Intermediate Kayak - Finesse Your Paddle Stroke at Sunset

Join the waitlist—you’ll be notified the day before if a spot opens up. This is limited to six participants - it is to IMPROVE , not learn the forward stroke.

This session is for intermediate paddlers looking to improve their forward stroke. We’ll start at the boathouse with a technique talk covering cadence, paddle depth, positioning, and core engagement, plus some chair-based practice. Then we’ll head out for a short paddle against the current to Anable Basin, returning around sunset.

You must be listed in our system as Intermediate.
