Improvement is key by Sarah Eadie

The first week here at keeners is half way over and i'm already overwhelmed by how much I have learnt. The first day back on the river was my first time kayaking this season. I started kayaking at the age of twelve but it was only for a week during the summer holiday over a span of 4 years, so honestly not very much! Before coming to keeners I had my whitewater roll and basic skills, but nothing too complex. Monday was very hard; my rolls weren't consistent and I didn't have much confidence around big water. Tuesday was much better and with the help of the keener coaches I regained some of that confidence I knew I already had but up until that point had lost.

Today was pretty epic, I didn't swim once and had a pretty good time surfing fluffy bunny. I'm extremely  excited to see what these next few weeks have in store for me. I am determined to improve each day and by the end of this session I want to be the best I can be.
