Take your paddling to the next level and join us at the Canoe Centre Dublin for your Level 3 Kayak River Skills Assessment - the benchmark for confident, capable and self reliant paddlers.

Delivered in our style, it's not just an assessment, this is a chance to bring it all together - all that you have learned on moving water and now apply it with ease, precision and awareness.

What will you be assessed on?

Following the Canoeing Ireland Level 3 River Skills syllabus, we'll look for:

  • Boat Control & Positioning - Smooth efficient manoeuvres, to include breaking in & out and ferry gliding
  • Safety & Awareness - Reading the river, anticipating hazards, keeping both you and the group safe
  • Confidence in Grade II / II+ water - Controlled paddling in a variety of features and conditions
  • Self Rescue Skills - Confident swimming, the roll, equipment recovery and supporting others

Our Approach:

At the Canoe Centre, we honestly believe that assessments should be supportive, not stressful, & we will create an environment where you can:

  • Paddle with ease - Move with the water, not against it
  • Connect with the river - Read it, work with it and mindful paddling
  • Show your true ability - We will absolutely guide you into the headspace where you will become grounded so as you can preform at you best

Who is This Assessment For?

This assessment is for paddlers who:

  • Are a solid Level 3 Kayak Rivers Skills paddler
  • Have spent time on grade II / II+ rivers
  • Are ready to take the next step towards leadership or advanced whitewater paddling

Completed the introduction course over six weeks and loved every minute of it. Superb setting and instructor. Learned lots and had great fun doing so.Looking forward to continuing the journey and I know the Canoe Centre is the right place to do so.

Ronan Holmes - Google Review

As a complete beginner and new to water sports, I recently completed a six-week Introduction to Kayaking course at the Canoe Centre, and it was an amazing experience. From the very start, the centre felt welcoming and safe, which helped ease any nerves I had. The instructor, Keith, was knowledgeable, patient and supportive, always explaining and demonstrating techniques clearly and encouraging everyone along the way.
