AI summary of reviews

Consistently knowledgeable, patient and engaging trainers are the provider’s clearest strength, making complex theory accessible through humour, real-life examples, discussion and hands-on practice. Attendees value the safe, supportive atmosphere, clear explanations, thoughtful adaptations and opportunities to ask questions and repeat techniques until confident. Courses are generally well structured and paced, with useful breaks, and learning transfers directly to workplace practice and everyday situations; a few attendees find some sessions longer or more repetitive than necessary.

Learning the guards and breakaways very awesome, the interactivity of the lesson aided loads into embedding the knowledge. The theory in the morning was a solid recap of the topics covered in level 1 while building upon them in a meaningful way with a manageable amount of Information.

Crystal, Anna, and Ben were great. Made us feel really comfortable and explained in detail. The part that I took away most is that the best breakaway is no breakaway, and that using our talking skills and knowledge of the children will be enough to support them most of the time.

Absolutely brilliant, loved the training and it gave a really good insight for me in the theory side and especially the practical side learning how to break away through very effective methods in numerous situations. I learnt some really key points that will stick with me in my day to day job and it has been really helpful and delivered great.

This course was very thorough and all trainers were experts in the delivery of each part. Corrections were made throughout to ensure all trainees knew exactly what and why they were being corrected, showing the risks that come if strategies are done properly. The course had many good anecdotes that give perpective and reasoning behind each choice of defence. It was child focused and highlighted the safety of children as a priority without demonising the behaviours seen in schools.
