Q: How do I get started?

A: Join one of our many courses that run throughout the year, book a one-2-one session or simply turn up at one of our open sessions on a Saturday. Contact us for a chat or more information.

Q: What do I need to wear?

A: Comfortable clothing, according to the weather. In winter, plenty of warm layers including a fleece jumper and waterproof jacket; in Summer, shorts and t-shirt! A wetsuit can be worn if you have one, but they are not a nessecary. An old pair of trainers / wetsuit boots are a must. It is best to avoid paddling in denim.
