Open House!

Kayak New Mexico 501(c)3 and New Mexico Kayak Instruction, Inc invite kids, adults and families from the Autism community for an Open House day of Adaptive Kayaking at Los Altos Pool. 

The goal of this informal Open House event is to expose individuals with Autism and their families to adaptive kayaking in a familiar, controlled environment, meet our instructors and volunteers, and find out about upcoming opportunities with our corporate sponsor, Hotel Cascada.

Coming soon to Hotel Cascada!

Kayak New Mexico 501(c)3 is pleased to announce corporate sponsorship from The Hotel Cascada.   Imagine being a child or young adult with Autism, learning to kayak in a familiar, controlled (but exciting) environment, like the 'lazy river,' or under the waterfalls, around the spray features or any of the 26 water-play features.  Imagine sliding down the 237ft enclosed waterslide or surfing on the "flow-rider" when they're not kayaking in the pool.  All of that will soon be possible. 

Sign up for our mailing list today to be the first to know about upcoming "adaptive" opportunities at Hotel Cascada.

I want you to know how much I benefitted from your white water and roll classes.  Kelly your presentations Saturday and Sunday were always clear and packed with vital information.  The way you sketch out the hazzards and river features makes them surprisingly easy to remember on the river.  On the river you worked hard with each of us and I thought we class members got far more feedback and individual attention than in other kayak classes I have taken.  Glenn and Michael also seemed genuinely interested in our progress and were always willing to answer my questions and provide good feedback.  All in all the class was both challenging and a lot of fun and I feel it greatly accelerated my development as a white water kayaker.

The roll class with Glenn and Michael was awesome.  The roll has been frustrating to me.  Thanks to the instruction the other night I think I have my roll about 95 percent mastered and I know exactly what I need to work on to get the other 5 percent.  I've taken other roll classes but this one was the best. After these classes I feel very clear about what I need to work on.  I can't wait to get back on the water ASAP to work on my roll and forward stroke.
