What will I learn?

The Beginner Kayaking Course gives you a clear, practical framework to lead safe, enjoyable sessions on calm water. Learn risk assessment, equipment checks, and PPE setup, then progress to efficient strokes, steering, stopping, and smooth entries and exits. You also practice capsize management, self and assisted rescues, group organization, simple teaching methods, and a ready-to-use one-day lesson plan with local safety rules.
