Introduction to White Water

will — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 15:01:29 +0000

I'm running a few Intro to White Water kayaking courses over the next few weeks, which is great news. This kind of course is really good to run – I like the fact that the clients can really see themselves coming on over the course of the weekend. Shout out to Alex, who in spite of a swim in the first half-hour of his course (chilly!) stuck through the weekend and get himself well on the way to three star.

Will.
