Holistica's motto and ethos is at the heart of all services: "Every human being has a responsibility to care, and the foundation of being a good carer is to know what being cared for feels like."

Holistica Training Centre Workshops

Learners at Holistica Training Centre have an interest in movement related activity, and are inclined to see the body as a powerful machine.


All workshops at Holistica Training Centre include free refreshments, a handy gift, and contagious passion, knowledge, and care.


Bring back your equilibrium by easily understanding the energy matrix of the human body through posture, energy fields, chakras, meridians, organs, and metabolism.


When each workshop and project is completed, you will feel confident to share your knowledge with others.  Jessica's personable and friendly teaching guides you with explanations of the how's and why's in a way that makes sense!

Jessica Blackbond
Trainer , Assessor, Head of Centre.

Inspired by Western and Eastern techniques, Jessica's strong massages include a rich mix of Swedish, Lomi Lomi, Chinese reflexology, and Indian Head.  A fully relaxing massage that gets deep into muscles, works out tension, and helps eliminate toxins and stress to give a feeling of surreal contentment and peace.

Jessica worked as a professional contemporary dancer for stage and television until stage fright ceased her career and led her to open a holistic therapy dance and wellness studio.  Holistica Health, Fitness and Dance was originally set up in 2006 as a dance and health facility in Leeds, West Yorkshire.

With a desire to travel the world while developing anatomy, physiology, philosophy, and body healing skills Holistica ceased business in 2011.  Jessica was very fortunate to travel and study overseas - countries including Africa, America, India, and Australia, and to work overseas - countries including China, French Polynesia, and Croatia. 

While taking a sabbatical to experience other cultures and learn self care techniques Jessica wrote a number one Amazon bestselling book ‘The Way You Move Says It All’, and created the blueprint to Holistica Training Centre with a core purpose to promote positive human value in order to have happier individuals, families, and communities. 

Jessica also works as a supply primary school teacher, and is a proud dog mum to Ralph.
