Kayak Instruction |
Progressive 3 Evening Novice Indoor Pool Clinic |
This clinic is great for kids through adults who like the outdoors.
This class covers the very same skills and information
as our outdoor Novice Lake Clinic, only in the
comfort of a heated pool. The majority of our beginning students have
never been in a kayak or have very little paddling experience. We take
the beginner from the very basics up through the techniques needed for
river kayaking. Novice and intermediate boaters are welcome to refresh
their strokes and roll. This course (or a demonstration of equivalent
ability) is a prerequisite for our river trips.
What to Expect:
This course is designed for those who wish to pursue kayaking. Whether
you want to paddle lakes, rivers, or oceans, this clinic will give you
a strong foundation. Your program begins with an introduction to the boat
and equipment. We progress quickly into entry and exit of the kayak, strokes,
performing bow rescues, braces to keep yourself upright, deep water rescues,
dock enders, and of course a detailed progression into the eskimo roll.
After completion of this course you will have the necessary skills to
progress to our novice river trip. Ask our staff about books or videos
that might stimulate your learning process.
Scheduling Format:
The Novice Indoor Clinic is held at 4 locations along the front range of Colorado, Lakewood, Golden, Englewood, and Longmont. The classes are scheduled for
three consecutive weeks, one day a week. Class will be in the pool for 2 hours. Times vary based on location.
