About
River Flair is a small, independent, adventure sports coaching company based in North Wales.
We specialise in delivering high quality paddlesports coaching, and guided adventures, in kayak, canoe and on SUP.
We deliver courses, and lead adventures, all over the UK, Europe and beyond.
River Flair uses only a small, select group of freelance coaches, who are experts in their fields, to staff our courses.
We pride ourselves in delivering the best courses that we can and that ethos is shared by everyone we work with.
River Flair is owned and directed by Dave Kohn-Hollins.
Dave started paddling when he was at school and began coaching whilst at University. He has worked, coaching and guiding, all over the UK, Europe and in Chile.
Starting from his first paddling trip abroad in Spain, he developed a passion for travel and exploration. His travels have so far taken in all of the great European white water destinations, as well as trips to Chile, Argentina, New Zealand and Indonesia, and expeditions to Colombia and Tajikistan.
Dave is a National Association Trainer for Paddle Cymru, training new providers to deliver safety and rescue, leadership and instructor awards.
