Barefoot Coaching Ltd Reviews 

Barefoot was the life changing experience I deeply needed to develop my coaching, myself and find a likeminded supportive community. The tutors we had were phenomenal, and I am taking so much from the experience.

I was already a coach when I came to Barefoot, but I lacked elements of knowledge, understanding and experience to be able to serve my clients in the best way. And working with Barefoot wasn't just about learning the tools, it was about experiencing them! Which is just what I wanted and needed.

Thank you Barefoot!

Amazing course & inspirational tutors. I got so much out of the course, I would highly recommend to anyone. I’ve talked about it so highly one of my friends has just started!

Wonderful tutors and great after-support. I learned so much and with incredible depth. I do wish that the process of submitting our final recordings had been given some more time and attention and laid out in a more step by step manner but my overall experience was fantastic and I would definitely recommend.

Life changing.

My experience with Barefoot coaching was transformational on a number of levels. The quality of the tutors, materials and the structure of each session was fantastic. I learnt so much about coaching but also experienced personal development as part of the process. I would highly recommend Barefoot as a provider.

Very good online learning experience. Great team of trainers

The Barefoot Coaching Course is led and delivered by experienced and practising coaches and this makes all the difference. The modules are very well covered and explained from a practitioner point of view. Great support throughout the course, but be prepared to put in the hours to get the full experience.

Had a great experience with Barefoot. All the teachers were lovely and down to earth (Special mention to both Linda and Annie). They catered the course to the needs of the participants and consider it 15 people, that is no easy feat. You will grow while doing this and I am forever grateful to have done this.

The most valuable and impactful course that I could have done. Both for me personally and for my work. Our group was superb - as were the tutors who were teaching and guiding us. Thank you.

Really great .. potential to be a major step in my life journey .. developing further self awareness and tools and a great group of tutors and cohort of fellow coaches in training

Highly recommend for anyone looking to move to professional coaching

We use Barefoot's picture cards as a warm-up for groupwork. I do a lot of work with people dealing with loss and change. The cards help us to meet people where they are, with a gentle start to the conversation, or enabling people to express some difficult feelings and emotions. Love them!

Despite having 20 plus years of coaching experience and being a Fellow of the C.I.P.D I felt the need to undertake rigorous professional training before embarking on setting up a business coaching . Much research and recommendation led me to Barefoot . The calibre of the training and support team is certainly gold standards and I am very proud to have taken this journey with them and other committed professional colleagues on my cohort .

I trained with Barefoot in 2018 because of the balance between experiential and academic content that I considered the most credible offering in the market for me. What I got was so much more. Barefoot are an incredible community of coaches that offer support throughout your training and career after. It's a community I'm proud to be part of.

Barefoot is a great place to receive your coach training. The intensity, breadth, and depth of the training is just right.

At the end you'll have experienced a real eclectic mix of approaches through which you'll be able to develop your unique approach.

I did the taught components April through August 2023 and passed the exam Nov 2023.

Additionally, I have made some enduring connections from the alumni experience.

Barefoot’s coach training programme is truly a transformative experience - I not only learned about coaching, but also learned much more about myself and met incredibly supported and talented people (tutors and cohort). I’d recommend the programme to anyone who’s committed to learning and development (or even being a better parent!)

If you’re looking to train as a coach, look no further. The training that Barefoot offers is the best in the industry, and life changing for many (in a good way!). The sessions are the perfect balance of theory and practice, the tutors are exceptionally skilled in their respective areas, and you’ll come away feeling empowered and ready to start your practice as a coach

I did my training from January to June 2020, and it has been truly life changing in the best way! Incredible learning and excellent trainers (shout out to Linda and Sorrel, but also Ted, Andy, Pete, Kim and Jo!) I've since completed my Postgraduate certificate in Personal and Business Coaching, become ACC credentialed and am looking to renew. Barefoot's training is well worth the investment many times over not only for the spread and depth of theory and schools of thought but also for the people I've met - I am still in contact with my cohort four years on! If you're looking for coach training, I would highly recommend Barefoot.

Amazing amazing amazing! I completed my PG Cert in Business and life coaching and it changed my life! The course is both practical and theoretical without having to sit through endless slides. Reading is provided for before and after sessions and backs up Barefoot’s philosophy of “beware the man of one book” as it references many approaches. Lots of space for discussion and everything I learned is applicable in both the business world and life/personal coaching- many other courses don’t give you both. I loved it and would recommend again and again.

The quality and diversity of coaching trainers, coaching methodologies and approaches taught on this training was matched by the quality of the learning space created by the course and Barefoot culture and collaborative opportunities with other trainee coaches.

I really enjoyed the experience, it surpassed my learning expectations, and it has set me up as I continue my journey into coaching and self discovery.

I'd thoroughly recommend.

From my first contact with the Barefoot support staff it was clear that this is a business that puts its clients at the heart on its business - a great mantra for aspiring coaches. I have 30 years experience in HR & Development and thought I knew a lot about coaching. How wrong could I be the Barefoot facilitators were excellent and as other have said the course was transformational. I did the shorter Foundation programme first and I would recommend this before making the larger investment in the full programme which I loved.
