⚠️ Important Notice: Protecting Your Data & Integrity of Silva Method Services over Disputed Activities

Published by Silva Method (GB) Ltd – April 2025

Silva Method (GB) Ltd wishes to inform our students, graduates, and the community of ongoing concerns related to the promotion of Silva Method-branded services via a new website and individuals no longer affiliated with us.

❌ Background: Termination of Mr. Aktar Chowdhury

On 4th December 2024, Mr. Aktar Chowdhury’s role as a certified Silva Method instructor was officially terminated by Silva Method (GB) Ltd due to multiple contractual breaches, including:

Unauthorised sharing of confidential internal documents.
Engaging in efforts to build a competing Silva-branded business during his time with us.
Violating key clauses around confidentiality, exclusivity, and non-compete obligations.

As part of his termination, Mr. Chowdhury was legally reminded of his obligations — including a non-compete clause and restrictions on using any Silva Method intellectual property, student data, or operational material obtained during his tenure.

Importantly, Silva International was made aware of Mr. Chowdhury’s misconduct at the time — and he was subsequently removed from their official instructor directory, following communication from then-director Gabriel Ostend, who personally raised concerns about Mr. Chowdhury’s conduct.

⚠️ silvamethoduk.com — A Business Under Dispute

We have since observed that Mr. Chowdhury is now operating as Director of a new website — silvamethoduk.com — which presents itself as a provider of Silva Method courses in the UK.

The branding and structure of this site closely mirror that of Silva Method (GB) Ltd, raising significant concerns regarding the unauthorised use of materials, format, and possibly student data. The legitimacy and oversight of this operation are currently being formally challenged by our company, and the matter is now part of an active legal dispute.
