What do you need?
For start, you just need spare clothes. You will get the boat, paddle and spray deck from us.
When, how and where are the lessons carried on?
The courses for beginners are carried on every day from Monday to Thursday from 4.30 PM. It all depends on weather conditions, but throughout the year, the lessons are carried on outside in water, during the winter though, we go to the gym for a little work out and once in 14 days we visit a swimming pool in Suchdol in order to practice Eskymo turnovers and swimming. We organize a camp for the beginners during the main summer school holidays. For the advanced racers we organise more events throughout the year. In winter we also organize a ski trip.
