This program is designed to give you the utmost individual attention, based on a maximum 4:1 student/instructor ratio. We start in our
solar heated outdoor pool where our instructors share their skills and instructional expertise
to get you comfortable flipping over in a boat and safely getting out. We next
head down to Flat Creek to practice basic strokes, balance, and edging. A healthy and delicious lunch is provided before moving on to a stretch of river appropriate for the skill and ability level of everyone in the course.
The focus is on basic boat control, peel-outs, eddy turns, ferries, and practicing maneuvers and building a repertoire of skills that will come automatically when you need them. No previous paddling experience necessary. All equipment, transportation, and lunch included.
