I would recommend Champs and our fantastic coach Lisa to anyone. My son has really enjoyed the sessions and has got so much out of them. He is feeling more confident and able to control his emotions thanks to a number of techniques discussed. His sleeping has improved and we feel empowered with lots of ideas to discuss with him when he is anxious.
Worth every penny, thank you so much!

My daughter, who is only four, really struggled with the change from pre-school to school and we had no idea there was an issue until she suddenly displayed all sorts of tics. She didn't have the words to tell us she was worried. We reached out to everyone, including Beckie. Beckie was great. Went out of her way to find something suitable to work with Milly. Milly doesn't have a long attention span and Beckie was very understanding of this and had lots of tricks to help her engage. With the combination of Beckie (Champs), the school and our GP, Milly is doing so much better and is able to talk to us about her worries now.

Chantal ran the Social Confidence course with my girls and it has really helped them to think about how to approach friendships at school. It has also given them lots of tools and strategies to manage life.

Chantal is very warm and kind and truly listens, always reflecting back the examples that my girls mentioned in her coaching.

I would highly recommend Chantal and the CHAMPS programme.

As my daughter approaches exam season as well as coping with the stress of competitive hobbies, I wanted to help her stay calm and be able to express her feelings more efficiently, something that she struggled with. After finishing Confidence Toolkit Coaching with Soumya I’m very confident my daughter will be able to utilise her new skills in order to achieve her best in any situation. Due to Soumya’s friendly persona I could tell that my daughter felt confident around her, which to me is a massive plus as my daughter struggles with her confidence around new people. I’m very happy with the outcome of this sessions and I would recommend Soumya 100%.

We've used Annette with both our children and they have really benefitted from the input. It's frustrating that they seem to listen more to someone else than their own parents but that is children for you! The exercises and the discussions have been invaluable and I would highly recommend CHAMPS

Lisa has been such a fantastic support to my daughter and myself during the sessions, she’s always cheerful and friendly and my daughter built a lovely rapport with her.
Thank you again, I’d definitely recommend Lisa :)

My 13 year old daughter has just completed the Emotional Resilience course with Chantal 1-1. My daughter found it really difficult to discuss and express her emotions, however with the correct tools, strategies and support that were given she now has become more open about how she feels and is starting to look and think positively at how she sees/reads difficult situations. Chantal is very supportive and experienced in the advice she offers. She is extremely passionate about what she does. I would highly recommend Chantal to support your child/children.

Soumya has been coaching my 10 year old son recently. He can sometimes feel anxious and stressed in certain situations, she has taught him some brilliant tools to cope with this.
Soumya has taught him to understand how his mind can easily create negative beliefs, and how he can turn them in to positives, and how to manage his nerves and emotions in situations such as a rugby match or a maths test.
Using these tools has made a positive impact on his approach to these situations and his confidence in general.
Soumya's friendly and caring approach made it very easy for my son to open up and confide in her about his inner feelings and in turn listen to her and learn these amazing tools which he uses on a daily basis. Thank you Soumya!

I have been really impressed by the resulting changes in my teen daughter since she started having coaching from Richard. She is so much more emotionally balanced and has more confidence now. It took about 3 weeks for the changes to start but she has just gone from strength to strength every week since. Richard is incredibly patient and understanding, and his compassion shines through in everything he does...and he really does care about helping others! I highly recommend anyone considering investing in his coaching services to go for it and trust in Richard and Champs Academy.

My daughter has recently had some online coaching with David from Champs Academy. She has always expressed levels of anxiety around seperation but I had noticed it creeping into other areas of her life.
When I approached David, he was really helpful and showed dedication and perseverance towards my daughter when she initially resisted the coaching.
David was able to build a great rapport with her and slowly she came out of herself to fully engage in her sessions with him.
I have noticed some great results and even had fantastic feedback on my daughter's school progresses from her teacher who knew nothing about the coaching she was having.
We had our last session this week and have gone from my daughter hiding under the computer desk, not wanting to see or speak to her not wanting the coaching with David to finish.
I would fully advocate Champs Academy for the techniques used and the skills and patience exhibited by David.

