Learn to Paddle

Overview¶

The Learn to Paddle program is designed for those adults with no sprint paddling experience- or very minimal and not comfortable yet in a boat.

Though the focus will be largely on kayak style paddling, we will also touch on sprint canoe paddling with an opportunity to go out in the C15.

By the end of the 4 week sessions, you will know how to get in and out of a kayak, what to do when you tip and how to get yourself back to the dock and often people can paddle a more stable kayak.

MAX Participants per session: 15
