THE LATEST

WELCOME

Welcome to The Kayak House!

A blog for coaches, athletes, paddlers, and anyone with an interest in physical skill acquisition. You’ll find articles, videos and drills about paddling, training, and coaching, along with a few opinion pieces (filed under Unpopular Opinions).

If you’re interested optimising you or your athletes technique and training, (or love a good debate on sport and coaching related topics), feel free to get in touch via the site, LinkedIn or Instagram.  

About Mel

Hi, I’m Mel (or for official purposes Melanie Schembri Waite).  Currently a full-time sprint kayak coach in Slovenia, I work with athletes of all levels from beginner kids, to elite National Team athletes competing at the highest level. As an ex-professional violinist and athlete, I’ve been in the business human movement and high performance for almost my entire life.

If I’m not out on the water or in the gym with athletes, running Kayak Klub Zlatorog, or consulting on skill acquisition and all things sports coaching related, you’ll probably catch me reading something ridiculously nerdy, (or a eating pizza with pineapple on it…)
