Begin With Intention. Build What Lasts.
Turning a retreat center into a real Āyurvedic destination is a full transformation — get it wrong, and it shows. We help you do it right the first time: real systems, real staff training, real authenticity, real retreat & program development.
Consultation
For retreat centers, boutique accommodations, hotels, and resorts ready to become a real Āyurvedic destination — not add a spa menu item and call it done.
We start with a full assessment of what you have, and build the roadmap to get you to what you're actually trying to become.
Program & Staff Development
A real Āyurvedic destination needs a real program — treatments, protocols, and offerings built on the tradition itself — and a team trained to deliver it consistently.
We build the retreat program and curriculum and train your therapists, teachers, and front-of-house together, so the whole property works from one real standard.
Vastu — Vedic Architecture
Before you build, or before you renovate what you already have — Vastu guidance on layout, orientation, and flow, rooted in the same tradition as everything else we teach.
A retreat or center that's aligned in its bones supports the practice happening inside it. We help you get that right from the ground up, not bolted on afterward.
The people you call before you spend the money.
Most consultants have done this once, for themselves. We've built it again and again — schools, retreat centers, full destination transformations, across three countries and twenty-plus years — which means you're not hiring one person's guess. You're hiring a network: practitioners, teachers, and staff trainers who already work together, and know what a real Āyurvedic destination actually requires.
And once your center is running, we don't disappear. You get real people to call, not a folder of documents you're left to figure out alone.
Questions
What does Yoga Veda Consulting do?
Yoga Veda Consulting helps retreat centers become world-class Āyurvedic destinations — through consultation, program and curriculum design, staff training, and Vastu (Vedic architecture) consulting.
Who is Yoga Veda Consulting for?
Yoga Veda Consulting works with retreat centers, boutique hotels, and resorts that want to transform into real Āyurvedic destinations — not with individual retreat facilitators planning a single retreat.
Does Yoga Veda Consulting work online or in person?
Yoga Veda Consulting works online worldwide, with in-person consulting available by arrangement.
Who founded Yoga Veda Consulting?
Yoga Veda Consulting was founded by Jacky Rae and Andy Betancourt, the co-founders of Yoga Veda Institute, drawing on more than twenty years running retreat centers and yoga schools in Mexico and Thailand.
Does Yoga Veda Consulting offer Vastu or Vedic architecture consulting?
Yes. Yoga Veda Consulting offers Vastu guidance on layout, orientation, and flow for new builds and renovations, so a retreat center's physical space supports the practice happening inside it.
Why hire Yoga Veda Consulting instead of an independent consultant?
Yoga Veda Consulting is a network, not one person's opinion — practitioners, teachers, and facilitators who already work together, built from twenty-plus years running schools and retreat centers across three countries. Support continues after the transformation is complete.
