Mini Warriors Ltd Reviews 

My two youngsters have been going to Mini Warriors for a while. They have grown significantly in that time. Dean possesses the perfect balance of being stern and supportive. My daughter has come out of her shell and has even had opportunities to lead others which was unfathomable when she first joined.

I cannot express enough how incredibly pleased we are with my son’s experience at this boot camp, as well as his 1:1 sessions with Dean.
Since starting, he has shown remarkable improvement both mentally and physically. The structured, challenging environment has helped him build strength, confidence, and resilience. Physically, he’s become more agile, stronger, and has experienced a noticeable boost in endurance—which has also benefited his performance in Rugby. Dean has really helped him push past his limits in a safe and encouraging way.
Mentally, the sessions have helped him become more disciplined, focused, and motivated. The one-on-one sessions in particular have been instrumental in developing his self-belief and equipping him with a positive mindset to tackle challenges head-on.
What truly stands out is how much he genuinely enjoys attending. Every week, he looks forward to the sessions with enthusiasm. It’s clear that Dean has created a motivating, engaging atmosphere where my son feels supported and inspired. The individualised attention in the 1:1 sessions has made a significant difference, providing the guidance he needs to keep progressing.
Overall, this boot camp has been an incredibly positive experience for my son. I couldn’t recommend it highly enough. It’s not just about physical fitness—it’s about building mental toughness, self-confidence, and a lasting sense of achievement.

My son says that he "loves going every week and Dean is a really nice person. He pushes me to, and past, my limits - in a good way!"

Thanks Dean, you're amazing! 💪🏼🏋‍♂️

Dean is amazing!! My son is training with him once a week he makes it fun and exciting for him and always makes sure I’m happy after every session. Definitely recommend!!! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Dean has been a positive and supportive role model with the children at the Mini Warriors group sessions and personal sessions, he has also helped transform the way children think about fitness and wellbeing. In a world dominated by screens, going back to basics and helping to build physical and social confidence has been the stand out. Would highly recommend to any parents, the kids enjoy it and look forward to new challenges every week.

Dean was fantastic with both the kids and parents…..they didn’t know what had hit them 😂

🚀 Mini Warriors Team Building! ⚽💪

No game? No problem! This weekend, our Cosby Utd U11 Girls - Blue Jays swapped the pitch for some team-building fun—and it was epic! 🌟

✅ Confidence & Discipline on point
✅ Parents joining in (and paying the price with penalty push-ups! 😆)
✅ Muddy mayhem but that just made it better!

❤️ 🖤 🔥 Bring on the next challenge!

Each year, I invite a company to come in to give pupils a new sport/physical activity experience and this year (from the reviews i’d seen on here) I asked Dean Weston from Mini Warriors to come and deliver sessions. He worked with pupils from Foundation up to year 6 and they absolutely loved the fitness bootcamp activities. It was amazing to see the children demonstrating teamwork, determination, resilience and working in a way that they’ve never had to before. Highly recommended if you’re looking for something different that you can refer back to and where the pupils can apply the skills learnt to other areas of school life and curriculum.

Mini Warriors were a huge hit during our Sports Week last term! The pupils loved it and Dean did an incredible job creating inclusive, challenging and memorable sessions. He emphasised teamwork, perseverance and resilience and the children still talk about the sessions now! The impact has been incredible, and I highly recommend Mini Warriors for any school! Thanks Dean!
Some quotes from the children were:
Mini warriors was my favourite activity because I had to show real perseverance in the warrior activities. It was hard, but I felt so, so proud at the end!
I loved Mini warriors because it was challenging, but at the same time it was great fun. Best day ever!
I love mini warriors as we had to work as a team in the tug of war and we won!
I liked how Dean made us work really hard as I felt like I'd achieved something amazing by the end of it.
I had to show resilience when it was heavy to lift, but I did it and I was so proud! I loved it!

