Summer Programs Beginner Sprint Program High Perform. Sprint Progr. Junior Sprint Program Paddling Technique Development War Canoe Program

The adult paddling technique program is for both experienced and beginner paddlers, suitable to those interested in flatwater and open water paddling. Our coaches will work with you to improve your paddling technique for whatever your personal goals. This includes racers who want to learn to paddle faster and inexperienced paddlers who want to learn to paddle well, as part of a healthy lifestyle.


The technique development program provides caoching with the sole focus of the sessions being for the coach to analyse your technique and to provide feedback on how to help you paddle better.

Sessions are held every other week during the months of October to April and every week from May through September. Participants can attend as many or as few of the sessions as they like. The idea is for the coach to provide the paddler with some technique improvement strategies to work on between sessions.
