Our Philosophy

Our coaching philosophy is centered around empowering learners to reach their goals. We believe in a learner-centered approach that focuses on individual needs and goals. In addition to this, we are committed to developing coaches and leaders who can inspire the next generation of paddlers.

We believe that by investing in the development of coaches and leaders within paddlesports, we can create a positive and supportive environment for learners to thrive in. Through our courses, we aim to foster a community of passionate and skilled paddlers who are driven to achieve their goals both on and off the water.

Glen Scott

“my passion is to inspire and create opportunities for people to realise their paddling goals" With this in mind GSKayaking was born.

Beginning my paddling journey in my early teens I was instantly hooked! starting out at the local canoe club I ventured out into the world of surf kayaking , sea kayaking and Whitewater.

Now almost 20 years on and 13 years in the industry as a coach ,leader and guide across paddlesport, sailing ,climbing and many other outdoor pursuits. My focus is delivering quality coaching and qualifications. having the opportunity to support new coaches and leaders along their journey is awesome , especially those operating at the grass roots levels!
