About us here at PTP Coaching
Tank's background
Tank - I have been paddling for 23 years and from the first time my dad put me in a boat I knew it was for me! I have grown up paddling at my local youth club and was given the rare opportunity when I was 16 to do a first decent of the Zanska River in India. I started coaching in 2008 and have used the opportunity to paddle and coach everywhere and anywhere, but mostly white water. I head up the white water kayak/canoe trips, open water and sometimes you can catch me touring. You can always spot me on the river in a custom colour Machno.
Pia's background
I have been paddling 16 years and started coaching back in 2008 at PGL on the Isle of Wight, coaching on a sheltered beach with tidal influences, I then moved on to rivers, leading for a season on the Dordogne and coaching at Le Lac. I have paddled the classics such as the Dart Loop, Lower Tyrweryn, La Canche and Pontcysyllte aquaduct. I head up most of the touring, open water or white water canoe trips as well as the FSRT's. You can always spot me on the river in my one of a kind purple canoe!
