Real photos from our practical days in Estover, Plymouth. Small, friendly groups, lots of hands-on practice, and usually a fair bit of laughing.

It has been the best learning experience I have ever had, the support the absolute best too. I have gained so much confidence throughout.

She creates a welcoming inclusive learning environment. We have engaging, fun discussions in lessons, and she makes it clear that there are no stupid questions.

Her ‘hands on approach’ to training makes it so easy to learn and her willingness to always help and support you (even after the course) is something I have valued very much.

Karen is a natural teacher, she is down-to-earth, approachable, and very supportive. Clean, relaxed, and well-equipped space to learn. A wonderful environment to learn new skills in, I can't recommend enough.

Karen is amazing and extremely knowledgeable. Her treatment room is very relaxing and welcoming for clients and students. I thoroughly enjoyed doing my dermaplaning course with Karen- she is absolutely great! Highly recommend 🤩
I completed a dermaplaning course with Karen and was not disappointed! She is very approachable and great fun- her knowledge is fantastic and she has always been there to give post support if I had any questions after the course. The learning space was calming and welcoming and I felt very confident and at ease during and throughout the course. Thank you Karen
3 years ago i completed an Indian head training course. This opened my eyes to holistic therapy, Karen supported me throughout further training. Each course is suitable for all learning needs, Karen was always available to help and answer any questions. 7 courses later, I’m now self employed as a mobile holistic therapist.
If your looking to up skill or learn something new, Plymouth Holistic Training is the place to go. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I highly recommend Plymouth Holistic Training. I have done various courses with them including Reflexology and aromatherapy massage. These great courses have allowed me to build my business and Karen is really informative and helpful 👍
I'm studying the Complementary Therapies level 3 with Plymouth Holistic Training . I'm really grateful to have have found Karen and this course. She creates a welcoming inclusive learning environment. We have engaging, fun discussions in lessons, and she makes it clear that there are no stupid questions. Karen really cares, and teaches with professionalism, and humour.
The course material is well set out, accessible, and comprehensive.
Exams and assessments are as unstressful as possible.
Five stars from me, and a great big thank you!

I have attended two courses at Plymouth Holistic Training and have thoroughly enjoyed both of them. Karen Trim teaches in a way which empowers and gives confidence. I am mature to return to the classroom so was a bit nervous – but now, I plan to book more courses and have set up my own small biz 🥰
I have just finished a VCTC aromatherapy course and have loved every second! The course is given in a fabulous 'real' learning experience with people coming in to practice on. It has been the best learning experience I have ever had, the support the absolute best too. I have gained so much confidence throughout. I've met students from other courses that I will stay in touch with, too. I've enjoyed the whole experience so much that I am going on to level 4 in complementary therapies.
I can not recommend this course highly enough.
They are always available to answer any questions, and I had amazing help when I was struggling to revise my anatomy, physiology, and pathology. I learnt new techniques that gave me a real belief in myself.
I have changed as a person through their training. This is a really special place to be a part of!

I have attended a few courses now with Plymouth Holistic Training, and each time Karen has delivered training in such an inspiring way that she makes you feel at ease from the moment you enter the room.
She is extremely knowledgable, friendly and down to earth.
Her 'hands on approach' to training makes it so easy to learn and her willingness to always help and support you (even after the course) is something I have valued very much.
Karen is clearly a natural when it comes to teaching and makes the lessons enjoyable and informative but at the same time in a relaxed environment where you feel totally at ease asking as many questions as necessary without feeling awkward.
Definitely recommend Karen for all holistic courses.

This was the first time I have had the pleasure of studying at Plymouth Holistic Training, and it was a joy. Karen was so supportive and always at the end of the phone for any questions. I’ll be back for sure, watch this space ! 👌🏼
Thanks again Karen! X

I attended an introduction to Aromatherapy course. I can safely say we all enjoyed the session, mentored by the wonderful Karen Trim; and all came away with bespoke products, made by our own fair hands. Am looking forward to another course
