For overseas paddlers looking to enter the BCU Coaching scheme at Level 2 Coach training, we’re offering the chance to complete both 2 Star and 3 Star awards immediately prior to the coaching course.

If you’re planning to attend the Anglesey Storm Gathering on the weekend 22-24 October, we’ll run these courses on 20-21 October, according to demand. Contact us if you’re interested in this option.

Our extensive experience of delivering coach education courses, in a variety of sports over the years ensures that you’ll get excellent tuition when you attend a UKCC/BCU level 1 and 2 coach course with Kayak Essentials.

These courses will be based in North Wales – full pre-course information is available upon request. We are also running these 4-day courses across two weekend dates – we’ve found that  this works well for anyone with a busy work schedule and also allows for new coaching input to be more thoroughly absorbed over a longer period of time.
