The Acupuncture Academy was the brainchild two of people, the current Principals,  Julie Reynolds and Jen Wade.  Their ideas came to be a reality following the sad closure of the original five element college, the College of Traditional Acupuncture (based in Leamington Spa and latterly in Hatton) at which they both taught.  Loving this system of medicine as they do, it was inconceivable that future generations of students would not have access to this life changing material, taught as it is a such a high level.

​

Opening in 2012, and achieving full accreditation by the British Acupuncture Accreditation Board in 2014, the course utilised pioneering teaching methods and an all new approach to the study of acupuncture theory, research and biomedicine, combining high quality remote tuition, alongside college based practical skills sessions.  Working with a rock solid team now for 12 years, the college has graduated 20 cohorts of students now, and have an impressive 96% student satisfaction rating (which doesn't mean 4% weren't happy, but that on average, everyone was 96% happy!)

​

TAA is a family, and we thrive because of hard work, and also because of the relentless positivity of the Principals, the tutors, the supervisors, and all of the staff, as well as a core ethos of kindness, support and connection.  

​

We work with humour, with diligence, and with the happiness and welfare of the students, graduates and their future patients at the heart of every single decision made.  So if you are thinking of training to become an acupuncturist, we are really confident that you will love it here, and will thrive with our support both while studying, and beyond into practice.
