Evening workshop with NKB-seakayak Coaches… but exhausted, too. The rolling weekend was successful: 16 hours in 2 swimming pools, 50 Dutch kayakers busy with Greenland-style rolling inspired by Freya Hoffmeister. Individual Euro-style rollers experiencing a different slow-motion approach, coaches getting acquainted with other ways of teaching, qayaqunderground discovering new concepts, and all having a lot of fun: it was great to see all those people leaving the sessions with a big smile on their face.
Here are the first impressions. More extensive reports and pictures follow soon

The Saturday-crew having dinner in Freya’s camper. Chinese food before a rolling class…Tip of the day:
.. don’t forget to drink when you spent your days in a indoor swimming pool! Though you are standing in the water, dehydration goes on. So you should drink a lot of water. I forgot this (at least did not enough), resulting in a bloody headache afterwards. Grrr…. I shouldn't only know, but also do better ;-(

Indeed a great clinic Hans! As an attender I'm more than satisfied with all the new techniques I've learned.
Thank you all for this wonderful opportunity.
