About this event
In this clinic you will learn how to use lateral position in your boat to lean and edge and then learn brace strokes to prevent a capsize.
Brace strokes are what keep us from capsizing. They bring us from an unbalanced position back to an upright position. A good, reflexive brace will make you all but un-tipable in the roughest conditions. Confidence in your brace will give you confidence paddling in wind and waves.
Venue: most of our class will be held on a beach near the Community Boating Center. Most of the work will be on shore or in the shallows.
Bring: Your standard paddling gear
Dress for immersion - you will likely swim multiple times.
