3-Day Beginner Kayak Instruction

Based out of our riverside headquarters in the Columbia River Gorge, our 3-day beginner kayak courses are designed to provide novice kayakers with the fundamental skills needed to begin kayaking on Class I and II whitewater. Progressing from the pool and slow moving water on day one, to class II whitewater on days two and three, we will practice basic boat handling, eddy-turns and peel-outs, ferrying, water reading, self-rescue techniques, and safe paddling techniques.
