Consistently knowledgeable, patient and engaging trainers are the provider’s clearest strength, making complex theory accessible through humour, real-life examples, discussion and hands-on practice. Attendees value the safe, supportive atmosphere, clear explanations, thoughtful adaptations and opportunities to ask questions and repeat techniques until confident. Courses are generally well structured and paced, with useful breaks, and learning transfers directly to workplace practice and everyday situations; a few attendees find some sessions longer or more repetitive than necessary.

I was a little nervous before attending but Kirstie was very good at making me feel comfortable, she is friendly and approachable and very knowledgeable. I feel more confident about having to do breakaways and restraints. I also thought the theory side was very good, and was great at explaining the vulnerabilities of the young people and understanding what they've been through. You can tell that Kirstie is passionate about what she does and has genuine compassion and empathy for vulnerable young people.

The course slides were very informative and the trainer went through all the different scenarios which was useful. Very helpful in answering questions that were asked and gave everyone a chance to ask questions and interact with the course material.

Kirstie was an amazing instructor, very compassionate and her skills were very clear. Kirstie explained scenarios and went into clear detail with every part of the course. She assessed us individually and I felt confident at each part with how she addressed us and myself individually. Kirstie was reassuring at difficult parts of the course and if parts became difficult/ overwhelming. I enjoyed the course and got everything I needed out of this with lots of feedback. Amazing instructor for Horizon.
