Completed the River skills weekend course with Dan (and Hugh!), and it was fab! Dan is a great instructor: patient; understanding; and knows when to correct and when to praise. My gf and I started the course with varying degrees of experience, but both came out the end with new skills and a whole load of confidence for exploring the rivers near us. Dan and Hugh are a great pair, the group size meant that everyone could get one-to-one time but you gained valuable group experience. Focusing on all the necessary basic strokes, we were then taken out to some 'raging flow' and learnt loads. Would fully recommend and we'll be coming back again!
