“You know you have had good coaching when you notice the difference in your paddling. You know you have had great coaching when others notice too. And I had great coaching with Skyak Adventures.”

Great coaching

“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

“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

“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.”

An amazing three days on Skye

“…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 wanted to say a huge thank you for taking us out kayaking on our amazing honeymoon! We had such a good day and it is something we’ll never forget. Watching those seals follow us was incredible!”

Watching those seals follow us was incredible!

“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

“Much appreciation for Mick’s tuition over the two days – patient, evidence-based advice (like my paddles being upside-down), endorsing abilities and gently pointing out incompetence that would have led to unsought-after submarine skills.”
