Welcome to all who want to learn about kayaking.

Our group is for people who are interested in learning how to kayak but just do not know where to start and for people who have a little experience but want to improve and get on the water more. No boat? No problem, we have them. All necessary equipment is part of our package,

We offer classes taught by American Canoe Association (ACA) certified instructors with an emphasis on having fun while staying safe.

Our sessions are not in a class room but are taught under the trees and on the river in your own personal floating work station. (a kayak of course)

There is no age limitation on this sport, people are kayaking across the country and around the world from age 4 to 80!

We will also be offering guided trips on various rivers throughout the year for folks who do not have boats or who just do not feel ready to paddle on their own.

What members are saying! (See all group reviews)

“ John does a great job instructing and is always looking out for your safety. ”

—Mark D.

“ I recommend both the beginning and intermediate class to anyone interested in paddling. ”
