What our clients say...
"Very impressed with the high standard as usual through the whole course. Equipment was of a very high standard, of a higher standard than I would have bought. I now feel I have the tools to work towards assessment." "Fantastic course, developed my skills. I didn’t think the course would have room for individual feedback and development so it was awesome. Tested myself and pushed lots to try new things. Great teaching style!" "Thoroughly enjoyed the weekend. Found the tasks challenging but rewarding. Pace of course was excellent and instructor instilled confidence in all individuals. Would highly recommend the course to others and would not hesitate to take another course with Sean McGrath." "Loads of great feedback, personal improvements, interesting content, lots of practice. I feel confident in my ability to coach professionally. All questions I had were answered – willing to help in additional needs ie paperwork."
