Group Lessons

We make learning fun!

We offer group lessons for adults and youths. Examples are:

• Workouts in nature for the YMCA
• Nature tours for wildlife groups
• Badge workshops for Girl Scouts
• Team building workshops for employers

Every group is different but all ages and abilities can learn to kayak. . . boys, girls, teens, adults, and seniors.

• We provide properly fitting life vests for all shapes and sizes.
• We also provide different sizes of paddles for those with small or large hands.

Here is how our group lessons work.

We provide:

• Tandem kayaks for everyone
• Properly fitted life vests for each participant
• Adult and/or child-size paddles.
• ACA Certified Kayaking Instructors

Each session is 3 hours and is reserved just for your group.

Here are some of the topics covered:

• proper fit of a life vest
• looking out for obstacles and other boaters
• five different paddling strokes
• getting in and out of a kayak from shore
• balance while in the kayak
• getting in and out of a kayak from a dock
• when the water and air temperatures are warm enough, we also fall off the kayak into the water and then climb back on.
