• 5/5 from Louise Hughes, attended Jul 2025: Great class, made easy by teacher, good explanations - time flew by, could have done with half an hour more, maybe increase by a couple of pounds and make 2.5 hours, not much engagement/interaction from the teacher at the end. Overall a v good activity - thank you
