The confidence to work alone
“My Level 3 Introductory Course was one of the best things I’ve ever studied.
Such a wonderful and varied combination of practical hands on grooming from day 1, to interesting theory throughout.
As a more mature student, it took me a while to get to grips with certain things but then everything just clicked. Nikki patiently answered my never ending questions and repeatedly demonstrated things which I found difficult.
Going to the salon to meet her customers and groom their gorgeous dogs was an absolute pleasure – and I worked on such a variety of breeds.
Learning so much in such a short space of time has given me the confidence to work alone and I have a small home salon opening in Brighton. 5*”

Nikki is a fantastic teacher
I have just completed my Level 3 introductory course with Nikki and absolutely loved it!
The salon is very well laid out and presented and easy to work in. Nikki is a fantastic teacher, down to earth and easy to get along with and teaches in a way the individual will understand.
One of the best groomers I’ve met and I am so glad to have had her teach me. Thank you for everything Nikki.

By far the best money I’ve spent
“I did my level 3 introductory in dog grooming at Gillsmans dog grooming training salon. I can honestly say it was by far the best money I’ve spent I’m now the proud owner of my very own shop with a very busy salon.
I trimmed a variety of different breeds and was surprised just how much I learnt in 24 days with Nikki.
I found the staff very supportive and friendly i never felt uneasy or felt I wasn’t achieving.
Nikki gave me constant support throughout the course and her teaching was very good and made it in a way easy to follow with a relaxed approach.
I felt at the end of the course I was confident to go alone.
I can honestly recommend this grooming school to people that don’t want to go into a college environment and learn at their pace with constant support and a nice calm atmosphere.
I left the school knowing I can call Nikki at any point if I needed too.
Thank you for giving me this great opportunity I don’t think I’ll ever look back.
