The Wellbeing Coach Training with Claire was utterly fantastic in every way. I had previously qualified as a Life Coach but the training I did, didn’t feel personal or aligned with me so I felt a bit lost! I was considering whether coaching was actually for me.

The week was packed full of information but delivered in such a friendly and warm way that none of it felt overwhelming. It felt as though I’d known everyone for years and I genuinely felt part of a wonderful group. We have gone on to set up a WhatsApp group and will continue to support each other through our journeys and this will DEFINITELY not be the last you hear from me, Raw Horizons!

Feeling really excited for the future of my little business. Thank you!

I really loved this course and was amazed at how much I learned in such a short space of time and also how much my confidence grew in coaching.

Excellent course which definitely highlighted my strengths and areas to improve. I joined to help me with our wellbeing retreats but opened my eyes to new possibilities of setting myself up as a Wellbeing Coach.

Claire is a really excellent course facilitator – I am an Educational Psychologist and learnt a huge amount more than I already knew through my years of experience / training, but it also consolidated things for me as well.
The most important journey I went on was from some self-limiting beliefs at the start of the week (could I do this wellness coaching??) to absolutely believing I could by the end.
The group also made it so worthwhile and we will continue to support one another going forwards.
There is SO much content and you will need some time to digest it all afterwards.
I was initially wary of doing a 5 day course online but actually, it was easier than in person as the breaks are actually breaks in your home where you can be quiet or do what you need to do, unlike in person conferences. That made it easier for me. Plenty of time for interactions with the group and to ask any questions you need, responded to with patience.
Thank you Claire and the team.

I enrolled on Raw Horizons 5-Day Wellbeing Coaching Training knowing that I wanted to support people with their wellbeing, but unsure of how. After the five-day course, I now have a clear vision and goals to work towards.
The course was fantastic, and I’d highly recommend it for personal and professional reasons. Meeting and collaborating with other people on the course was highly enjoyable, and Claire’s knowledge, enthusiasm, and support were outstanding.
I thoroughly enjoyed the practical tasks – vision boarding and role-playing – and getting to practise some coaching too. Now I’ve completed the course, I feel extremely optimistic about what the future holds, and I can’t wait to start coaching.
Thank you so much, Claire, for sharing your experience and wisdom with us. Thank you for also providing a safe and fun learning environment in which I could thrive.

I knew I had a passion for coaching and I knew I had some skills, but it wasn’t until I did the course that I realised how passionate I was. It was very well-structured, well led and organised. Claire is fantastic and her knowledge but also her bravery and honesty are inspirational. Loved it!

When I signed up, I looked at the course as a formal credential that would augment my credibility as a wellbeing enthusiast.
The course delivered way beyond. The course has left me feeling confident about bringing the coaching process and frameworks learnt in the course to the passion and people skills I have.
I highly recommend this course as this, apart from giving you a formal certification, will nudge you into application immediately after, and will promptly connect you with an incredible network of subject matter experts and practitioners.

The Raw Horizons Wellbeing accreditation course has been a truly transformative experience for me on so many levels.
The amount of valuable knowledge I have gained in 1 week is incredible. I’ve gone from doubting my ability to start my own practice to confidently stepping forward knowing that I have the skills and knowledge to really make a difference in people’s lives.
Claire is incredibly knowledgeable and her many years of practice and deep knowledge of a wide variety of modalities has seen me develop more in 1 week than years of independent study and other short courses.
Claire is a highly skilled facilitator and the course not only gave me information but allowed me to apply my new skills throughout the week.
This course has also had a wonderful impact on my personal wellbeing journey. Not only am I taking much better care of myself and seeing my own value I now understand my mind and behaviour in a totally different way.
Thank you so much, Claire, for a life changing week.

This is an excellent course for each and every one of us to do! I have learnt so much and there is so much I want to learn about health and wellbeing. This course was a wonderful and very enjoyable way to put me on my new path in life.
It was fabulous to do the course with like-minded people and to meet each and every one of them and I have learnt so much from them.
By doing this course I know exactly what I need to ‘tweak’ about myself and I cannot wait. I love life with a passion and doing this course has made me even more enthusiastic to help others empower their lives!

