The only thing about this current location is that, parking may be limited if you don't arrive a little early. Many of parking spaces are marked and reserved for the neighboring businesses. Instructors are knowledgeable and nice. They make it easy for you to get through. This time, instead of in person class, I took an online course and in person skills check off. It was easier than driving into class, but still had to go into class for check offs. This place has clean restrooms, snack station with coffee and tea available. Got my electronic cards within hours.

I was instructed where to park, how to enter, and everything I needed was there. The instructor saw the students via Ring camera, and we saw her on our phone.

The two hour session just flew by. One minute the session was starting, the next thing I realized she was wrapping it up. Karen has an amazing and infectious energy that is transmitted to everyone in the class. The class is very well organized and even fun. Karen has decades of service with the Santa Clara Fire Department. So she is very experienced, dedicated, passionate, professional and despite it being a Saturday morning, really seemed to be enjoying herself! I can't imagine a better learning environment for this material. In summary, I sincerely recommend HeartReady and Karen.

I've been needing to renew my BLS/CPR certification for awhile now…read more My cousin recommended me a place through a friend she just met, Lori so I decided to check this place out. Place is kind of hidden, limited parking or you can also park on the street. This place is very clean, and cute haha I had the privilege to meet Lori very briefly, the owner, and she was really sweet. I took a class with my cousin. I think this place is new because I've never heard of it before and there's not many reviews on Yelp. Our instructor is Njoki. She was very friendly, welcoming and entertaining! I love her. She made you feel comfortable. The course was supposed to last 3 hours but it goes by really fast and you won't use up all the time. It was more like 2 hours for us since it was a smaller class plus the information from the videos can be redundant. My cousin and I were the only students for that class which I loved! I learn better in smaller groups. I don't like crowded classes. I know the one on Meridian always has bigger classes. You watch videos and then you do the hands-on party right after or along with the video. Njoki repeated the main things you needed to know on the test you took at the end so it stuck with me. I was worried about that part because it can be a lot of information to take in especially if it's been awhile, your first time, and that they change every 5 years or so. Be ready for a workout! I was out of breath and my arms and fingers were hurting haha My arms were sore for the next 3 days. We went through adult CPR, infant CPR, choking, AED Use and took a test at the end. Don't worry about failing. There's 25 questions, and they're pretty straightforward. The videos repeat and bold the important parts on the screen. Njoki also tests us along the way and repeats the correct answers and also reviews with questions on the test. Place was very clean. It was very cold that day and the place was heated so I was comfortable. The class was very fun and informational. Njoki was a great instructor. Prepare for laughs, an intense workout, and prepare to be extremely out of breath from all the chest compressions and counting out loud. I definitely recommend this place to anyone. The fee was $75! It is cheaper than other locations in San Jose. Will becoming back here for my renewal haha !

I signed up with a group and paid the group rate on the website. After I paid for the class online, these people keeps asking for more money 3 separate times for different things. When they asked me for more money the third time by email I didn't even bother responding. These crooks will be reported to the BBB for cheating customers. Ending up paying much more than regular PALS class at other training facilities in my area and Heart Shocker still didn't send me my card. Please be warned that these people are going to nickel and dime you despite offering a fixed group rate and then not honor that rate anyway. Save yourself time, money, and hassle and go somewhere else even if it is a few more dollars. I ended up retaking the course and paid for it all over again at a more reputable school and received my card right away.

This type of coursework is literally lifesaving but with the wrong instructor, it can easily be a snoozefest. Andrew is the opposite of that and you can tell he's quite passionate about teaching. He made sure to make everyone feel included and answered questions and addressed hesitations in material. I'm normally quiet in these types of classroom settings but I felt confident to ask questions and perform the exercises that were required. Highly recommend and would go through Fan of CPR again if I need to renew my certification!
