Winnipeg Indoor Courses
Rolling Clinic - January 20
This one hour clinic is intended for those who have not yet learned the kayak roll, or they are rolling, but are weak or inconsistent. We will break down this crucial maneuver into a series of fundamental progressions and drills designed to leave you with a solid foundation for a reliable roll. If you've always wanted to master the roll, this is the perfect chance!
All clinics are designed and delivered by Wavpaddling and its team of nationally certified instructors. The Manitoba Whitewater Club nightly drop-in fee for the pool is included in the cost of the clinic.
Intro to Kayaking Course - January 26
Join us indoor throughout the fall and winter to build your kayak skills so you'll be ready to hit the water in the spring! Pool fees and boat rental included.
Our customers love this course:
"I had an absolutely amazing day on Sunday in the Intro to Kayaking course and I want to state that the instructor, Scott, was an absolutely amazing instructor! I loved what I learned and I look forward to hitting the water next year and maybe a few more courses! Thanks again!"
