A good place to start
A club can help you try an event with suitable equipment and coached progressions.
What to compare
- Event-specific instruction
- Facilities and beginner access
Start with a taster
Ask for a beginner session and find out what equipment you can borrow. Afterwards, think about the teaching, atmosphere and journey as well as the activity itself. The best routine is one you enjoy returning to.
