White Water Coaching
Spent the whole of last week coaching white water kayaking to a group of intermediate paddlers, looking at developing their already exsiting skills into a more modern, dynamic and proactive style of paddling on white water.

BCU/UKCC Level 1 in Cornwall
Spent the last week travelling down to Cornwall with good friend Jeremy running a BCU/UKCC Level 1 Coach in Paddlesport, the weather was very challenging with strong winds. The course operated from Penzance lido and the inner harbour. All course members will now go on to provide local children with taster sessions and encouraging them to take up the sport.

Spent the week in Spain, Costa Blanca climbing with Duchy College and good friend Mark Agnew. Based at the Orange House in Finestrat we visited and climbed at various locations including Calpe, Font d Axia, Montesa, a full mountaineering day on Puig Campana and our last day was spent climbing the famous landmark Penon de Ifach.
A great week, good weather and even better climbing.

BCU White Water Safety & Rescue
Over the past several weekends I have been delivering BCU White Water Safety & Rescue Courses for members of the Port of Plymouth Canoe Club. During the programmes we have looked at throwline priniciples, anchor set ups, rapid protection, live bait, equipment, extractions of swimmers and entrapments, retrieval of equipment and mechanical advantages.
All course members were all a pleasure to work with.
