Adult Beginner (BCU Paddlesport One star)
BCU One star is a flat water award that demonstrates an individual has basic boat control and foundation skills.  One star can be undertaken in any kind of paddlesport craft (e.g. sit-on top/sit-in-side kayaks and canoes).  We by default will let you use various types of craft throughout the course to broaden your experience.

There is no set amount of time for these awards.  We recommend trying our 1, 2, 3 or 5 day courses in which we will progress you as far as possible.  All courses are normally run during the week but may also be run at weekends subject to demand.
