Wanted to say your podcasts are a great find. Took up curling 5 yrs back as I headed into retirement. Love the social aspect and sweeping is an open ended cardio workout. What's been hard is getting helpful instruction. I'm up in Goderich. The Maitland Club sadly closed but Vanastra at Clinton is now going strong. Curiously people seem reluctant to offer advice and tbh few of the senior curlers have forms you want to emulate. It's a curious thing. I have a 36yr old friend I encouraged to come out, but her frustration is the same as mine...too little qualified coaching. We see new people come out, get thrown right into game settings and go away frustrated and muscle sore. Hopefully they haven't had a fall. Wondering if u could suggest where we could find coaching opportunities in this area?
