I travelled 8,000 Miles in 8 weeks to and from central Scotland to train with Amy. I had researched a lot of grooming schools and couldn’t find anyone with the expertise, knowledge and passion that Amy has. Every day was different. Every breed was different. One day you are clipping next day handstripping.
I learnt so much from Amy. She gave me the confidence that I needed to become a successful groomer. I now have my own salon employing a bather after only being open for a year.
I achieved my Dog Grooming AIM qualification in January 2024 at Just for Paws dog grooming training school and salon. The excellent teaching and guidance from Amy Manser meant I successfully passed. Amy not only helped me achieve my dream but gave me the confidence to have start and run my own dog grooming business.
Even though I have finished the course Amy has continued to support me with always being available to answer any queries and any problems while I continue to learn on the job. Amy's passion comes through in her knowledge and experience. With dedication to her salon, her students and the dogs in her care.
I have and will continue to recommend the training with Amy at Just 4 Paws. The fully equipped and organised learning environment provided ensures the you fully benefit from the training and is all you need to be competent in any future involvement with our canine friends.
