APS MCC student, EstoniaI really enjoyed my 5 weeks of training at AFA. Brand-new devices, very professional and knowledgeable instructors and a super-friendly family-kind atmosphere made my training very pleasant and effective. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to enjoy Dublin much due to restrictions, but I will for sure have a lot of fun when I will be coming back for my recurrent training in the near future.
