July 2024 - "Sarah's comprehensive knowledge of open canoe paddling..."
"Sarah's comprehensive knowledge of open canoe paddling technique coupled with her friendly and engaging teaching style ensured that we enjoyed an excellent tuition session which successfully targeted the skill areas identified for improvement. It's so much better now we can go in a straight line... AND we have a certificate!".

"Kayaking has been something I've wanted to try for a very long time but never got round to it till now after finding Sarah's website and booked my 1st private lesson at Lochore. I was a bit apprehensive about it but within a few minutes out on the water any fears I had were gone due to Sarah's excellent teaching skills. One hour later and I was back on shore. Absolutely loved it and already got another session booked. Whether it be kayak, canoe or paddle board you've always wanted to try but didn't know where to start then Och Aye Canoe is definitely worth a visit and with Sarah's expert tuition you will be hooked"
March 2024 - "Had a 1 hour paddleboarding lesson...
"Had a 1 hour paddleboarding lesson today with my Mum. Not going to lie I was not looking forward to it (agreed to it to support Mum) BUT I actually really enjoyed it. Sarah was lovely & very patient with us & kept us safe 💓 We've already said we'll be back for another lesson very soon. Couldn't of asked for a better first experience 👍🏻 Would 100% recommend to anyone! Thanks again xx"
