Our Learn to Paddle Program is the perfect opportunity for adolescents and adults who are interested in trying out the exciting sport of canoe and kayak. This introductory program is designed to provide a safe and supportive environment for beginners to learn the fundamentals of paddling while getting to know members of our Masters group.

​

During the program, participants will work closely with experienced coaches who will guide them through the correct use of equipment and teach them important safety measures. Whether you're interested in recreational paddling or competitive racing, this program will provide you with the necessary skills and confidence to take your paddling to the next level.

The Masters' program is for adults (25+) of all skill levels. Most join as beginners with a median age of around 40; it's never too late to start! Participants paddle canoes and kayaks ranging from single, double, 4-person and 15-person canoes. Joining Masters is an excellent way to improve aerobic and fitness skills and meet people. During the off-season, training involves swimming, running and weight training.
