Leadership Is About More Than the Award
Good leadership isn't simply about knowing the technical skills.
It's about being able to read the environment, assess risk, make sound decisions, communicate clearly and look after the people you are responsible for.
Our training brings together technical paddling skills, leadership, safety, rescue and environmental awareness to help you develop the judgement required to make those decisions effectively.
With decades of personal kayaking experience and extensive leadership experience across different environments, ABC Kayaking brings a practical and realistic approach to leadership development.

We help you build the technical ability, leadership judgement and practical experience to operate confidently within your chosen environment.
From your first steps towards becoming a paddlesport leader to advanced training for demanding white-water and expedition environments, ABC Kayaking provides coaching that is practical, challenging and focused on developing real capability.
