Practice time on the water covers entry technique, ease of balance, steering and how to do the different paddle strokes.
Once everyone is comfortable, the instructor will get a map and go over the route. Then you are shuttled upstream to take as long as you want paddling back to your vehicle.
Private Instructional Guide Option:
If available, you can hire your own personal guide to do your instructional lesson… then travel with you down the Grand River. The cost is $150 plus HST for the instructional river guide.
