Alosha Lynov is a Bio-Architect who combines the principles of Earthships, the vision of Antoni Gaudí, and the elegance of Sacred Geometry to create autonomous Living BioShelter Organisms—self-heating, self-cooling, and self-sustaining structures. He founded Bio-Veda Academy of Bio-Architecture for the purpose of educating and empowering people to design and build their own eco-homes. To date, the academy has provided hands-on video courses in ecological construction and water self-sufficiency to more than 3,500 students worldwide. With over 25 years of experience, Alosha has dedicated his career to integrating biomimicry, permaculture, and sustainable technologies into architecture. His unique approach emphasizes biomimetic forms and systems that are structurally stronger, more cost-effective, and more harmonious with natural landscapes than conventional building methods. Alosha’s path began in the late 1990s, initially working with spandex sculptures for event design. In 2007, he trained in Mexico at a flying concrete workshop, where he mastered the creation of Gaudí-inspired ferrocement shells. He later applied this knowledge to his own land, building a 700 sq. ft. seashell-inspired structure and developing a fully self-sufficient ecosystem. His work has taken him across five continents, where he has studied with global experts and taught workshops in BioTecture, permaculture, and water self-sufficiency. Today, his focus remains on developing and teaching innovative building techniques that enable individuals and communities to live sustainably and resiliently.
a bit too superficial and some repetitions.
I have noticed some discrepancies in the first couple chapters, mainly the one that bothered me so deeply was the scientific method isn’t clean in determining what conclusions can be drawn from the psychology of color theory studies. Another thing that would really kick it up a notch is having a separate list of printable pdf charts for all the individual lists (properties of trees, edible plants, indoor sot spot plants, etc.) would be an incredibly helpful study tool since memorizing those individually in unlikely and having the printed reference guide would be helpful ongoingly, even after certification has been granted. It wouldn’t be that difficult to design printable posters for your students and it would cost you a lot of money whereas is would be a great service and boon for us, definitely earning that last star.
The studies and subjects are very interesting
Good
A lot of information with out much practical guidance of how to apply it. Case studies would be helpful and exercises to apply some of the information.
Very interesting material. I enjoyed the course, although more examples of plants and trees from other parts of the world are needed. It would be very helpful that the certificate includes the approximate number of hours or credits.
very difficult to navigate...vannot get to the end of the page on each module. have to use my phone to complete
There is a great deal of information about the history and science behind Sylvotherapy, which is interesting but not essential for me but I am only half way through and I have learned a lot about Sylvotherapy sessions and so looking forward to learning more.
This course was very informative and thorough. It may be beneficial to add video here and there to keep attention. I think some pronunciations were incorrect in the audio, but it did not take away from the information.
There is quite a bit of good useful information so far and I am learning valuable tips and tricks. Being a visual learner, it would nice to have more photos or even short videos showing examples of the text. The background information/history is interesting, yet I don't believe that it is an asset that should be part of the quizzes.
Fine ty
Good!
this course is wonderful
I really like learning about the beneficial qualities of many trees, plants, herbs and essential oils. I'd like to see an outline of what a typical class might look like.
I like the way the course is set up with the module reading and the audio file along side. However, it would be helpful to be able to pick up the audio midway if the whole module is not studied in one session. This is not a big issue, just a useful feature.
Overall it's a great course! My favorite is learning about negative ions so far. I was a uncomfortable with the chakra and meridian practice, and the concentrated time spent on these. I think someone who is a long term practitioner of this work is the best person to teach. It's also hard to grasp and believe via this online asyncronous format.
