How many sea kayakers do you know who talk about their various aches and pains or injuries associated with their kayaking? Have you had to stop kayaking because of injuries? Are you finding it more difficult to get out of your kayak these days?!Jennie Sutton, Retired Physiotherapist, will be discussing the various common injuries, why we develop them and how to avoid them. This evening presentation will cover anatomy and posture, kayak fit, paddling techniques, kayak gear and guidance with stretching and strengthening key muscle groups. Bring your questions and let’s find solutions to help keep us paddling!
