Jury & Participants
Introducing the Jury of the Aufguss UK Championships
At the heart of the Aufguss UK Championships lies a team of highly skilled and passionate professionals—the Jury. This distinguished panel brings together seasoned Aufguss masters, spa industry experts, and experienced judges from around the globe, united by their deep appreciation for the art of Aufguss.
The Jury’s primary role is to evaluate performances with precision and fairness, ensuring the highest standards of creativity, technique, and authenticity are upheld. Their meticulous assessment considers every detail, from the choreography and scent compositions to the execution of heat rituals and overall impact on the audience.
More than evaluators, the Jury also serves as ambassadors for the Aufguss tradition, fostering innovation while honouring its rich cultural roots. Their guidance and feedback not only celebrate excellence but also inspire participants to refine their craft and elevate the guest experience in spas worldwide.
We are proud to present this exceptional panel, whose expertise and dedication are instrumental in shaping the Aufguss UK Championships into a showcase of artistry, wellness, and community.
