100% Recommend

Absolutely loved this course! The knowledge that I learnt has shaped the groomer I am today. The support from Stephanie was fantastic! The level of the assignments were perfect. Enough guidance to get me started with a great list of books etc to expand that knowledge further. The support doesn't end after completion of the course. The community and continued information/access to webinars/interviews etc ensure that I continue to keep updated and can continue with my CPD. I would 💯 recommend this course to anyone.

I Found It So Therapeutic!

An absolutely fabulous and engaging course which I really loved every minute of, it even helped me relax when I was doing every Unit as I found it so therapeutic! Loved every Unit and my confidence has grown after realising that there are other folk like me who want to dig deeper into understanding and making our little furry friends as happy as can be in a safe and trusting environment. Great guidance and tutors too! x

The perfect mix of grooming and behaviour!

This course gave me the confidence to completely reinvent my business and work the way I truly want to. Stephanie was a fantastic tutor (and is still a huge support to me now). I spent years trying to find a grooming course that matched my ethics and values and this ticked every box. Its the perfect mix of behaviour and grooming. If you’re questioning whether or not to do the course my advice is don’t hesitate!

More than a course, it's a community!

The Holistic Grooming Academy is an absolute must! It has taught me so much about working alongside dogs. Before discovering the Academy and becoming a graduate, I thought i was a bit odd and alone believing there should be alternative ways to make the grooming process different for dogs, more relaxing, more choice. Finding Stephanie's work and the ethos of the Academy was a real revelation for me. The units are fascinating, educational and really make you think. I have completely changed how I groom, and the experience for the dogs and for me is so much more enriching. It's more than just a course it's a community that supports and makes you feel anything is possible even when faced with challenges. Highly recommended !

Loved the course content!

I absolutely love the course content, the way that holistic grooming makes you think outside the box and marrying up dog behaviour, training and grooming is so important. I’ve learnt so much and not even half way through. Each time I finish a unit, I want to get on with the next to see what more info is coming! Highly recommend 💗

I'm now confident I'm doing the best I can!

I’m really enjoying this course and I’ve learned so much right from the beginning. I wanted to learn more about dog behaviour and how to create a less stressful environment for my furry clients. This course has done just that and I’m now confident that I’m doing the best I can for each dog I groom in terms of their overall well-being. I don’t believe this would have been possible without studying this diploma. I highly recommend it ALL groomers, let’s change the industry to be more dog led and compassionate #fortheloveofdogs 🐾❤️

I'm so glad I'm a part of such a wonderful community!

Thoroughly recommend studying with the Holistic Grooming Academy. Each unit is really interesting and valuable. Having completed my Level 3 dog grooming diploma I realised that I wanted to be dog centred rather than a stylist groomer and the Level 5 Holistic Dog Grooming Diploma gave me the knowledge and confidence I needed to be the groomer that I wanted to be. I’m so glad i am part of such a wonderfully supportive and caring community of people.
