Watersports Tuition
With over 15 years of experience teaching a wide range of watersports to children and adults, I am dedicated to providing engaging, safe, and effective instruction that builds confidence and skill in the water. To learn more about each sport I teach and how I can help you to achieve your goals, please explore the details provided below.
Canoeing and Kayaking
I have held a UKCC Level 2 Paddlesport Coach Award since 2009 and since this time have delivered training to children and adults from a wide variety of backgrounds and ages.
I can plan, deliver, and review progressive sessions for both individuals and groups to help them meet their goals. This may be for personal skill development such as the Paddle Start, Discover, and Explore awards, DofE expeditions or for water confidence.
Sailing
I am an RYA Senior Instructor and a Dinghy and Windsurf coach with many seasons of experience teaching at all levels to both children and adults.
​
In particular, I am experienced in teaching all levels of the RYA syllabus, spinnakers, team racing and fleet racing.
​
I have supervised numerous Duke of Edinburgh sailing expeditions, providing safety cover and assessment where needed.
Powerboating
I am qualified to teach RYA powerboat level 2 and safety boat courses, with extensive experience delivering training to learners of all ages.
​
My instructor qualifications in other sports and first aid translates to an enhanced understanding of the needs, movement patterns and risks of other watersports whilst driving a powerboat.
This versatility allows me to run safety boat training using scenarios, passing on the benefit of my experience in a hands-on and practical way which develops self-confidence.
