Julie Reynolds and Jen Wade welcome you to the page for The Acupuncture Academy. This is the informal face of The Academy, which provides professional acupuncture training, fully accredited by the BAAB, for those wishing to join the ranks of five element focused practitioners working in the UK. The difference is our blended learning model - reducing attendance time, and freeing up all that class time to focus on practical, clinical and diagnostic skills.

Acupuncture Awareness Week 2025

This week, we’re celebrating this wonderful medicine. As part of the celebrations, let’s recognise those who dedicate their time, passion, and expertise to training the next generation of acupuncturists.

We are so proud to say that our amazing Principals, Julie Reynolds and Jen Wade, were both awarded Fellowships of the British Acupuncture Council (BAcC) at last year’s conference in July 2024.

They started The Acupuncture Academy from their kitchen table, and today it stands as a fully accredited, degree-level course. Julie and Jen have built something truly special, a college grounded in integrity, compassion, and clinical excellence.

As a college, we thank you both for your dedication and lifelong service to the acupuncture profession. Your TAA family couldn’t be prouder! ❤️

Please share your messages of gratitude below.

Happy Monday & Happy Acupuncture Awareness Week 2025!

This year, let’s celebrate the gold-standard training of British Acupuncture Council (BAcC) members and the power of traditional acupuncture as a personalised, preventative, lifestyle medicine, one that connects mind and body and embraces the whole system of health.

At The Acupuncture Academy, we’re proud to say that all our graduates are eligible to join the BAcC, as we are a fully accredited college delivering the highest standard of professional training.

Here’s to a week of awareness, connection, and celebration of this fantastic healthcare system.

Last night we had the absolute pleasure of celebrating our wonderful M2022 and S2022 cohorts at their graduation ceremony, a truly fabulous evening enjoyed by all!

A heartfelt thank you to our inspiring guest speaker, Susan Woodhead, for sharing her wisdom, passion, and words that resonated deeply with us all.

We are incredibly proud of each and every one of you who graduated, and to those who couldn’t be with us, we send our warmest congratulations and very best wishes for your journey ahead.

As thousands of young people take their next step today, we’re reminded…
Most of us at TAA had no clue what our true path was at 18.

Some of us didn’t get the results we hoped for.
Some of us changed careers in our 30s, 40s… even 70s.
Our current students range from 18 to 74 years old, proof that it’s never too late to start something new.

And now? We’re part of a profession that changes lives every single day.
Acupuncture:
• Ancient roots
• Backed by modern science
• Incredible skills you can use to make a real difference

📅 Next intake: mid September – last few places available
🌱 Or join our Spring 2026 cohort

Your future doesn’t have to start at 18.
Make this your moment.
Join the TAA family and take your place in modern healthcare.

Congratulations to S2022! 🎉

Today marks the end of a significant chapter, three years of dedication, growth, and hard work at The Acupuncture Academy. You are officially the 22nd group to complete the course, and we couldn’t be prouder.

Before they departed, we asked some of the students what they’d loved most about their time with us, or what they’d miss. Their answers were honest, touching, and a reminder of what makes this course so special.

To S2022: Welcome to a truly rewarding profession. You’re all brilliant, and you’ll be missed around the college more than you know.

Reel to follow so save your words of congrats, but big love to S2022, our 22nd group to finish the course today!! Well done guys ❤️
