"Andy is very approachable and knowledgeable. The coursework is clear, understandable and illuminating. The course weekends are brilliant, offering practical applications in a friendly and open environment. Whilst the focus is always on performance improvement, it is done in an holistic manner and promotes a better understanding of the athlete as a human being rather than a machine. I have already used techniques learned on the course to fantastic effect and feel that I have made a real breakthrough."

Paul Ttereve

"For over 25 years I have led and managed people. I so wish that somebody would have taught me about NLP when I was setting out, as its value in working with people is massive. Andy has a very easy way of putting students at their ease, communicating and demonstrating the skills and techniques, and of linking it all together with his own examples of how it can be applied.  I was really pleased I chose to do this course with Wider Vision."

John Collicutt

“The NLP practitioner course with Andy totally exceeded my expectations. I was really looking forward to it but wasn’t expecting to enjoy it as much as I did. It was brilliantly delivered; a nice mix of delivery and practical exercises. There was so much information to absorb which was fantastic, and so many ideas and techniques to help improve our sporting performances and life in general!”

Sarah Finikin

"I have learnt more about myself and others in these 3 weekends than I have in years!"

Tina Tage

“The whole subject has been amazing and I can’t wait to learn more and start practising.”

Phil Snowden

"I thoroughly recommend the NLP Sports Practitioner course for anyone looking to learn the detail and importance of mental agility to enhance their sports performance. The course was well constructed and Andy Barton proved to be a total expert in this field with a particular skill to transmit the information to the delegates. The course notes and workbooks are extremely well written with clear and concise descriptions of all NLP techniques and what I liked was very good examples of putting the theory into practice with true situations on each technique. The course hasn’t just allowed me to become a certified NLP Sports Practitioner but helped me tremendously to take a good look at myself as well and changed my views of the world around me.  Well done Andy and thanks for a really good experience and assisting me to move forward with a career in Sports Psychology."

Bob Humphreys

"Sports NLP has given me a depth of knowledge into improved sports performance, how to apply it and achieve sporting excellence that 20 years in competitive sports has not. I am grateful to Andy for such a mindblowing course."

Sandie Chambers

"I first heard about NLP in sports three or four years ago, listening to Andy on the radio. Having always had an interest in the minds role in sports, his description of NLP and sports enticed me into learning more about these techniques; vital interaction of power between the mind and body. As soon as I was able to access the means to enrol on his course – I did. After a three-month course I qualified as an NLP Sports Practitioner and NLP General Practitioner (the latter – an added bonus!) I can honestly say it’s the best thing I feel I have ever done. I feel I have got much more out of it than in any other educative context I’ve experienced.

The three intensive weekends – were exactly that – hard work, thought-provoking and insightful; however, the members of the group and Andy’s enthusiasm and motivation made the weekends above all else, fun!"

Anna MacCormack

"An awesome course that everyone can get involved with! Even though it's an NLP Sports course, it has helped me most with leading a happier life. It's a privilege being trained by someone who has worked with so many high profile athletes. Not only is Andy well qualified but his constant care and commitment to his class is something that really stood out for me."

Mustafa Sarkar

"Anyone wanting to learn NLP, this is the course."

Leo Barker

Stuart Chambers

"The Wider Vision NLP Course has provided me with a new insight into myself and opened new avenues for achievement. Thanks Andy."

Gavin Gough

"I attended the Wider Vision course with some trepidation as I had a negative experience with a similar training company. I am delighted to say that Andy and hIs course exceeded all of my expectations. It was fun, well paced and informative. Andy was generous with his time and the course was well structured."

Andrew Butcher

"I really enjoyed all, but in particular I enjoyed the practical exercises. I knew something of NLP before the course but wasn't absolutely sure of how to implement the techniques correctly. You presented the material and methodologies so that they were fully understood. Great. Thanks."

Chris Thomas

Andy Milne

"Despite my initial scepticism around the area of NLP prior to starting the course, Andy's enthusiastic teaching style and excellent understanding of the area meant the course was pitched at the right level enabling everyone in the group to grasp the techniques regardless of previous experience and knowledge.

I found the course empowering and enriching and would even go as far as life changing. I would definitely recommend it."

Rachana Shetty
