Feedback…

“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

“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.”

A super day… expert instruction

“…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.”

Quality training and quality assessment

“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

Thanks again for our day trip on Thursday. It was fantastic and Kate was amazing with us at Loch Eishort. Great coaching and encouragement. I want to continue my paddling adventure having now had a taste, learn and develop skills and gain experience.

Great coaching and encouragement

“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.”
