Massage comes in a variety of different forms, for example aromatherapy or sports.  It can be either relaxing or invigorating and our students find that studying is an excellent way to learn more about the various techniques, with our training ranging from Indian Head to Pregnancy and Baby Massage.

Karen Richards chose to study Hot Stone Therapy. She said that she felt that it followed on as a natural progression from studying several other therapies.  She had previously spent time studying Relaxation and Indian Head Massage and Reflexology courses, and found the lessons easy to follow and the practical training informative and very useful.  She said that she felt that there is no pressure to complete by a certain time, so it had fitted in very well with her lifestyle.  It would also help her to become a successful therapist and make her feel good about herself.  She is now successfully practising Hot Stone Therapy in a therapy centre.  She has since gone onto study Aromatherapy, and would like to learn about Shiatsu in the future.

Being a working mother meant that studying Advanced Aromatherapy has fitted in very well with Helen Brain’s life.  She chose to study with BSY because of the convenience as it allowed her to study at home at her own pace and said that she chose Advanced Aromatherapy to complement her BSY Pilates and Hatha Yoga Teacher qualifications and hopes to start teaching both Pilates and Yoga.  Her advice to her fellow students would be to choose their courses wisely, make the most of the resources available, not to overload themselves with work and to try to do what they enjoy!  She was particularly happy with the support provided and the speed at which the marked assignments are returned to her.

A recommendation by a family member led to Danny Norton enrolling on one of BSY’s Massage courses.  He already had a strong interest in the subject and thought that it would be ideal to study at home in his own time.  He said that he was happy with all aspects of his studying and remarked how convenient it was to send off his assignments and get a very quick reply, and that it was the perfect home learning programme.  In the future he would also consider learning more about Shiatsu and Reflexology.

Are you interested in fitness courses?  If so, you may be interested in learning with BSY.  You can study your chosen subject when and where you wish – giving you freedom and flexibility.  In addition, tutors are on hand to offer you support and encouragement throughout.  Many of our students have shared their feedback with us.  This can be a useful way for them to share their experiences with those who are thinking of studying with us too.

Penelope Brown took our gym instructor training.  She decided to take this one as ‘I am interested in learning about how the body works, the results and possible injuries’.  Before studying this subject, Penelope had enrolled on a BSY Yoga course.  Penelope studies with BSY because ‘I find the courses flexible with no time restraints.  I also find the courses good value for money.’  She hopes that her gym instructor learning will help her in the future to ‘gain a deeper level of understanding and knowledge of how the body performs’.  Penelope ‘would always advocate home study as it’s flexible around a busy schedule’.  She also agrees that she would ‘recommend BSY to a friend’ and that it is ‘excellent value for money’.

Sasha Von Rappard enrolled on the personal fitness trainer subjects.  Sasha feels that it is ‘excellent’.  He continues by explaining that ‘I am a father of two and need to work full time to provide for my family – and thanks to BSY, I can do the course in my own time’.  Sasha says that he has been most happy ‘with the customer service most of all.  Very helpful.’  Sasha feels that it is excellent value for money and he would recommend BSY training to a friend.

As well as this topic, we offer many other subjects of study – over 300 – that can be learnt.  One such topic is Advanced Crystal Healing.  This was a subject enrolled on by Maria Nickisson.  She feels that ‘they are excellent value and a no pressure approach.  You can complete the course in your own time and at your own speed.’  Maria has already completed the Crystal Healing subject so the advanced one was the next step.  Maria explains that she has been most happy with ‘the fact that my marked work is generally returned in one week with positive comments’.  Please visit our Advanced Crystal Healing web page for more details.

Before we give you some student feedback on our beauty courses, we thought you may like to read the comments of Jenny McKinlay.  She enrolled on the Professional Spiritual Healing Course – Part 1 course as ‘I am very interested in spiritual healing and wish to pursue into this as my chosen career’.  Jenny explains ‘I chose to study through BSY because I was looking for a distance learning course that would be beneficial to me.  BSY gives excellent value for money and well-explained courses that are easy to understand.’  Thinking about her current subject, Jenny has been most happy with ‘the well explained course work, easy to understand and very well laid out; answer papers are easy to follow; the quick delivery of course work once posted; the great customer service.’  Jenny said that the course may help her in the future to ‘progress as a person and find a career in my subject chosen.  This course has taught me very important information and to always think positively and grow as a person.’  If you are thinking of studying with BSY, Jenny would say ‘to go straight ahead with studying for BSY as the courses offer a vast amount of knowledge and easy to understand with friendly staff.  If you want to study for a career through distance learning, BSY is perfect…I have already got family and friends studying with BSY as I enjoyed it and recommended others.’

Chanelle Blakey chose to study the beauty specialist course from BSY.  She decided to take this subject because she wants ‘to advance on previous knowledge gained through beauty courses’.  Chanelle explained that she has been most happy ‘with the knowledge I’ve gained’ from her studies.  She feels that the beauty course may help her in the future to ‘open my own salon’.  Chanelle agrees that she ‘would recommend BSY to a friend’ and that ‘studying with BSY is convenient’.
