Essentials of Recreational Kayaking (Level 2)
Kelly is a great tactician with a keen ability to break the rivers'
energy into a series of teaching moments that were both appropriate for
our varying skill levels and allowed each of us to build confidence at every stage throughout the weekend. My goal is to be able to manipulate the river, and all of its energy, with the grace and finesse that Kelly has!
This is without a doubt the best outdoor class I have ever taken. Kelly
and his team are totally skilled as teachers. I plan to sign up for every
class I can with this team. My enjoyment and skill level immediately
improved after one day. I didn't realize I was using body memory from
paddling a canoe many years ago that were not good practice with a
kayak. Take these classes! They're a great return on investment and a
whole lot of fun besides!--Kate O'Neill, 54yo teacher

Excellent, well-organized class and instruction. The individualed attention on the Rio Grande trip really helped me put
newfound skills into practice. I also learned many skills
best taught in open river conditions. It's really a pleasure to experience top-notch teaching. --Kate O'Neill, 54yo teacher

Kayak New Mexico 501(c)3 "Open House" - Adaptive Paddling for kids with Cancer or Down syndrome
It's not about kayaking...it's about overcoming fears, building courage and self confidence!
Great course, tons of information, practice. Marcel and Kelly are the
perfect teaching duo, the Oliver and Stan of coastal waters techniques.
Enjoyed sharing the experience with everyone who attended.

Thanks for the info and the good class. Even though I've owned recreational kayaks for many years, I learned far more than I ever knew before.

Kelly is fun and enthousiastic about kayaking. If you're interested in learning to kayak, this is the place to be!
I would wholeheartedly recommend this course. My girls had a blast and I thought the price was a bargain. My girls are young enough, so almost any activity is still "fresh" for them…they are up for about anything. The girls had a blast - they really enjoyed this.

Kelly is very articulate with great attention to detail. He comes highly recommended by those who have attended his courses.
It is amazing to do something so challenging. I feel like I have accomplished something that I never thought possible.

Fantastic! The instruction was top notch. The instructors' attention
to detail and focus on safety were superb. The classroom environment
was interesting, the class time on the water was a blast, and the
attendees had a great time together during and after class around the
camp fire. I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in
kayaking in New Mexico.

My girl approached the class as 'something my dad signed me up for and I don’t want to go', but she had a blast and wants to do it again.
Thanks for the info and the good class. Even though I've owned recreational kayaks for many years, I learned far more than I ever knew before.
The Kayak Roll (Level 2)
Kelly is friendly and professional and seems to know what he is talking about and an absolutely wonderful teacher. Kelly is very professional, sincere and a dedicated teacher. He worked very hard to teach me, and I was able to roll within 20 minutes of his instruction. Rest of the evening was one roll after another. I hope he can continue to hold more similar clinics on other advanced techniques. Thank you Kelly. Amit.
I love this meetup group. Kelly has done a great job of building a foundation or respect, camaraderie, and skills so that everyone has fun. Thanks Kelly for all you do!
