08.-11th June 2023 WHITE WATER FOR WOMEN LEVEL 3-4- Let's celebrate the river...
Updated: Jun 19
For all female kayakers who would like to dive into the river world.
4 days in the magical Saanen Land in Switzerland, we'll work together on our whitewater skills, we'll exchange ideas around a campfire and we'll enjoy the element of water & mother Nature with all our senses. The focus is on kayaking independently, improving our paddling techniques to become efficient and elegant on the river as we would dance with the current.
We became more and more aware of how important it is to learn certain things in an environment that is reserved only for us girls. For centuries, in a wide variety of cultures, women came together in communities. For good reasons. It makes us strong ...and happy!
This course will be held by Franzi from Los Leones and Vicky from Kriminal Kayak.
