I’ve taken several CPR courses at different institutions, but this was by far the best experience yet. The instructor Kia was incredibly knowledgeable and kept us fully engaged the entire time. Kia's ability to demonstrate techniques in a clear, easy-to-understand way made a huge difference. I left the class feeling truly confident that I could handle a real-world emergency. If you're looking for high-quality training that actually prepares you, I highly recommend this course.

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words, Cheech. We're thrilled Kia and the course exceeded your expectations and left you feeling confident to handle real-world emergencies.

I recently completed a BLS class with Andrea and it was by far one of the best BLS courses I've taken. Andrea explained everything clearly, made the material easy to understand and created a really supportive learning environment. The class was well organized, hands on and engaging which made it easier to understand. I highly recommend taking a BLS class with Andrea if you have a chance. I'll be back next year and hopefully able to ask her to train my team as well.

Response from the owner:Thank you, Maitor! We’re thrilled Andrea made the BLS class clear, hands-on, and supportive. We’ve passed your compliments along to her and truly appreciate your recommendation. We look forward to training your team next year—please reach out when you’re ready to schedule.

Scott's First Responder Recert absolutely exceeded my expectations. I am a relatively new Athletic Therapist who was looking for my first recert and didn't know what to expect from a recert that wasn't led by an athletic therapist. Scott was able to make the class engaging, was able to challenge each of us individually based on our strengths and weakness, helped me learn to really "own" the leadership role in responding, and brought along a strong sense of humour that kept me engaged. Scott was able to provide extra advice from having worked in the field and was able to help me refine specific techniques such as D.I.Y Tourniquets. Scott has a passion for helping to produce competent responders and it shows through his work, preparation, and adaptability. Highly Recommend!

Response from the owner:Thank you, Taelon! We're so glad Scott's First Responder recertification exceeded your expectations, especially as a new Athletic Therapist looking to refine techniques like D.I.Y Tourniquets in North York. We agree, Scott's passion for helping to produce competent responders truly shines through his engaging instruction and humour! 💪 If you know anyone who needs training, send them our way! - The Coast2Coast Team

I've had 2 courses at this location - one with Ali and one with Kia - with both courses being very in-depth and informative, while still being very fun and engaging over several hours thanks to the instructors being both knowledgeable and entertaining with their presentation styles. Highly recommended.

FYI - Each course ends with an online test, so make sure you have a phone and remember the information you used to sign up for the course to avoid being locked out.
