Ross Brittleton
elementals was formed by Ross in 2002. He has worked in the fields of health, education, training and the arts. He is a qualified coach, physical therapist, psychotherapist, trainer, educator and a trained actor. His innovative, creative and imaginative methods reflect over 35 years experience gained from working in a wide variety of work environments and learning the most up to date methods available.
In 2009 Ross published the first edition of his book ‘The Art of Living’ and published the second edition in 2016. The book summarises his approach to self-development based on 40 years of research, experience and practice. It allows the reader to develop their self-awareness, communication skills and to make the necessary changes in their life so they can live their lives more effectively both personally and professionally.
Through his work and experience he places the ability to communicate and manage our lives effectively as the cornerstone of training in both personal and professional settings. By allowing people to “do” he believes they learn far more effectively. Over the years he has developed ways of working that allow people to develop their communication, organisational, planning and personal development skills.
He is committed to people, not to technology or paper. He works with people to help them to develop all the skills they will need to live and work more effectively in an ever-changing world.

Testimonials
Client comments on Therapies
“Ross’s treatments have been invaluable in my continued success in my sport as they are an important part of my preparations for training and competition.”
Helen Worsey – No.1 GB Junior Hurdler
“I have been receiving regular fortnightly Thai Massage for several months now. It is one continuous flowing movement during which my body and joints are taken, without strain, through their range of movement, a range which continues to increase. The whole process gives a feeling of complete relaxation and peace.”
Jeff Birch – Remedial Masseur
“I see Ross once a fortnight because I enjoy his particular form of deep-tissue massage. It is a very pleasurable experience and I find it deeply relaxing on both a physical and mental level.”
Kerrigan Rudon – Teacher
“I engage in an average of five gym sessions a week. My ability to maintain this kind of fitness regime at the ripe old age of 60 can, in large measure, be attributed to the treatment and advice I have received from Ross. For this I owe him a debt of gratitude.”
Patrick Murphy – Co-Director of the CRSS, University of Leicester

Chris Hall MD – Hallmark

Calum Cameron – Chief Exec – Dynamic Wealth Financial Management
“The combination of Ross Brittleton’s sensitive approach as a person and his experience makes his work really special. I can thoroughly recommend him for his work and for anyone seeking to address how they function as a human being.”
Andrew Wade – Head of Voice Royal Shakespeare Company
“I wanted to let you know that your coaching inspired me not only on the day of the session, but has continued to do so as I often look at the notes I jotted down during our call. Your comments still ground me (if I’ve got a limiting belief issue) and continue to motivate me to be the best I can be and have inspired me to want to offer the best I possibly can.”
Stephanie Thomas – Administrator
“My coaching session really helped to put things in perspective and enabled me to plan my course of action. Your challenges to my ideas were really appropriate and I am now even more assured that this is an area of work that I will be exploring in the future.”
Anita Pickerden – University Lecturer
“I liked your style and was encouraged by your objectivity. I certainly feel comfortable being coached by you. That said, I am aware that there are areas which we differ and possible have fairly strong but opposing points of views. I feel that is healthy and can open up debate and I look forward to finding out more on that.”
Stephen Hunt – Sales Executive
“I just wanted to say how helpful I have found our sessions …. I think the quality I find most helpful is that the talking is imaginative and mythological. This is very helpful to me since I am an artist. Your comments about the relationship of the power in art … to the power in day to day life are pertinent”.
Caroline Mackenzie – Artist
