I took a BLS First Aid course with Kia, and it was by far the most informative course I’ve ever taken. He didn’t just teach us how to do each step, he explained why we do them and gave so much extra knowledge that I haven’t gotten in other courses. Kia was patient, approachable, and made sure everyone truly understood the material. I left feeling confident and well-prepared. Highly recommend!
