how to paddle more effectively/efficiently

Whether paddling on a lake or in ocean rock gardens, being able to control your boat, while staying upright, is both fun and essential. Learning how to to combine and blend strokes is a key element of becoming a more dynamic paddler.

My article Make Those Moves Muscle Memory for Canoe & Kayak Magazine describes the importance practicing boat control.

In this class you will learn to utilize and redefine core strokes, be introduced to advanced and supportive strokes, then combine these stokes together in new combinations to further enhance your boat handling skills. Having good boat control will increase comfort and maneuverability in wind, currents and rough water, advancing your skills to the next level. Making the connection between core skills and new techniques will build confidence and a solid foundation.
