I graduated from Élégance Paws Grooming Academy, there is no better place. I'm very glad I chose to study with such a great teacher and specialist. She's not only a good person but a wonderful groomer. Thank you!
I decided to take a chance and change career directions, and luckily I was matched with Francine for my externship. I can't explain how happy I am to have been taught by her. She is incredibly knowledgeable and shares her expertise with kindness and patience. I practiced hands-on, which for me was the best way to learn. When I made mistakes, as we all do, she always took the time to help me understand and improve. Throughout the year she gave me the tools, tips and confidence I needed to succeed. I now feel ready for all its challenges, and I would absolutely recommend her program. You will not regret your choice!
