INTERNATIONAL TESTIMONIALS
Aaron Perales from Gibralta:
"When I came across the course offered by AHG, it was a course validated by these (STO) organisations, which suited me as it was held over 25 days, instead of during weekends like other courses. Being from abroad I found it easier to travel once and complete the whole course rather than having to travel every month. I have enjoyed every minute of the course, and I have learnt a great deal. I never thought I could have learnt so much in 5 weeks. After the course, I have been in contact with most of the tutors, which are available for advice on any issues like setting up, marketing tips etc. AHG also helps with regards to insurance".

Tessa forbes from Norway:
"I started studying with AHG in 2008 with the Advanced Diploma of Sports Therapy. The course structure allowed me to begin my studies in Norway where I live, and work at the same time. The first part of the course included a home study package of books, assignments, and website access information. After completing the assignments I traveled to Manchester to attend the practical part of the course. During the practical weeks I was able to build on information that I had studied with the home study package, learn the hands on aspects of sports therapy, meet others in the industry, and even work a few hours in the local sports therapy clinic. The final part of the course consisted of case study work, and once again I could return to Norway to undertake this section of the course. Many subjects were covered on the course, with lots to learn about all aspects of sports therapy. I completely enjoyed my time studying with AHG and look forward to participating in workshops in the future. AHG has given me a great start in my career as a sports therapist."

Nicholas Zephyrrinus from Trinidad & Tobago
"I choose the active health group because when checking other organization Active Health had the best package. I would not recommend any alternative training. I have already recommend people from Trinidad and Tobago and their experience was great as mine. The environment was conducive for learning and the instructors were very knowledgeable."

"I started studying with AHG in 2005 with the Sports Therapy Course (Advanced level). The course structure gave me the time to study in advance whilst I did my other job and at the sametime being with my family in Belgium. The first part of the course included a home study package of books and assignments.
During the practical weeks I was able to build on information that I had studied with the home study package, learn the hands on aspects of sports therapy, meet others in the industry. The final part of the course consisted of case studies this allowed me to further enhance my knowledge and confidence in the field of Sports Therapy.
I completely enjoyed my time studying with AHG and their support throughout that period and even to this present day we are always in contact about what additional courses I can attend. AHG has given me a great start in my career as a Sports Therapist and now as a Golf Therapist."
