In the organizer's words:
Learn paddling techniques from real competitive athletes - for a contribution towards expenses of €5 per person!
As part of the Festival Gutes Leben Leipzig, we are offering this paddling technique course with a guided canoe tour.
16:30 Paddling technique course
Canoe instructors / athletes will show you everything you need for your first paddle tour:
- Handling the different paddles for kayaks and canoes
- Body position and paddling technique for the best propulsion
- Steering, reversing and turning
- Getting on and off the boat
- Getting in and out of the boat
- Avoid capsizing, keep the boat stable
- Mastering light wind and waves
- What to do if you tip over anyway?
If you want, you can also try out a real competition racing boat!
17:00 Guided paddle tour
With our newly acquired knowledge, we set off on a short paddle tour along the picturesque Karl Heine Canal.
17:45 approx. break at the stilt house
We practise getting in and out of the boat again + mooring the boats. Children can let off steam on the big slide. A small snack is provided.
