The pool sessions are the perfect way to develop your paddling skills whilst in a warm and safe environment. 

Each session is 1 hour, run by a friendly and qualitified instructor.

Each week has a different focus with a rotation of:

  • Week 1: Paddling skills and confidence building (5-6pm) and rescues / instructor development (6-7pm)
  • Week 2: Learning to roll, open to complete begginers (5-6pm) and developing rolls (6-7pm)
  • Week 3: Games (5-6pm) and rolling (6-7pm)

Each session will have a different focus which will be published on our Instagram (@plymouthunicanoeandkayak) and the members group chat on the Monday before each session.

You will need to book on for each session you wish to attend.

Things to bring:

  • Towel
  • Swimwear (some people wear rash vests and shorts to keep warm as you will be in and out of the water a lot)
  • Plastic bag for wet swimwear
  • Dry clothes for afterwards
  • Drink of water

Optionals:

  • Googles
  • Nose clip
  • Any of your own paddle equiptment (let us know if you are brining your own boat)

The session takes place at The Life Centre, located in Central Park and is about a 20/25 minute walk from the SU roof. There are also buses that go up past The Life Centre. If you require any assistance to get to and from pool sessions e.g. a lift or someone to walk with, please do not hesitate to contact with one of our committee members or email us at (plymcanoeandkayak@gmail.com) and we will try our best to arrange something.

Please arrive at the pool at least 10 minutes before the session starts in your swimwear, ready to go. Thank you!

See you there!
