Build your confidence and learn to roll! Rolling is the safest and fastest self rescue technique available for sea kayakers and white water paddlers. We have heated pools in the Bay Area and Sacramento for the most comfortable learning environment. Roll classes in the Bay Area are taught at the JFK High School in Richmond on Thursdays from 7PM - 9PM; actual duration in the pool is about 1.5 hours.
Practice Sessions: $10 pool fee with own boat; $25 whitewater kayak/$30 sea kayak rental (includes pool fee). For kayak rental only, call (510) 893-7833.
Note: Kayak rolling is taught only in whitewater kayaks due to space limitations in the pool. Please call us if you wish to schedule private instruction in a sea kayak for $120 per session.
Prerequisites: There is no prerequisite for this class; however, previous paddling experience is highly recommended. Your progression will be quicker if you have completed Beginning Sea Kayaking or Whitewater 101.

Enjoy two weekdays on the river by enrolling in our two-day introductory whitewater kayaking course taught on the South Fork of the American River in Coloma, CA ($20 savings over the weekend class). Our 101 class covers the basic strokes and techniques necessary to run the river - the first in a sequence of classes. The mid-week class is scheduled to match up with our 201 class on the weekend! You can enroll in four consecutive days of fantastic whitewater kayaking - the best way to learn, and a great way to get hooked on boating.

Prerequisites: No previous kayaking experience is required; however, good physical condition is important to ensure an enjoyable class; river kayaking can be strenuous! The minimum age for Whitewater 101 is 14 years; children under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
