Learn the foundation skills to paddle efficiently and confidently.

  •       Understanding weather and paddling conditions
  •       Lifting and carrying a board
  •       Choosing and holding a paddle

  •         Pivot turns and paddling in waves

Please come 5 minutes early. Be prepared to have fun and get wet!
