Introduction to Canoe
 
Introduction to Canoe focuses on basic tandem or solo canoe skills for sitting paddlers. Presentations include dressing to paddle safely and potential paddling hazards. Practice of simple rescues and a basic set of paddling skills prepare students to maneuver safely and comfortably on still. Due to the increase of time over Quick Start, the students have more practice time and some of the presentations go into a little more depth. Designed as a stand-alone course, students desiring more intensive skills would proceed to Essentials to River Canoe or Essentials to Touring Canoe as successive courses, depending on interest and hull type.
