Paris-based school L’Ecole Internationale du spa and Pure Altitude have set up a partnership to develop a new training course.

Created by Sandra Kennou, founder of Ecole International du Spa, and Marie Sibuet, CEO of the brand Maisons et Hôtels Sibuet, the programme offers attendees practical training, a recognised qualification, and the ability to join one of ten Maisons et Hôtels Sibuet Pure Altitude Spas.

The six-week , 250-hour course will start on 25 October, 2018. After six weeks, attendees will join the Pure Altitude team to become a practitioner at one of the spas in Megève, Avoriaz, Flaine or Val Thorens, France for the 2018/2019 winter season.

Maisons and Hôtels Sibuet label is a 30-year-old family business with a focus on wellbeing and the art of living in the mountains, including the Pure Altitude mountain spa concept.

Pure Altitude offers skincare lines, skincare protocols and signature spa treatments.

Its skincare uses ingredients from more than 70 mountain plants and minerals, including the anti-ageing properties of Edelweiss.
