Feedback…

“I wanted to say a HUGE thank you for an amazing week on the water. I couldn’t believe my luck when I won the raffle prize and I have been ridiculously excited about the course for months (ask my family!). Your coaching was spot on for me, Gordon, and I tried hard to take on board everything you said. I have plans for my three part homework, and hopefully Kate will see an improvement in 3 months time…”

Coaching was spot on for me

“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

“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.”

Patient advice…

“It was a great couple of days, we’ve come away with loads to chew on and had a lot of fun in the process. Your coaching is simply first class.”

Simply first class

“Thanks for a great course over the weekend. Just the outcome I was looking for, learning a lot about myself and my own learning style as well as those of others. And lots of little gems that I’ll use with our team and with clients coming through.”

Lots of little gems

“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

“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

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

“…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

“Great Course. Thank you very much for arranging such an excellent course. It was everything I wanted & more. I aim to be back next June for a similar technique based course. Penny & I had a very nice paddle on the Sunday after the course starting from the bottom of your garden. Very pretty & we saw an otter while having our picnic.”
