‘I had a great time, it was exactly what I needed to get my confidence to the point where I can start teaching classes. Amazing what you can do in three days! Oh my god, it’s happening!! I honestly can’t thank you enough. I’ve got my mojo back.’

‘Just wanted to quickly thank you for last week’s course – I think we all had a great time and surprised ourselves with what we were able to learn and achieve in such a short time. You’re a gifted teacher, and the team and set-up you have there do you huge credit.

The content of the course was absolutely spot-on. Enough of the theory to encourage anyone who might want to research further (and some great tips on where to look), but not too much that it might put-off more practically-focused students. The hands-on work was invaluable, and the main reason I signed-up. Being given the chance to teach a class, with the reassurance of your oversight, was a great confidence booster and there was so much to learn.’

Words from Ross Andrews (now Rebeldogco)

One of the hardest things I found was having nowhere to turn in those early days when I needed support and guidance. That won’t happen to you. We are just a phone call away, anytime.

One life, one chance is all you get.
