Learn to Kayak - Flatwater introduction that includes equipment knowledge and safety, stroke technique and rolling.

Learn to Kayak - Moving water and whitewater instruction that focuses on understanding river hydrology, learning about river safety and navigation, while developing the skills to independently continue on with your own paddling development.

Specialty Clinics: Rolling, stroke, slalom, freestyle, river running, big water, creek boating, guiding, and trip planning.

Private Instruction - Contact us for group and/or individual rates.  Most of our instructional programming operates around private instruction.

Youth Leadership Development - This program is open to youth
of all ages and adults that act like youth.  Our focus is to develop
the paddling skills of slalom and freestyle and incorporate them into
the overall whitewater experience.  From this, the program allows for
the development of leadership skills that will enable youth to
become safe and effective instructors, leaders and stewards of
the river.  Many participants have moved on to become members
of Canada's National Kayak teams while maintaining a desire to
give back to the sport as a whole.

We have been focused on helping people develop and grow through paddle sports and our perspective is that each individual and group has needs and desires specific to them.  As a result we do not list all our programs that are available, instead choosing to accommodate our clientele by allowing them to design their experience through self direction.

Our philosophy is that you take from the river and apply not only to paddling, but life and personal development.  Our learning facilitation blends a mix of technical skill, cognitive awareness and development, physiological response and conditioning, goal setting and whatever it is we feel needs to be creatively added to your paddling.  

To provide an example of common instructional courses and clinics, Paddle Performance has offered the following programs to individuals and organizations.
Instruction:
Paddle Performance runs a variety of skills courses from
introductory courses, specialty and private clinics and trips, to youth paddling programs that include slalom, freestyle and leadership.
