The Team

Pat is a male grooming expert who, for many years, has taught barbers, hairdressers and beauty therapists, the art of cut-throat razor shaving. Pat is also a remedial/deep tissue masseur with over 30 years experience.
We have taken to the Spanish lifestyle and enjoy nothing more than exploring the many restaurants and tapas bars on offer. Like a typical Spaniard, as soon as we've eaten one meal, we're thinking of our next!
Now we have found the perfect property and location, we have made our training academy head office in Spain and will be offering all of our courses at Casa Torreta Blanca as well as offering onsite training to English speaking Spanish therapists.
We will also be offering treatments for both guests and locals.
Location
The retreat is 10 minutes from Albox which has all the amenities of a Spanish market town.
Almeria is one of Spain's sunniest regions and one of the least visited.
Partaloa stands out due to its surroundings of mountains and rocky landscapes in the Almonzora Valley.
