We speak to North Berwick Kayak Club
coach, Leslie Aitkenhead who enthusiastically coaches young paddlers. Originally picking up paddling later in life, Leslie shares her journey as an older paddler to becoming a club coach out of necessity. Leslie shares how her approach to coaching includes the use of children's’ imagination during sessions, and offers some great advice for aspiring coaches and in particular, how to learn through fun.
