There are few things better than kayaking – but one of them may be teaching people how to kayak. If you want to learn how to teach kayaking, while improving your own paddling, an ACA kayak instructor class with NOLI is the way to go. Instructor classes review and polish fundamental paddling skills for instructor candidates, as well as present methods to teach new kayak students and improve skills of more experienced kayakers. Classes are 5 days (plus 1 eve) in length and divided into two weekends. The first weekend - the Instructor Development Workshop (IDW) - will focus on teaching principles, flatwater skills, and an introduction to whitewater skills. The second weekend - the Instructor Certification Exam (ICE) - will put greater focus on whitewater paddling and rescue skills, and on evaluating candidate teaching skills. Class dates are Jun 28-30 (IDW) & Jul 19-21 (ICE) - participants must attend both weekends. Cost is $525.
