#37 When should we break the rules?

Are we too dogmatic about how we teach and practice kayaking? My guest, Lee Richardson, teaches kayaking and watches paddlers develop their skills. He believes we can sometimes become too focused on rules, techniques, and “the right way” and forget to leave room for personal judgmental and experiment. In this episode we talk about teaching, decision making, adapting techniques to conditions, and giving paddlers the freedom to develop their own judgment on the water.Lee Richardson is the owner of Best Coast Outfitters https://www.bestcoastoutfitters.com/
