Event Description

Join us for our Basic Kayaking class and feel more confident on the water. This class is intended for people new to kayaking or paddlers who want to improve their kayaking skills, on flat water or moving rivers up to class II.

The class will cover how to choose a kayak and paddle, entry and exit a kayak, how to stay “sunny side up” or upright, kayak strokes (forward, reverse, sideways, turning strokes), what to do if you tip over, what equipment do I really need, and where to paddle in Middle Tennessee.
