Kayaking: Level 1 (Outing)

Tired of watching from shore as kayakers glide over the water? Now's the time to join us for an on-the-water class designed to teach you the basics of paddling both sit-on-top and touring-style kayaks. We'll discuss gear selection, proper fit of boat and gear, and basic safety skills. Then we'll head out on the water to learn and practice the forward, sweep, reverse and draw stroke techniques so you can get your boat to go where you want it to. Come join us and expand your outdoor destinations to include the open water! After taking this course, expand on your new-found knowledge in our Kayaking: Level 2 course, which focuses on more advanced boat handling skills and introduces capsize recovery.

Kayaks, PFDs (life vests), paddles, and all accessories are provided.
