To the true Kayaker, the kayak becomes an extension of their body, to take on rapids with the fluid grace akin to flowing water is a skill many of us aspire to. If you have ever sat in a raft and watched kayakers, you might yearn for their freedom, so why not learn to kayak yourself? And, Nepal, wow what more can we say than this is perhaps the most amazing place on earth to learn, with a selection of rivers perfect for novices and professional, breathtaking scenery and warm, friendly instructors on hand.

KAYAK CLINICS

It is without question that a kayak is the ultimate river craft. A kayak isn’t something you sit in and paddle; it is something you wear while you are dancing in the water.Kayaking is an encapsulation of life. It is a completely engrossing activity which allows no latitude for inattention. When you kayak, that’s all you do. From the moment you pull your spray skirt tight around the cockpit until you carry your boat up from the river, the rest of your life ceases to exist. A person who can learn to kayak well is a person who has learned to concentrate unerringly. Teaching yourself to kayak is akin to teaching yourself sex...at the very best you’ll just pick up horrendous techniques which will yield very little satisfaction and have to be re-learned later. At the very worst you’ll hurt yourself. We highly recommend an instructor. Our instructors are exceptionally talented kayakers, but more importantly, they are professional teachers and welcome the opportunity to share their love and knowledge of river running with others.This introductory kayaking course is designed for those with little or no previous kayaking experience. Throughout this clinic you will learn all the basic kayaking skills including paddle strokes, eskimo rolls, rescues and the art of reading whitewater, and river safety. Our emphasis first and foremost is safety but not forgetting the joys of a more intimate relationship with the magical Himalayan White Waters
