Choosing Your Course
Only you can choose the best course for you, but we hope that you will find all the information here to help make your decision as easy as possible.

If you are an absolute beginner, please choose a "beginner" type course from the courses available. On the other hand, if you have previous experience, it is very important that you choose an "improver" type course which is appropriate to your ability. Our courses are described as simply and in as much detail as possible and we have, wherever possible, listed how much prior experience is needed for each particular course.

Please do not book on to a course unless you meet the pre-requisites. If you are unsure about which course best suits your needs, please give us a call on 01702 612770 - we'll be happy to help.
