I am a late forties kayak racer. My goal is to compete at the World Masters Games in Turin, Italy in 2013. I will be racing in ICF sprint kayaks. This blog will be my training diary for the next 4 yrs. I use a variety of running, weights, and cross training to hopefully become a better kayaker.

Paddling Technique Development Program


Burnaby Canoe and Kayak club is offering a coached paddling technique development program.

This program is for experienced and beginner paddlers, suitable for those interested in flat water and open water paddling. The coaches will work with you to improve your paddling technique for whatever your personal goals. This includes racers who want to learn to paddle faster, and inexperienced paddlers who want to learn to paddle well, as part of a healthy lifestyle.

The technique development program provides twice per month coaching with the sole focus of the sessions being for the coach to analyze your technique and to provide feedback on how to help you paddle better. Participants can attend as many or as few of the sessions as they would like. The idea is for the coach to provide the paddler with some technique improvement strategies to work on between sessions.