If anyone is looking for a great whole school activity that will engage the children and really drive discipline, work ethic and team work, then get in touch with Dean Weston at Mini Warriors. He is willing to travel to visit schools and give the children a real Bootcamp experience. He also gave the staff a really enjoyable ( and tough) session after school which was ideal for team building and morale.
It’s the second time we’ve had Mini Warriors and we’ll certainly be inviting Dean back!

We recently had Mini Warriors visit us at school. Dean pushed our year 5 children out of their comfort zones, promoting being active, strength, endurance and team work. All staff and children loved the sessions and we are looking forward to inviting Mini Warriors back into school, to challenge and inspire more of our children to be more active. Thank you Dean!

I’ve worked with Dean personally and with my children through mini warriors and individual bootcamps. To be clear, in our cases, Dean’s assignment has been to push us as much as possible. He is extremely adaptable and I have seen him work with all abilities. Dean will test limits and hurl you past them and achieve new set of goals that you could never have dreamed to be within your reach. It is demanding at times but Dean provides a very safe space to be vulnerable. Growth comes from breaking down muscle, be that physical, emotional or mental, and regrowing stronger. Dean does just that. He breaks you and you walk away from each session stronger than you arrived. I cannot recommend Dean enough especially for teenagers and young adults. I have seen such a change in my 13 year old in the space of a few weeks. He has greater responsibility, respect and accountability. In the current world children need all the resilience they can get. If you’re wondering whether you should or shouldn’t; you absolutely should.

Mini Warriors visited our school for the 3rd time this summer term and yet again the kids had a great time! It really tested their limits, resilience, perseverance, confidence and team skills. We even asked Dean to do 2 assemblies to launch the workshops and celebrate the achievements at the end. Cheekily even managed to get Dean to do push ups as well to show the children that everyone is equal. Great job again Dean, thank you!

Dean was professional, caring but tough on poor attitudes. He held high expectations for the children and helped them reflect on their experience. He was respectful and demanded respect. He supported our most passive children to lead activities. He left each group feeling elated (and exhausted). They all felt the benefit of physical exercise, teamwork and self-determination. The vast majority of the children wanted him to come back and teach more of their P.E! We are keen to rebook Dean for another session to help embed the important messages he delivers. "Leave the attitudes alone and push yourself!"

Dean recently came into my Primary school and ran 2 days of sessions for Reception to Year 5. All of the children loved it and learnt lots about respect, resilience and teamwork. I had lots of them asking me if he could come back next year!

Just had Dean from Mini Warriors visit our school. All children and staff had a fantastic day. The workshop was delivered for all children Y1-6 and was adapted for each group and their needs. He had a great balance between being strict and allowing the children to have fun and enjoy themselves. All children were desperate for him to visit again - strangely, it was the ones who we thought may have found it difficult and complained who excelled and enjoyed it the most!
Would highly recommend!

My friend & I joined Mini Warriors to get fit for a hiking holiday, & I needed the motivation of a personal trainer. No way would I have done it otherwise! Dean/Mini Warriors did not disappoint. A great set up, with regular changes so you don’t get bored, all outside in a lovely small local park, weather permitting! (Only missed a couple of sessions due to park being flooded!).
Dean was professional & motivational throughout, with the hour going quickly, & he wasn’t put off by our glare’s & mumblings at him when he pushed our limits.
My fitness & strength certainly improved & I always feel fantastic when the session has ended.
Would highly recommend, especially if you struggle to motivate yourself. Dean makes fitness fun, a phrase I never thought I’d say!

What a session this is for young people, - teaching resilience, building character, giving them confidence, strength & encouragement. I’m all here for it 💪🏽
My boys ( 11 & 9 ) are loving the ‘mini warrior’ Saturdays.

Fantastic opportunity for children to develop their physical strength and resilience. Engaging, accessible for all and less confident children get a real boost. All the children loved it, a great day, thankyou Dean.

Miniwarriors is a remarkable club that caters to both kids and adults seeking to develop their physical abilities and mental discipline. From the moment I saw Dean undertaking one iof his sessions at the park, I was struck by the energetic and welcoming atmosphere that pervades the facility. The moment I met Dean, the head trainer, I knew that I had found the right place for my son.

