Feedback…

“A big thank you to you both for another memorable experience on and in the waters around the Isle of Skye. Special thanks to you Gordon for your full on skills sessions (Kyle Rhea tide race on the first morning for example, wow) and the attention to safety providing exciting learning opportunities not available on home waters.

Exciting learning opportunities

“We had an awesome day out with Skyak Adventures. The instructor, Kate, was excellent – patient, knowledgeable and great fun. She took us to a stunning location on Loch Eishort where we saw seals and a white tailed eagle. She even knew where to pick the best mussels for our dinner. As novices, her expert tips and coaching really helped us to develop and improve in such a short time. A great day: great fun, challenging and exhilarating. Thanks so much.”

An awesome day out

“…we have the confidence now, under good forecasts to really get out there on our own and have some fun and feel we have really developed skills. This is due in part to the confidence Gordon gave us and so again how much we appreciated the course and what we learnt (skills and tidal / trip etc. planning). So thanks so much for helping us to do such things. We look forward to St Kilda…!!”

We have the confidence now

“Just to say I very much enjoyed my week with Gordon, and I did get a lot out of it and I think my skills are improving as a result. Lots to think about and so many positive things to reflect on (The Kylerhea Narrows, and the trip to Soay were pretty special!).

I did manage to eskimo roll in the pool after watching the videos and Janice doing a great job of coaching.! and as John said- It’s practice A’m needin tae keep bidin afloat.”

My skills are improving

“I met so many lovely people whilst on the course and a special thank you to both Mick for his patience and persistence, and you Gordon for affording me the 1-2-1 time when we visited the “Coral Island” in Loch Eishort. It was truly inspirational and my abiding memory of that day which will always make me smile was the line “ … the more time I’ve spent being an outdoor education instructor, the more I realise I’m really a therapist!” Well the treatment you delivered on what was a pretty dreich day was spot on: you got someone with zero self-confidence there and back in one piece for which I’ll always be grateful.”

Truly inspirational

“Just wanted to say a big THANK YOU from us both for a great week on our first proper intro to sea kayaking. We found the course empowering and with the right amount of push and challenge from the fabulous coaching you gave us. You helped us to achieve more than we thought was possible. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and plan to be back for more! Please pass on our thanks to Morag, and of course Kate who was also a great coach.”

Fantastic!

“Thank you, again, for the amazing three days on Skye. We realise how much we learned during that time. I’ve been quite pleased to demonstrate the “balance” exercises to friends here. I must say, they do look rather impressive. We hope to have a lot of days on the water so will practice practice practice.”

Simply first class

“…a brief note to thank you for how well you take care of people when we’re there – gear to borrow, the kettle always on, resources to use, so much work put into helping us feel less nervous (even if some of us appear impervious to it, it is MUCH appreciated!), and so much obvious care, work and time put into running a quality training and quality assessment that is tailored to the individual students in the class. I know how much work that takes – so I wanted to say thank you.”
