Welcome to
The National School of Aesthetics
Celebrating 25 Years of Beauty Therapy, Nail Technology and Spa Therapies Training
Beauty therapy courses, nail technology courses and spa therapy courses: train through the National School of Aesthetics, one of New Zealand's leading beauty schools and the South Island's obvious choice, for a career in these exciting industries!
Welcome. Haere mai. Testimonials about us and graduate profiles attest to our strong training. We offer entry-level beauty therapy courses, like beauty therapy, nail technology, facial therapy, body therapy and electrology, and professional development beauty therapy courses, like spa therapies, spa reflexology, Indian head massage, spa aromatherapy, stone massage and lymphatic drainage massage, through The National Spa Academy.
In Christchurch since 1985, we remain the South Island's oldest beauty therapy school, offering beauty therapy courses, nail technology courses and spa therapies courses. Owners Noel Turner and Don Kendall, both internationally-qualified beauty therapists, are actively involved here. Registered with ITEC, CIBTAC and CIDESCO, we offer the international qualifications industry expects. We also are NZQA-Registered and on a three-year audit cycle: the first PTE of its type (and only 1 of 3) on this highest audit cycle.
2011 Info Is Here

Our New Site
Welcome to the new NaSA Web site. We're constantly trying to make our Web site and information easier to read.
As always, if you have any suggestions, feel free to contact our offices during office hours.
Happy 25th Birthday, NaSA
On 3 July 2010, the NaSA celebrated its 25th birthday. We remain the longest running beauty therapy provider in the South Island, and the second longest-running in New Zealand.
Congrats to Noel and Don on achieving this milestone, and a big thanks to all the clients, models, NaSA team, and, most of all, to the students and graduates for making us the success we are!