Dean's dedication, professionalism, and commitment to his craft were immediately apparent. His wealth of experience and passion for training became evident as I watched him interact with the students. He possesses a rare ability to instill confidence and discipline in his students, traits that every parent appreciates. His attention to detail and keen understanding of each individual's needs and abilities make him an exceptional trainer.

My son, Mustafa, has been attending training sessions at Miniwarriors for six months now, and the transformation in his demeanor and physical capabilities has been truly remarkable. Dean's rapport with the kids is something to behold. He combines discipline with a sense of fun, creating an environment where kids feel motivated and excited to learn. Mustafa not only looks forward to his training sessions, but he is also eager to share the new techniques and skills he has learned with his friends and family.

The training programs at Miniwarriors are well-structured and cater to a wide range of skill levels, making it a perfect fit for both beginners and experienced individuals. The variety of classes offered ensures that every member can find the training that suits their needs and goals.

As a parent, I find great comfort in knowing that Mustafa is training in a space that prioritizes his well-being and growth.

Dean's ability to connect with each member of the club, regardless of age or skill level, is a testament to his exceptional coaching abilities. He possesses the rare talent of being not just a trainer, but also a mentor and role model. His positive influence on the kids extends beyond the training sessions, as he instills in them the values of respect, perseverance, and sportsmanship.

I have had the opportunity to observe Dean in action during group classes as well as individual training sessions, and I have been consistently impressed by his ability to adapt his teaching style to suit each student's needs. His patience and encouragement have a profound impact on the motivation and progress of the participants. It's clear that he takes great pride in helping every individual reach their full potential.
The dedication and passion that Dean brings to Miniwarriors have had a positive impact, not just on the students, but on the entire community. As a parent, I am grateful to have found a training club that not only challenges my son physically but also nurtures his character and instills in him a sense of purpose and confidence.

In conclusion, Miniwarriors Training Club, under Dean's leadership, has exceeded my expectations in every way. The dedication, professionalism, and commitment demonstrated by Dean and his team reflect the ethos of the club. My son's positive experience and growth at Miniwarriors are a testament to the effectiveness of the training programs and the exceptional coaching provided. I wholeheartedly recommend Miniwarriors to anyone seeking a training club that prioritizes growth, discipline, and community.

I am someone who has always hated going to the gym and although I like being active, I've never liked working out for the sake of it, particularly with weights/strength exercises which often just feel repetitive and dull. I really like the style of Dean's adult bootcamps because they're more immersive/obstacle oriented than other fitness style bootcamps that I've tried. You still come away feeling absolutely wrecked (in a good way!) but I'm distracted enough by having a tangible task that I don't pay as much attention to the physical nuts and bolts and I certainly don't get bored like I do in the gym. You never quite know what to expect in a session and every now and again Dean will throw in a few challenges that give you something to aim for and help keep you motivated.

I've also got hooked enough that I've started having a few PT sessions with Dean over the Winter. These are still based outside but are a little bit more comparable to gym work in the types of exercises we're doing... but for the first time in my life I'm actually enjoying this type of workout and this is probably linked to having the confidence in knowing what to do.

I've definitely felt a lot of changes over the last few months in terms of feeling and looking stronger, and it's also had a positive impact on my mental outlook. Oh and I am now able to do 'proper' press-ups for the first time ever! Dean has also been really supportive in helping me work towards personal fitness goals that I've set myself for 2024.

I would absolutely recommend his sessions 100%.

WOW! A massive thank you for a brilliant two days of Mini Warriors. Dean has been brilliant and the children and staff have loved every minute of the experience!!! Mini Warriors have really inspired, challenged and supported some of our most vulnerable children through a military style boot camp- it’s so appreciated! The sessions were based around respect, resilience and teamwork which enabled the children with a poor self esteem, to feel and achieve success too- truly amazing! We look forward to Dean visiting us again!
