Feedback…

“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

“Many thanks for a fantastic few days kayaking off Skye. I really enjoyed exploring the wonderful scenery, seeing the seals and eagle was spectacular, and I learnt a great deal from you both. Getting my 3 star was a real and unexpected bonus!”

Seeing the seals and eagle was spectacular

“First of all I want to thank you for what probably has been one of the best experiences I’ve had in a really long time. To be honest I’ve become hooked on the sport and taken the decision to start obtaining star awards.”

I’ve become hooked

“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 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 a quick note to say thank you for a fabulous trip last Monday and Tuesday. I had a super time and I know Caroline loved it too. It was definitely the highlight of our week on Skye. I was very impressed with the professional yet relaxed set up you run.”

Very impressed with the professional yet relaxed set up

“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

“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

“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.”
