If it’s Freestyle, it’s Burners Base Camp
The home of Freestyle paddling – learn, train, belong.

The Burners Way

Whether it’s a one-off camp or a year on the roster, everything we do is grounded in the Burners philosophy: coaching that’s personal, powerful, and built around the paddler.
Born from the original Burners youth programme, we now coach paddlers aged 11 to 70+ — from total beginners to world champions. This is freestyle for all: serious craft, deep care, and a culture that brings out your best.

Sharp Coaching Attention

We tune in deeply. Our coaching meets you where you are — then shows you what you’re capable of.

People First, Always

We build real relationships. Progress happens when you're seen, supported, and inspired to thrive as yourself.

Freestyle in the Flow of Life

This isn't just about paddling — it’s about confidence, clarity, and taking what you learn on the water into the rest of your world.
