Testimonials

My son and I thoroughly enjoyed the course. Both Judy and D'Arcy were great roll models for my son. Teaching us not just paddle strokes but how to work together.

Brian Guffroy Basic 1 to 4

Judy and D'Arcy's approach was practical, fun and flexible. We had a range of beginners to more seasoned paddlers on our course and everyone learned so much in a warm, positive environment. I can't wait for my next course with them!

Kelly Canoe Basic

Judy and John's approach is informative, practical, and innovative. Instruction is delivered in a very relaxed and supportive manner with plenty of opportunity to refine skills and adapt to different conditions. As long as Judy continues to instruct, Kirkwood Canoe is where I will go to get my qualifications!
