Aron and Jack were both very responsible and professional. They explained each technique in detail, including how to use the equipment properly and the common mistakes to avoid. They also pointed out many of the mistakes we made during the practical sessions and helped us understand how to improve.
The whole course felt very safe and well organized, while also being a lot of fun.
Highly recommended!
