What others say:
"Wow, I have just finished my 6 week summer course in traditional witchcraft and I thought I knew it all after practising for the past 15 years but every single week I learnt something new with Sally! She has a way, a knack and a canny witchy inclining on how to teach everything you need to know in a way you will totally understand and just at the right time that you need it. Sally, you are bloody amazing!" - Kate - Willows, Brooms & Witches.
"I was so sceptical about witchcraft to the point that in the past I have been very negative about it on social media. After 1, just ONE, private learning session with Sally, I realised that everything she said just made perfect sense. She wasn't goth or airy fairy and not what the media represents. She was funny, kind and knowledgeable, I felt at ease. This was 2 years ago and 2 years on, I am a witch. Thank you Sal for helping me find my path and bringing me home." - Andrew Spencer
"I’ve taken part in several life coaching & witchcraft courses & workshops hosted by Sally Walker; I have thoroughly enjoyed every one & learnt so much. If you don’t understand something, she explains it in a way that’s relevant to you. The courses & workshops are very well organised & loads of fun. I enjoy them so much, I’m usually one of the first people to sign up for them. My magical knowledge has increased so much more since taking part in the courses & workshops than it has from reading books on the subject alone. If she sets homework & you have trouble sourcing any of the ingredients, she helps you find alternatives from your kitchen cupboards. If you see a course or workshop advertised by Sally, I highly recommend you take part, you will learn so much, have tons of fun & meet other like-minded people in the process." - Chez Edwards - Crystal Charged
"I have to say, I really love these courses that are run by Sally. It's really nice and refreshing to go on a course and have someone not only to talk about a subject with such knowledge and experience but to explain it in a way that is detailed yet easy to understand. You come away from these courses with much better understanding of what the subject is about and more confident in yourself. Thank you Sally." - Emma Dixon - Cherished Little Gems
