We can help you with training so it fits into YOUR lifestyle.

As a minimum we’d like to help teachers with coasteering, bushcraft and paddle boarding training over the next few months with the aim of doing the qualifications over the winter and starting to work as of April 2016.  The training will involve you coming to shadow as many of our sessions over the summer as you can.
