Totnes Kayak Academy Coaches

Tom Morris

Tom Morris (BCU Level 3)

Owner of the Kayak Academy, I was bought up in the South Hams and have been kayaking on and off since childhood. I am always happy to help regardless of your paddling experience and will be as enthusiastic in an inflatable kayak or white water boat. I run most of the kayak introductions and BCU 1 and 2 star courses, and one to one tuition.

Lee Pooley (BCU Level 5)

Lee has been working in the outdoor industry for over 19 years and has gained a vast amount of experience coaching and leading many expeditions. Whether it be on the sea, white water or journeying by canoe, Lee has a passion for developing people skills and understanding for the sport he is so involved in.


Jo Nosworthy (BCU Level 2)

My love for paddling has taken me on some fantastic adventures, such as sea kayaking around the Isles of Scilly to white water kayaking in Switzerland and the French Alps. I love to encourage and help others to enjoy the sport and I'm delighted to be part of the Academy team.

"Having progressed from introduction to Level 2 coach in two years with the academy I should like to encourage others to follow their paddling passion and see where it takes them".
