Maidstone Canoe Club

Kids-Only Beginner's Course!

Paddle with us!  After the success of our first-ever Kids-Only Beginner Course last year, we're doing it again - and it's going to be even awesomer!  Lots of water-based games and silliness in (and out of!) boats is going to make this the most fun you're ever likely to have on the river!  Plus, by the end of it you'll be a pretty good kayaker as well!  Following the national Paddlepower Passport syllabus, this will cover all aspects of river & kayak safety, as well as controlling the boat and being part of a river group.

This course is open to children aged 7-12.  You will need a change of clothes and a towel at each session.

Full details of our adult courses and how to get involved in paddling at the Club are available on this page - please take a look if you haven't already done so.

Our courses cost £40, and are run by our friendly, fully-qualified coaches.  They consist of four 2-hour sessions.  Your coach for this Course will be Lee Horton.  Please note that session 3 of this course is on the Friday!  The dates for this course are:

If you can't attend one of the sessions, please let one of the coaches know and we'll try to fit you in another time.  Please arrive at 5:30pm - we will aim to be on the water by 6:00pm.

If you'd like to attend this course, please fill out the form below to sign up.  If you've got questions or have any problems, please contact us and we'll do our best to help.

See you on the water!

This children's course begins on Wednesday, 11th May.  Ages 7-12.
