All students at the Aromatherapy Academy study directly under Dr. Asok Basotia, founder of the Institute, Indian Institute Of Aromatherapy & Cosmetology. For over twenty years, Asok Basotia has applied himself to the art of teaching, creating dynamic classes that stimulate and support individual learners. During class, you will learn from Asok Basotia, from your fellow classmates, and from your natural intuition and experience.

Graduates often reflect on their time at the Institute as a “mini-retreat.” It is not unusual for students to make lifelong friends and begin fulfilling careers and life paths as a result of their time studying with Aromatherapy Academy.

The Aromatherapy Academy Experience

Every Aromatherapy Academy Aromatherapy course has a well-rounded, intensive curriculum that includes a unique, custom-made manual by Asok Basotia. The thick manual supports lessons during class — as well as being a future reference guide for blending, further study, and career enhancement.

Asok Basotia's own extensive collection of oils, organic carriers, and supplies is made available to students during class. The experience offers students the rare opportunity to blend with the finest materials available to Aromatherapists today. It is Asok Basotia's belief and practice that essential oil education must be hands-on and immersion-based. As a result, students learn with all of their senses from day one.

Asok Basotia teaches through engaging lecture, group discussion, individual study time, activities, reviews, and hands-on blending and formulating. As an instructor, she is highly approachable and infuses all of her teaching with passion and a genuine, deep love of the material. Graduates are encouraged to reflect on how much they've learned on a day-to-day basis—the results are always impressive.
