Pool Training

Are you as comfortable hanging upside down in the water as paddling right way up? Come and practice in the warmth and comfort of the pool then!

Pool training at Tromsøbadet

We regularly organise kayak practice sessions in the indoor warmth and comfort of Tromsøbadet. This is a great way to hone your paddling skills, particularly during the cold and dark periods of the year when you may not want to hang around upside down in the cold sea!

Normal training times are as follows (but please check out our Spond group for updates and to sign up):

Thursday 19:30-21:00 - Rolling and practising of other paddling skills is the focus here. This is not a formally instructed session, rather a place to learn as a group of peers. Don’t worry if you’re new though, there is usually someone on hand to give some tips. We share this session with Tromsø havpadleklubb.

Tuesday 19:30-21:00 - Kajakkpolo is the name of the game. This is mostly a fun way to again practice those paddling skills, this time in combination with ballsport. No previous experience is necessary, here you will quickly learn to be maneuver and be comfortable in the kayak!

ACCESS TO THE POOL

Access to the pool is covered by your membership fees and additional support from TSI so you do not need to pay entry to join the training. Just say at the front desk that you are training with TSI and you’ll get a wristband to enter the pool with.

IMPORTANT: this is only for joining the training in the main 50m pool and you should not use the other pools, saunas, water slides, etc., while using the TSI wristband (to use these you need to pay the normal pool entry fee).
