Subjects include: safety, teaching methods, lesson organization, equipment, conditioning, strokes, maneuvers, river reading, rescue, etiquette, and specific ACA requirements in the instructor certification process.
Advanced kayak skills are required. Course includes five lunches and camping. Minimum age is 18.

Custom
Because our preset course dates cannot fit everyone's schedule, we offer lessons on a private/custom basis. Private/Custom Instruction is completely geared toward your goals and expectations. Private/Custom Instruction is ideal for people who want to learn with their friends and enjoy the unique relationship which comes from a closed course format. Includes lunch and instruction. ACE provides a van. However, shuttle responsibilities are shared among the group, which allows for a much wider range of paddling options.
