The School provides Class II whitewater instruction for flatwater and quickwater paddlers. Register to learn tandem canoe, solo canoe, or solo kayak. The school teaches you the skills and proper preparation to safely paddle Class II whitewater and gives you the practice so that you are comfortable and having fun paddling.

Pool/info sessions take place in Nashua. The rest of the instruction takes place in Henniker, and on several area rivers selected according to appropriate river levels and difficulty.

During this course, you'll learn the basic skills of river reading and maneuvering through whitewater, as well as some basic safety and rescue procedures. We'll review and help you improve your basic paddling strokes, as well as how to perform a forward ferry, back ferry, eddy turn, peel out, and other river maneuvers
