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.
HIGHLY recommend this course to anyone interested even in local overnight kayaking adventures! Totally loved it!!
Introduction to Kayaking, Part 2 of 2
Location:
Highland Pool

Wow, Kelly sure can cram a lot of information into two hours. He answered every question I had and more. Thanks for a very informative two hours!
I am impressed with organization and professionalism of Kelly's operation. The teaching methods are good and are reassuring to the extent they convey that the ability to kayak is within the reach for just about anybody (including not-so-young people like me!)
Open Boating
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
Before i took Kelly's class, I was convinced that a sit-inside kayak was a FLOATING COFFIN (don't mean to be so morbid). But now with what I learned in the Intro to Kayak class I feel CONFIDENT in a sit-inside kayak and my opinion has DRAMATICALY CHANGED. Looking forward to more days on the water. Thanks Kelly.
Used Kayaks
NMKI maintains a growing list of used kayaks throughout New Mexico. Here you'll find whitewater, recreational, and touring kayaks from across the state. NMKI does not charge a commission, or sell on consignment. Instead, we help match buyers with sellers.
Choosing a Kayak
Choosing a kayak can be a little complicated at first, because there are so many styles and models to chose from. Kayaking is a relatively young sport, so designs are still evolving. There are four main categories of kayaks: Whitewater, Recreational, Touring & Inflatable kayaks.
