About the Founder of Daoyin Tao

Anna-Louise Haigh

Following several years building a home-visiting practice after qualifying in 1988, Anna-Louise Haigh established Lavender Court in Harrogate, North Yorkshire in 1995 due to the demand evident by recommendation for her work. Since then she created and was Principal of the Harrogate School of Aromatherapy (1995-2000) and culminated her long career with the British School of Reflexology spanning from 1990-2003 as Principal of its Northern operations.

Anna-Louise Haigh now combines treatments and training while continuing her own professional and personal development. A regular guest speaker for various groups, national and international conferences and medical seminars, she considers herself amongst the fortunate who truly enjoy every moment of their daily encounters. Professionalism, experience and a down to earth yet holistic approach have become her hallmarks.

Julie Crossman - Tutor

Julie brings to the teaching of Daoyin Tao® a great enthusiasm and passion, not only for the therapy, but also for the progress of her students. As one of the first students and graduates, Julie was 'hand-picked' by Anna-Louise for her professional and personal qualities which make her ideally suited to help carry Daoyin Tao® forward.

An experienced therapist and teacher, Julie offers insightful teaching that responds to the group needs and is well received. Julie spent over two years being personally trained by Anna-Louise and has dedicated untold hours to helping make Daoyin Tao® the success it is today.

Julie is a highly trusted and integral member of the Daoyin Tao® team and at present is the only recognised teacher along with Anna-Louise.
