Curly Martin - One of the TOP TEN LIFE COACHES - stated in THE OBSERVER MAGAZINE In an investigative report written by Anna Moore for The Observer Magazine about life coaching, Moore identifies Curly Martin as one the top ten life coaches. There were several quotes from Curly throughout the report. It mentioned her bestselling The Life Coaching Handbook, the life coach training diploma we offer and also described her life coaching practice.

Curly’s expertise and huge success in the coaching field had led to unscrupulous organisations claiming association with her or even more outrageous, that she has been trained by them or worked for them - this is NOT TRUE they are using a deception marketing technique known as, ‘Reflected Glory Marketing’ which lacks integrity, a quality we believe is fundamental to coaching. Therefore BUYER BEWARE! To understand this technique, visit our FAQ pages.

Research shows 30% to 40% of all information delivered on a training course is lost to the attendee. Curly always presents on the diploma course and she created the supporting manual and materials to enable you to retain 100% of the information or as near as possible. You are worthy of the best, for that reason, train with an expert in the field and the original source to safeguard yourself from diluted adaptations.

"2 years ago I attended one of Achievement Specialists training weekends run by Curly Martin. It was a great course very well run and very well supported with the aim of achieving the qualification of Life Coaching Diploma. Having just achieved my first corporate contract I needed Curly’s help again and I am pleased to say she still remembered who I was and was also very pleased to be helping me with my first contract even though I did the course 2 years ago. I would highly recommend her training courses for anyone wanting to train in the area of coaching. Kind regards,' John Lingley. JL Fitness.
