FAQ

Why should I choose The Body Temple Academy?

Our training courses have been carefully and competently crafted by Sughra herself. Sughra has a 25 year background in the health, beauty and wellness field working as a therapist, a trainer and a consultant both in the UK and internationally. She has made a commitment to equip you with the fundamental skills needed to work as a professional therapist and she utilises everything she has learnt over the years and shares it with you. This includes therapy skills, business acumen, customer care and mentorship.

Where does training take place?

Sughra runs the training at her home in Derby. It’s a cosy place and is comfortable for 4 students. You can see more information about the venue here.

Can I practise professionally when I complete my course?

You can gain insurance and practise professionally following each of our courses. We recommend Balens or Westminster Insurance but if you wish to stay with your current provider, please check with them before signing up for any of our courses. All of our courses are accredited by The Complimentary Medical Association.

Do the courses provide CPD points?

Each course is allocated a set amount of CPD points, and you will find this on the course information page.

What time does training start and finish?

Training generally starts by 10am and finishes by 5.30pm at the latest.

What do I need to bring with me?

We normally ask you to bring writing materials and anything to cater for special dietary requirements.

Do I need to bring food?

We will provide your main lunch each day. However, we always appreciate any snacks, fruit or cake that you would like to share with the group. Our lunch is always vegetarian, simple, nutritious and tasty.

What should I wear?

Be comfortable. Wear something that’s easy to take off and put back on as you’ll be practising on one another. Also, something that you don’t mind getting a little oil on. If you prefer, you can bring your training clothes with you and change into them.

ALWAYS bring some slippers or warm socks as we don’t wear shoes in the house 😊

I’m a little anxious about attending training

It’s normal to feel a little anxious about going to a new place and meeting new people. We understand. For most courses, we hold a zoom session beforehand so you’ll have the chance to say hello to everyone. We are just an email or phone call away if you have any other worries

What happens if I’ve booked, and I can’t make it?

Let us know as soon as you can. Have a read of the terms and conditions here

How is the time divided between theory and practical?

Most of the in-person days focus on practical. If there is a lot of theory to cover, we do this via zoom prior to the course. In person, we like to make the most of the opportunity for you to be hands-on

Is there any on-going support once I’ve completed the course?

You can reach out via email anytime and we also have a facebook group where you can post questions.

When will I receive my certificate?

If case studies are required, you will receive your certificate within a month of submitting them. Where no case studies are required, you will receive your certificate at the end of the course, as long as you have met all the requirements

Do you offer in-house training at our salon/spa?

We can come to you as long as you have at least 4 staff who need training. You can email us here with more details about what you had in mind.
