点评:My partner and I came here to try out paddleboarding by having a joint lesson and seeing how we got on. We'd never been on a board before and were total beginners with no idea at all. After voicing concerns that we would probably end up falling in (!) we had a chat about the basics before we got into the water. Our instructor was Lorraine who was very calm and knowledgeable. Her relaxed attitude gave us the confidence that we'd be fine going out onto the main river after only a 15-20 mins intro to see how we got on, and if we fell off it wouldn't be a big problem. We boarded in the lovely shallow, narrow creek that meets the main Thhames just upstream of The Swan grounds. This is a very safe area and a great easy spot to enter the river. Buoyancy aids & all equipment was provided. After an hour kneeling and then standing up we were totally hooked! And we didn't fall in either. We were very impressed by the location, equipment & teaching experience and would definitely recommend for a first timer, ideally with a lesson. The company also runs board yoga sessions and joint expeditions on the Thames which we may try in future.
