Kelly is a very good teacher - he presents learning as fun. His classes are relaxed and low pressure. I picked up many skills and knowledge that will make paddling easier and safer for me in the long run.
Very informative class. Just the ticket to lay the foundation for starting out in kayaking.
Introduction to Kayaking, Part 2 of 2
Location:
Highland Pool
400 Jackson Street SE
Albuquerque, NM, 87108
United States
I chose NMKI because of Kelly's professionalism and strong attention to detail. I find this very important as it relates to safety. I would never trust anyone other than Kelly to provide instruction to myself or for my 12 year old son, Navada. We felt very safe and well guided under the direction of Kelly. I would tell others if they ever hesitated to try kayaking, River Boarding or any kind of paddling to first take a course with Kelly and rest assured they will be in good hands.
I had a blast at your intro to kayak class! I've been kayaking for
several years and wished i had taken this class years ago! I learned
many new techniques that i did not even know existed! I have always
been hesitant about white water kayaking but with the tools and
techniques i learned from your class, I have decided to join more classes and brave the white water class in a few weeks.Thanks for your support and I look forward to taking more classes with you!
Open Boating
What an awesome class! Everything clicked into place in my head and my strokes are so much better!
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!
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.
