maharishi International University in Iowa. There, she met her lifelong teacher, Vaidya R.K. Mishra, widely regarded as one of the most brilliant minds in modern Ayurvedic history.

In this webinar series, she brings that authentic lineage knowledge to you in a practical, clinically relevant format. What Is Abhyanga?
