Testimonials
"A huge thank you for the excellent session, I could not be happier. The mix of physicality and mental skills was thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated by all the students. The feedback has been first class. You skillfully drew out exactly the sort of topics I was hoping for and have given us some valuable reference points moving forward.”
Mark Ramprakash MBE
Director of Cricket at Harrow School & Former Professional Cricketer
“Congratulations on all of the continued success. It’s inspiring to see such positive work being done locally to support young people, provide strong role models, and tackle issues like anti-social behaviour.”
Cat Smith MP
MP for Lancaster & Wyre
”I think Zak & Robbie have done a great job of editing the footage to really capture the emotion of Shay’s story and it took me right back. It really got the heart strings going because I got to share a lot of that with Shay. One thing I loved is how Shay’s story is one of finding purpose and people really need to see that in documentaries because we can all relate to highs and lows.”
Alexander Volkanovski
Current UFC World Champion

“Zak, Steven, and Robbie gave an inspiring lecture that showed us how resilience and mindset are just as important as talent in sport. Their stories and demonstrations gave us practical tools to embrace mistakes, handle pressure, and perform at our best."

“I invited Zak to give an assembly talk to my year 11’s. I was seriously impressed by his presentation skills. Without the need for a powerpoint, he gave an inspiring talk about finding his pathway in life. The students were engaged and the feedback was extremely positive. I look forward to welcoming him back to Heath Park soon.”
Adrian Rollins
Head of School - Heath Park School

"A huge thank you for the excellent session, I could not be happier. The mix of physicality and mental skills was thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated by all the students. The feedback has been first class. You skillfully drew out exactly the sort of topics I was hoping for and have given us some valuable reference points moving forward.”
Mark Ramprakash MBE
Director of Cricket at Harrow School & Former Professional Cricketer
“Congratulations on all of the continued success. It’s inspiring to see such positive work being done locally to support young people, provide strong role models, and tackle issues like anti-social behaviour.”

”I think Zak & Robbie have done a great job of editing the footage to really capture the emotion of Shay’s story and it took me right back. It really got the heart strings going because I got to share a lot of that with Shay. One thing I loved is how Shay’s story is one of finding purpose and people really need to see that in documentaries because we can all relate to highs and lows.”
Alexander Volkanovski
Current UFC World Champion
“Steven, Zak and Robbie delivered an excellent lecture to our cohort of sports scholars. Their discussion about their 5 principles that help with high-performance was very insightful and the students and staff in attendance found the Q&A beneficial.”