To Marie Champs Coach ... “you’ll be pleased to hear my little guy is doing great and to give you an idea he’s a solid number 6 sometimes a 7 each school morning. He no longer gets tearful he’s very focused, and he now goes into school assemblies sometimes he will tell me he still doesn’t like them but he’s going to them and he’s playing better at playtimes.

At home it’s great we talk about how he may be feeling he’s very open and he can articulate well so he will say if something is bothering him and we work through his techniques if he gets upset or worried... or we do some reading he enjoys this right now as he’s learning. He’s not had one single upset tummy since we cane to the two sessions, and he hasn’t complained of head aches so truly the difference is amazing, he’s doing amazingly

Thank you, again I was speaking to my mum and I just praise you and the impact of what you do and the difference you make, honestly what you do should be mandatory in school support systems even as a parent you learn honestly I will be eternally grateful from the bottom of my heart, not only did you help one of my children you helped both and they have these incredible skills and coping mechanisms for life... it’s wonderful your wonderful, thank you 🙏

My teenager has benefitted from the sessions with you and has come up with ideas of how to be more organised and productive. Hopefully he will be implementing the changes you’ve suggested in the coming months.

Soumya was a very good help to boost my confidence levels.I really enjoyed her lessons because she wasn't talking like a coach but more like a friend which made it better to communicate.

We have done two courses of 6 weeks each 1:1. Emotional Resilience and Social Confidence. My child enjoyed the sessions and we continue to see a positive change in challenging day to day interactions with school peers and activities. Strongly recommend Champs.

My son had been struggling with confidence at school and with friendships and was very low. After the first session with Annette I noticed a difference with him. There was no stooping and walking with his head down. After all his sessions he is a different boy, happier and much more confident. His teachers and sports coaches have all notice a big difference. If your child is struggling, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Annette at CHAMPS.

My daughter has had 5 sessions with Richard who is caring, compassionate, and open.
I feel the skills Richard has shared have helped her a lot already. We seem to be having less outbursts, more days when she is willing to listen to other people's opinions and she overcoming her fear of talking to people.
Thank you Richard at Champs I feel you have made a difference in my 14 year old life in a short space of time.

David coached my two sons on emotional resilience. Aged 11 and 13 and with very different needs the boys responded really well to the sessions with David, despite initial reservations from the teen! From the very first taster session each child was engaged with the tools David gave them and the strategies they discussed. One was able to give his self-confidence the boost it needed and unlock his potential with great results almost immediately. Within a free weeks he went from feeling intimidated on the sports field and holding back, to believing in himself, taking risks and scoring goals in matches. The other child needed help with self esteem and anger management and while this is ongoing, longer term work, he made great progress with David in understanding how he can help himself and keep in control. Worth every penny. David is understanding, sensitive and kind and also effective and great at communicating with kids. Doing the sessions online is ideal - I would never have got my teen into a 'room' with a coach. It's worth every penny. We still refer to the tools he game them, and will for a very long time to come. Thank you David!

My daughter took part in a social confidence course with Chantal. Over the 6 weeks my daughter learned lots of tools and techniques to aid her with her confidence and dealing with social situations. I can already see a difference with her, and how she reacts to things. She is only 8 but Chantal explained things in a manner that she could understand and is able to put them into practice. Chantal is super helpful and takes time to feedback and adapt the sessions to meet your needs. I would definitely recommend the course for any children as it will help with their resilience which is so important. Thank you so much.

My son J met with Marie Jones at CHAMPS Academy and attended a course to improve his confidence, following a time of change. Her professional, friendly approach has encouraged him so much and the benefits of having someone impartial outside the family to assist and suggest techniques has been so very helpful. I can't recommend her highly enough. Thanks so much Marie!

I highly recommend CHAMPS Academy. Myself and my daughter completed the Emptional Reslisiance Coaching and over the 6 weeks learnt some really practical, easy to understand and apply tools to manage difficult situations that may previously have caused an outburst. Annette ensured my daughter had the time to think of her own examples to make it real and not theoretic in the session. I have also become a lot more consistent in how I talk to my daughter about difficult situations which I hadn’t really considered before - but it has really helped us both.
