"Fantastic training experience"

Fantastic training experience. Would highly recommend Lucy and Sonya and their Ride The Wave professional coach training to anyone looking to establish themselves as an executive coach.

"A powerful coaching programme"

Sonya and Lucy are fantastic teachers and coaches, always supporting each other and everyone on the course. They have created a safe space for growth and exploration. I think every individual who embarks on this coaching journey will experience positive change and benefit from being a part of this wonderful community of powerful coaches.

"Excellent and Engaging Professional Coaching Course"

Excellent practical, engaging, fun, professional coach training program. Modules run over several months with coaching opportunities and supervision taking place in each module and between the modules. You become part of a great community of global professionally trained coaches. Highly recommend the quality and style of this course delivered by the co founders Sonya Shellard and Lucy Mullins.

"New Insights and Refinement"

I have been leading and managing people for over 30 years now but the Ride the Wave Programme made sense of 'tactics' I'd naturally developed over the years and refined them and also gave me some more coaching tools to consider. The real value of this programme (for me) was the relaxed and immersive nature of regularly coaching and then receiving feedback. I'd recommend it to anyone, regardless of being new to coaching or if you'd like to simply brush up your generic skills. My fellow Surfers on the programme were from all over the globe so the diversity of thought and different cultural perspectives was an added bonus. Thanks Lucy & Sonya :)

"Fabulous Professional coaching training"

Fabulous coaching course leading to becoming a professional coach. Great modules and leading from Lucy and Sonya

"Commercially focused, fun and packed with content"

Lucy and Sonya have smashed this... their approach to real-world coaching training has been invaluable to me already in so many ways. And I am only just scratching the surface of what is possible. Their energy, breadth of course material and clear passion for the subject is infectious. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking at coaching seriously.

"Ride The Wave #Social Impact…"

Ride The Wave #Social Impact Scholarship Programme has been a huge game-changer in my career and personal life. Not only has RTW cultivated self-confidence, but it has also given me all-important resources that are needed to make a positive impact within my network and field. Considering the effects of COVID-19, not only on patients, but also on NHS staff, I have offered pro bono Coaching to staff members; whereby facilitating a space for them to address any personal or work-related difficulties. This leap would not have been possible if not for the backing of the programme and my fellow ‘Surfers’. Prior to joining the programme, I co-developed a platform ‘theBuild’ which facilitates spaces for men to be their true and authentic self. Using my new coaching skills, I believe that this can be achieved by helping individuals to better understand themselves, their values and what they want from life. The aim is for them to live a happier and better quality of life. True to the name, Ride The Wave has supported me in riding the waves of life!

"I've done a lot of different training…"

I've done a lot of different training over the years, including more recently a lot of stuff virtually.
This programme/ course was very engaging, well crafted, super interesting and fun. They've got things well organised, structured and maintained. Fully recommend it.

"Ride the Wave is a great team"

Ride the Wave is a great team, delivering inspirational and state of the art transformative learning experiences. The tone is consistently positive and motivational and has resulted in an excellent community with ongoing opportunities for further development

"One of my personal missions is to…"

One of my personal missions is to create safe spaces for individuals to be their authentic selves. In that, I co-founded an organisation (theBuild) that serves the need for men to be able to have unconventional conversations to grow & have an impact in various areas within their lives. #RTW Professional Coach Training qualification provided me with the necessary tools in order to continue providing that safe space. On reflection, I truly take away the in-depth understanding I now have relating to ‘Group Coaching’. This is definitely a tool we use at theBuild, when we hold our landmark retreats weekends away. Group coaching will be paramount in allowing our community to gain clarity and understanding for themselves & others as they navigate challenges and barriers within various aspects of their life.
