Testimonial for Mr. Colin Treasure
To whom it may concern,
I have known Mr. Treasure since January 2009 as he was commissioned by our school to run an after school activity. He fulfilled this role to a high standard. He was well organised, reliable and punctual. He provided detailed plans for the sessions, formed good relationships with the children and parents and went the extra mile by arranging an end of programme competition with certificates and awards.
I would have no hesitation in employing him again in this or a similar capacity.

Hi Colin,
On Partnership day of sport 1 July 09 Colin Treasure delivered a range of creative arts skills to 6 groups of 30 children from my cluster of schools. With humour and energy he delivered very physical and engaging actions for the children to copy and develop. I particularly liked the way in which Colin was able to engage children of all abilities at the same time. We would certainly promote his services. Colin was dubbed as ‘Mr Motivator’ when he voluntarily offered his services to engage 250 runners at Nicholas Chamberlain Technology college in an aerobic warm up. They followed his every move and were thoroughly warmed up for the race. He was a real asset that evening as we raised over £500 for Mary Ann Evans Hospice.

Aerokick has been a fantastic experience for all children involved in the programme. As well as keeping the children physically active it has also developed key personal attributes such as team-work and respect. The children have left the sessions enthused, motivated and desperate to go back for more! They have been inspired by their coach and show a clear sense of respect towards him. He truly has developed as role model for this group of children.
I have been astounded by the children’s enthusiasm and commitment to this programme. They have worked incredibly hard in each of their sessions which culminated in performances in front of parents and other schools. I would not hesitate in accessing Aerokick in the future and would recommend it highly to other settings.
Thank you so much to Colin from all the staff and children at St. Mary’s.

Superb professional delivery, pupils thoroughly enjoyed the sessions and got so much out it, it really is physical arts at its best, fully worthwhile investing in.

Physical Arts was a very beneficial activity for the girls. They found it challenging, yet very rewarding. There were many instances where the girls felt inspired to go and take part in various physical activities based on the words of Colin. I would definitely recommend that ‘Physical Arts’ be brought into schools as the activity can be targetted towards various age ranges and abilities.

The girls at Hodge Hill Girls School have thoroughly enjoyed both the curriculum taster session and the after school club organised and run by Colin Treasure and his coaches Wayne and Rudi.
The sessions were fun, well organised and pitched at a perfect level for our pupils. The coaches were able to challenge the girls who were more talented and offer extra support for those less able.
The coaches were always on time and arrived with equipment. The sessions were very active and the club had the best attendance of any club we have offered. The coaches built up a very strong relationship with the girls. They had a very calm but firm approach which the pupils reacted well to, a mutual respect was formed. The girls were disappointed when the sessions finished and have asked for more next term.
I would thoroughly recommend these sessions in your school.

Colin Treasure worked with 20 children from Tiverton Primary School in KS2. We were impressed with his enthusiasm and ability to connect with our children. Colin made the classes fun and lively. The children responded very well to him and their skills improved significantly. Colin increased their self esteem, giving them the confidence to try new activities and succeed.
Thank you Colin for all your hard work it is much appreciated by the staff and children.

Colin had done a taster session with a number of KS2 children, which they all enjoyed. Colin was then charged to run the after school Kickboxing Club for the next 10 weeks. Throughout the 10 weeks the children were taught about respect, discipline and a variety of fun ways of having a sporting fest of fun. The individual and team challenges were kept varied and exciting which kept a positive engagement with high emphasis on the interest and fun factor.
All who took part felt they had learnt new and valuable skills which had improved their fitness in a considerable way.

My head teacher and I saw Colin doing a presentation to schools and families in our local area. We were so impressed by what we had seen we sought to have him as part of an Enrichment programme offered by the school.
Colin’s unique style with the students has extended his work with us. He is now part of an intervention strategy to encourage better attendance, focus discipline and behaviour.

Colin’s enthusiam for his sport was infectious with our KS4 girls. They really enjoyed the sessions with many asking for details to enable them to continue outside school.

Colin Treasure recently ran a ‘kick boxing for weight loss workshop’ for the NHS at Birmingham City Hospital. IDIOPATHIC INTRACRANIAL HYPERTENSION. The workshop was dynamic, exciting and lots of fun! His friendly and enthusiastic style encouraged even the most self-conscious patients to participate, enjoy the session and explore their potential. Colin received exceptional feedback. The general concencus shared by all was, “He made us feel more confident.” We will be very keen for him to run such workshops for the NHS in the future.
