"If you have knowledge, let others light their candles at it"
Margaret Fuller (1810-1850) in Webster's Dictionary, 1998. Trident International Press


"Debbie has inspired so many people over the years. I took my ETM exam 15 Years ago and at the time I was looking to teach aerobics as a fill in until I found a proper job, that's what I told her on the first day of the course. Debbie encouraged me and I am still in the fitness industry 15 years later. She taught me that you never stop learning and showed me how diverse an industry it was. She was my tutor and mentor in the early days and now she is my friend and on the odd occasion my counsellor. You will not find anyone with more passion and experience for this industry than Debbie. Thanks Deb XXXX"

"Debbie Lawrence was my very first tutor when I started training nearly 14 years ago, since then I have attended a range of courses with her over the years and can only describe her as an extremely knowledgeable, intelligent person who installs confidence in her students with the delivery of her training methods and always manages to "bring out the best" in a person. She uses simple "every day" language and has the skill of making difficult learning understandable, fun and relative."

"I have done a number of courses with Debbie Lawrence. She is an inspiration to me. She has a great source of knowledge which she often delivers in a humorous, light hearted way. I am planning to do more courses with her and I would certainly recommend her to others. Thanks for all your help Debbie."

"One of the many reasons I continue to attend Debbie's courses is because I know, the information will be up to date, she is always approachable and supportive and because she still works as an instructor in the industry, she has a wealth of experience of how things work in the 'real world'!! "
