Course Feedback Form

What our clients say...

"Very well delivered. All communications before the course were clear and concise. Variety of craft to try and paddles – all of a very good quality. The course gave me exactly what I need to go away and continue to develop my understanding and coaching practice. Technical content was all pitched at just the right level for ease of understanding. Individual feedback was consistent and accurately demonstrated the areas that need improvement and the things that went well. I’m glad I came to you guys. Loved it! Thank you!"

"Very well presented, really engaging, gave me the information I need now to take away. Given clear, precise pre-course information. High quality equipment. Gained a lot of information that I can now put into practice and use when coaching."

"Very impressed. Loved the delivery – both classroom and on water. Staff input was great. The breakdown and building block approach to delivering that much content was very good – all delivered at a pace that worked for me in a way I related to and understood. Great venue!"
