  • THE CRASH COURSE

        

The Crash Course is perfect for you if you have canoed, taken a pool kayak class, or are an athletic swimmer.  This 2 day course is the quickest way to get you on the river while making sure the essential basics are in place.  This course will help you develop the necessary skills and foundation for continuing on your own with river kayaking. Our friendly, experienced instructors will start you out at the lake or pool learning the basic strokes and techniques.
