I started at the Academy at the age of forty years to learn healing skills so I could help my children, family and friends. The courses have been a catalyst for the changes I have wanted to make in my life for many years, I’ve learnt how to access my own potential while learning to help and heal others to be able to do the same. All this as I work towards a government accredited qualification.

Staff are invariably willing to help students make their studies work for them in their current life situations. Western and Eastern approaches to health are brought together in a unique and utterly complementary way.
