This is literally the best way to spend a morning! Awesome fun, really friendly and helpful instructors and nothing is too much trouble. I cannot recommend this enough-Karen and Martin were so patient with everyone, but particularly with my 13 year old, who they made feel relaxed and happy and made the whole experience, in the words of my 17 year old daughter “literally the most fun ever”. After this course I feel like I know enough to go out again and how much fun it would be, but I don’t want to go out alone because now I also know the fun of going out with others! Great for young, for old, and for everyone in between! So much fun, thank you Karen and Martin 😀