Claire – you taught us to believe in ourselves ultimately and I just loved all of it! And your teaching technique was very empowering.
You crafted your explanations and descriptions with the utmost care and we covered so much material in those days. You got us all on board and we never became discombobulated!! And it didn’t matter if we did. So hats off to you Claire.
I really enjoyed myself and I’d love to find more opportunities in getting involved in more of your courses. Thank you Claire.

You will not come away disappointed from this course. It will give you the confidence to go ahead and be a Wellbeing Life Coach.
A very well-constructed course giving you a huge belly of knowledge and key pointers with strategies that you’ll always keep coming back to.
Claire is very experienced at communicating and you can feel confident that you’ll finish the course.
If you want to be a coach of any sort then this is the course to do. You’ll love it.

The course was full of practical advice, scientific facts and engaging stories and anecdotes. Loved the live zoom classroom and engagement with everyone else.
Learnt a lot and would recommend to anyone looking to start a career in wellbeing coaching or understand deeply how wellbeing coaching is a powerful tool for personal development.

The course provided me with a greater awareness of wellbeing, and I was able to explore my inner self through self-reflection. I enjoyed the meditation and breath to prepare each day.
The course provided a safe space that enabled me to be open and transparent and the opportunity to ask questions. I enjoyed going into groups and doing coaching, and meditation. The exercises were also enjoyable.
When the course came to an end and I was told that I am now a certified coach it was a reflection of the intense work put in during the five-day course. The fact I also would be receiving x3 certificates for completing the course will provide me with the platform to apply for positions relating to wellbeing pertaining to NHS and school etc and the opportunity of setting up my own business.
I fully recommend the wellbeing course to create a positive change of direction.

I searched for a course suited to my needs, my learning and my coaching requirements. Coaching is such a vast field – I feared I would never really find the course I “clicked” with. Then I came across RAW HORIZONS- the modules and layout of the course over the 5 days with double accreditation was perfect for what I needed.
The other students were a great bunch of people to learn with, and I really do feel we all got something from each other.
The content of the course is intense but Claire manages to get through it in a light/upbeat way that encourages learning/questions/discussion.
I can’t recommend this course enough.

The course and delivery were absolutely excellent, I loved every minute! Claire was clear, open, supportive, patient, funny and so knowledgeable. She has such a lovely way about her, I’m so glad I signed up. I feel I’ve had such fabulous training, I feel equipped to start my business, thank you!

I am so grateful to Claire for sharing her wisdom and expertise so wholeheartedly. I learnt more in a week than I have learnt in years on university courses!
Andrea’s additional business modules were also hugely helpful.
Thank you for leaving me feeling so inspired!

I spent the most amazing, awesome week with Dr Claire Maguire training to be a coach.
Dr Claire’s numerous examples of her clients made it easy to understand the content and relate to our own experiences. The course is very well designed and gives you the confidence to start working as a coach immediately.
The bonus of the Business Module is full of information and useful tips and tricks, which would help me tremendously going forward with my website, marketing, getting insurance, data protection, etc.
I feel confident and ready to start my journey as a Coach.
Thank you Raw Horizons team for all the support, prompt communication and answering calls.

Having been a coach for ten years I used the course as a tick box exercise to get the qualification, however, I learned an enormous amount of practical tools that I implemented immediately in my practice.
Claire was a very patient teacher and managed to keep the pace despite the varying levels of experience. I highly recommend.

This course is utterly fantastic! I researched many courses and I am so grateful that I came across this course with Claire and her team.
I thoroughly enjoyed all five days and cannot begin to explain in a short note how much I have taken from the course and the experience.
The content of the course is excellent, practical, rich in detail and the modules are very well structured. Not only does the course train you on the ‘profession’ itself but also gives tips on how to build your brand and business which is so helpful in what can be an overwhelming time.
As an instructor, Claire is highly professional and has a warm and welcoming tone. This enabled a community feel between the course students for the week – we were able to share openly which enhanced our learning and experience further. I felt supported throughout the week and going forward.
I could go on and on with all the positives about both this course and Raw Horizons as a provider, however, I will end with a clear recommendation – if you are wanting this type of qualification but are unsure which course to choose – go for this one – you will not be disappointed.
