RYA Instructor Training

"As a multi-disciplined Dinghy and Windsurf Trainer I have travelled widely across the UK and overseas to train and assess instructor candidates and remain committed to doing so. Larger organisations might like to book me in advance yet remain flexible in terms of what courses I ultimately deliver until your requirements become clearer closer to the time. From full courses to bespoke training/personal development days afloat/ashore for your instructor or centre management team - anything can be arranged. My style is to work with instructor candidates in a friendly, realistic and fully-supportive way, understanding the range of expectations and emotions that can exist during seminal times in their lives when they are undertaking RYA instructor courses and assessments. Please contact me to discuss your requirements and to see how I can help you." Simon

Capturing the best moments of instructor training course is very important. Simon will normally supply a modest album of high quality images at the end of every course at no cost for clubs/centres and individuals to use as they please. Depending on the level of courses and the time available, video coaching can be provided and action can be captured using GoPro action cameras with Flymount mast/rig mounts.
