The BCU (British Canoe Union) recently revised its requirements for certified coaches, requiring more interdisciplinary skills. It’s no longer sufficient to be able to teach one type of paddlesport; coaches are now expected to be able to teach students to paddle a variety of boat types.
We’ve begun an interdisciplinary approach of our own, too, though mostly in jest.
Stand-up paddling. Harder than it looks!
Skin-on-frame boat with Euro paddle. Sillier than it looks.
