Chris Phillips – Principal/Director/Tutor
I have developed my professional and business skills in my own clinic which I established in 2000, after training in Traditional Holistic Massage and Sports and Remedial Massage (ITEC) . I am a member of Embody and CTHA. In 2002 I was introduced to the Hydrotherm system which I have found invaluable as a way of delivering a unique massage experience to my clients. In 2006 I completed my Certificate in Further Education Teaching (CFET1) and I have been teaching Sports and Remedial Massage BTEC level 4, The Hydrotherm Massage System and a series of Advanced Massage Workshops. I have a background of working with young troubled people and their families in a therapeutic setting, both as key worker and as a manager and supervising and training staff. I use all these skills in management and leadership of the Academy, aiming to deliver high standards in our everyday tasks and in our interactions with others, be that our students or my clients.
Claire Rumney – Operations Manager
I originally qualified with an ITEC Diploma in Holistic Massage here at The Cotswold Academy in June 2008. Whilst working toward my ITEC Diploma I studied towards my BTEC Level 4 Diploma in Sports and Remedial Massage completing this in July 2008. On completion of these two courses I established my own clinic in Shipston on Stour, Warwickshire. I have recently relocated to Wiltshire and have become involved as the Operations Manager here at the Academy. I bring enthusiasm and a knowledge of the Health, Beauty and Teaching industry to the Academy and have a passion for developing businesses and supporting students.
