On a basic course, you learn what you need to continue on your own. You will not be an expert paddler, but you get control of the basics. To paddle becomes safer and more fun.

The day is a mix of theory and practice. You will get basic knowledge about kayaks and other equipment. You will learn techniques for entry and exit, we practise forward and backward paddling, stopping and to turn in different ways. You will learn how to use the rudder and skeg and how to plan and implement your kayaking trips in relation to your own experience and expertise.

Moving on

The course content corresponds with BCU 2 Star Sea and EPP yellow level. After your course, and some paddling on your own, you can choose to do an assessment within any of the systems, get proof that you have the skills required for that particular level and then move on to the next step. Please give us a call and we will explain more!

Wonderful experience

I got a gift through Live It when I turned 50. Booked the Calm - basic course and had a fantastic experience and day in Uddevalla. Proper briefing about the kayak, how to paddle, how to rescue and then test. At first I was unsure, but through coaching from Joakim I learned quickly, even tried to "fall out" and get up again. Even though I had a close encounter with a jellyfish and didn't really get away from the kayak, I felt safe with the teacher. Thank you for a wonderful experience!! We will certainly see each other again :-)

Good balance

Good balance between theory and practice. Again, a reasonably small group, which gave a lot of attention to everyone. In any case, I thought I was much better at the end of the day than when we started. Jocke, you are a really good instructor.

Impressed

I had a fantastic experience with you during last year's KajakKalas. I was really impressed by your approach, pedagogical thinking and implementation, down to the smallest detail. Especially important for me as a beginner!

Unbelievably good

In general, I thought the course was incredibly good. It was rewarding both in terms of knowledge and socially. I have learned many new techniques that I hope I will be able to use during my kayaking trips. You instructors are great fun to work with and you are good at teaching. Are pragmatic to the whole, make us participants feel that we are not so bad after all. I can only recommend others to take a course like this.

Good set-up

I thought the structure of the course was good. It felt like you were starting from what the group's will and ambition was and it didn't feel stiff and rigid. It was also good that we were able to divide the group so that everyone's will was heard. It's great that you returned to what we did the last time we met and made a feedback to it so that the memory was refreshed. The pace of the different parts was just right and it didn't feel rushed in any way. The instructions on the different steps were clear. I thought the attention to different individuals and myself was equally distributed, I also felt that if I called and needed help, you came. It was also good that you had an overview of the whole group and came in with feedback on what we did right and wrong, so we could correct it.
