Tired of Dating Apps?
You want to meet someone amazing—but in today’s dating world, that’s easier said than done. Apps are convenient, but they rarely lead to something real.
That's where I come in. I coach men and women who are ready to ditch the swiping and take a braver, real-world approach to dating. Through in-person training in London or structured online programmes, I’ll help you build the confidence, skills, and mindset to meet people face-to-face.
Get hands-on training at my Men’s Academy or Women’s Going Renegade bootcamp, or learn online with my Men’s Masterclass or Women’s Masterclass.
I’ve spent the past 15+ years helping people transform their dating lives—not just through bestselling books, a TEDx talk watched over 3 million times, and 100k+ YouTube subscribers, but through direct, real-world coaching that builds genuine confidence and connection.
Whether you join me for in-person training in London or learn through one of my online programmes, everything I teach is built on real-world experience—so you can start dating in a way that actually feels good, and gets results.
"Joining your Masterclass was 100% the best decision I made this year. Rather than quick fixes, I learned to understand myself and attract the right partners. I've seen incredible changes in my dating life. The personalised coaching aspect was invaluable. I’m dating confidently and happily now - thanks Hayley!"
The real question isn’t where to meet someone—it’s how. It takes more than being in the right place. It takes intention, confidence, and the right approach. I coach clients live in:
We practise, we adjust, we build confidence—until it clicks. And when it clicks, your whole approach to dating shifts.
Listen to how Saha now attracts the men she wants in real life, and how in-person "mini dates" have led to better connections, and a more fun, vivacious dating life.
Listen to Julia share her incredible story, and how Hayley's in-person coaching has reshaped her approach to dating.
Can’t make it to London? My online coaching programmes give you direct access to my expertise. Whether you prefer structured guidance at your own pace or real-time coaching, my programmes provide clear, practical steps to improve your dating life.
"Real Academy helps you understand not just what to do, but how to do it. It’s like gaining a superpower in dating."
The UK has more single people than ever before—but finding a real connection isn’t always easy. With 15+ years of coaching experience, I help men and women find the love of their lives. Ready to transform your dating life? Let’s get started.
If you’re looking for hands-on coaching, my in-person sessions are exclusively available in London. Whether it’s navigating social venues, mastering real-world interactions, or building confidence, I’ll work with you 1-on-1 in the heart of the city.
Every programme I teach is built from live, in-person coaching. Even online, you’ll get strategies that are tested in real social settings—not just theory.
I’ve coached thousands of men and women, from busy professionals to creatives, helping them build confidence, attract high-quality partners, and find love right across the UK.
Every person—and every dating challenge—is unique. Whether you want to approach women in real life or refine your communication skills, I’ll personalise a strategy that works for you.
"I can’t recommend Virtual Masterclass enough! Hayley’s coaching is all based on real-world interactions and was exactly what I needed to step out of my comfort zone. I've met more men in the last four weeks than I have in years, and now I’m much more confident in creating opportunities for genuine connections. If you’re tired of apps and want real results, this is the way to go."
Hear from everyday people who’ve transformed their dating lives with my coaching. Whether it’s building confidence, meeting high-quality partners, or making real-world connections, these success stories prove that change is possible!
"I took part in Secret Place and Going Renegade trainings and heartily recommend the experience! The training was unique, exciting, at times awkward, and overall empowering. Hayley and her team are great and coach you throughout the evening, teaching you tips and tricks to approach men, or rather, get them to approach you ;) Prepare to be kicked out of your comfort zone!"
"I'm not just saying this and I don't want to sound cheesy but working with you has been a real life changer for me. The work that you and your team does is great and has helped me to realise the potential I have going forward - not just in dating/relationships but in other areas of my life. Thanks for everything so far!"
"I'm a guy and I struggle with shyness. I would like to find a loving partner, but there are many social situations where I'm uncomfortable, afraid to start conversation and simply inexperienced. Hayley and her team have shown me that women aren't as scary as I thought, have encouraged and empowered me to be honest and authentic, and taught me how to flirt in a respectful way. I can feel myself becoming unstuck in an area of my life that I've always struggled with. Thank you so much, Hayley!"
"This woman is incredible - if you can, get on one of her intensives! I took part in the Going Renegade for woman for a weekend and it was amazing - a great way to learn and develop skills for approaching and speaking to men. I met a lovely bunch of supportive woman and we stay in touch and still meet up to practice our skills together out on the town!!"
"Strongly recommended! I am happy to share that I did attend the Academy and it was life-changing, for the better:) Many thanks Hayley and team!"

Great question. A good dating coach doesn’t just give you theory—they help you apply it. I work with you 1-to-1 (or in a small group), so you can practise real-life skills like starting conversations, reading social cues, and building genuine confidence. It’s a world away from just watching videos and hoping for the best.
I run in-person coaching in London, but I also coach people across the UK (and internationally) through online programmes. So whether you’re in Manchester, Glasgow or just prefer learning remotely, there’s a way to work together.
Yes! I coach both men and women, offering tailored programs to suit different dating challenges. Men can join Real Academy for in-person coaching, while women can experience hands-on coaching with Going Renegade. If you prefer to learn from home, I also offer structured online coaching programs.
Absolutely! If you can’t attend in-person coaching, my Virtual Masterclass for men and Virtual Masterclass for women provide expert guidance and personalized feedback that you can access from anywhere. That being said, a lot of folks travel from all ends of the country to attend my live sessions—in fact I have many overseas students join too, from the US, Canada, other parts of Europe and even Australia!
You’re in the right place. Many of my clients feel the same way at first. My job isn’t to “fix” you—it’s to help you feel more like yourself, but with the tools and mindset to connect with people in ways that feel natural.
Yes—and you’re not alone. A lot of people come to me burnt out by swiping. That’s why my coaching focuses on offline, face-to-face connection. I’ll help you break patterns, build confidence, and start dating in a way that actually works for you.
I don’t believe in quick fixes or unrealistic promises—but I do believe in doing the work together. If you show up, you’ll build confidence, learn new skills, and see real changes in your dating life. That’s what makes this approach different.
