Testimonials

I am an experienced veteran paddler with about 10 years of racing experience. I needed new focus and new ideas shortly before the Coast to Coast this year and so I approached Ben. I really appreciated his personable but professional approach. He patiently went through a program that catered for my needs, goals and work commitments, as well as unlocking areas of training that both reenergised and remotivated. I was particularly impressed with a focus on kinetics and proprioception which brings the gym to the river. Many, many thanks, if you need a comprehensive training overview, Ben is your man.

David · NZ (Full Programming)

I really enjoyed the training programme and it definitely made a huge difference. Tidied up my ski and took me to a different level in swim and board.

Dan · NZ (Full Program)

(1 x technique session) It’s made a huge difference. I’m definitely connecting a lot better with the water and moving the boat faster as a result. I’ve been working some of the kayaking-specific exercises into my current strength programme, which has been helpful for reinforcing the torso engagement and movement in particular. My stability is getting better too!
