I had wanted to lean to Kayak for years, and after many trips down rivers with that yearning I finally signed up for classes with Mark and Pitt. After a course with Rapid Progression I feel ready to get in the river and get thrown around a bit. The course is more than just leaning how to roll. It is full of techniques and advise on how the river reacts and what you need to be prepared for once you are in the unknown wild and out of the pool. I cannot make any higher recommendation about their patience, knowledge and overall attitude of positivity. You will find no better teaching experience.
