Bespoke Paddlesport Training

Suitable for beginners, intermediate and advanced, our personalised bespoke kayaking tuition focuses on developing your skills and performance. Whether you’re looking for one-to-one coaching or a group session these lessons will improve your confidence and provide you with personal feedback to help you reach your goals.

We offer specific coaching and expertise in a variety of areas including:

  • White water - modern and progressive approach
  • Flat water - modern and progressive approach
  • Coach education for white water and flat water

Some of these areas will require you to have successfully completed one of our assessments. Our friendly team are always on hand to give you guidance and advice on these should you have any questions.

Please note, we’re unable to schedule kayak assessments within our bespoke lessons as our assessments are to ensure that the paddler is sufficient to paddle independently without the assistance of a coach.
