Canoeing & Kayaking

 

With its origins fixed firmly with ‘the birch-bark & dugout canoes of the North American Indians and the kayak of the Inuit’, canoeing represents many disciplines. It is a challenge of the forces within a fluid environment which requires technique, skill, fitness, and experiences   for success to be achieved. As this develops so does control, which flows into advanced waters & on to further challenges.
