Welcome, Kayakers about to be!

Interest in quiet water recreational kayaking is booming in Nashville! A day paddle on one of Middle Tennessee's beautiful calm rivers is like taking a mini-vacation, is great outdoor exercise and, after purchase of boat and gear, averages out to years of inexpensive fun. It's a great way to meet new friends, too!

Learn how to kayak on either Priest or Old Hickory Lake with an ACA (American Canoe Association) Certified Kayak Instructor with years of experience who is patient, safety-minded and enjoys passing the love of the sport to others. A private 'Quickstart' two hour class teaches basic stroke techniques, paddling lingo and paddling safety. The four hour 'Elite Otters' private instruction class includes all that of the Quickstart plus how to transport your boat, what to buy (and not buy), and practice your first Oops! with the safety of an instructor on hand. Kayak lessons include all gear if needed. Classes restricted to groups of five or less.

Nashville Kayak Instructor for beloved newbies, intermediate and advanced paddlers available here. Learn how to kayak one-on-one or with a small group, and you'll look and feel like a pro on river trips with Paddle Adventures *Plus!

If interested in scheduling a date not on the calendar, please feel free to email me. I'd love to hear from you.

It's OK to see "Former Members" on comments - it means someone attended a class, learned how to kayak and is now a member of Paddle Adventures *Plus. :)
