I completed by TTC with Martin & Joanna and loved every minute of the training.
They are dedicated practitioners who pass on their extensive knowledge and skills with compassion whilst making it fun.
I was left under no illusion they would ensure I completed my training successfully and I came away a stronger person physically and emotionally.
Highly recommend, you won’t be disappointed
