Beginner Kayak Roll Lessons in Richmond, VA
This kayaking roll class is great for beginners who are looking to be introduced to the wonderful sport of whitewater kayaking as well as intermediates looking for roll instruction. If you have never been in a whitewater kayak we would recommend signing up for our two day intro course in order to better understand how these boats operate before you try rolling. However, you may also jump right into rolling if you so please, just be aware it is considered an intermediate skill!
During the colder months we we be hosting Pool Practice Sessions and Instructional Roll Clinics at Bellemeade Community Center on Lynhaven Ave in Richmond, Virginia. Upcoming dates are October 25th, November 8th, 22nd, December 6th, 13th & January 10th, 24th. Sessions will be from 6:00 PM – 7:45 PM. We ask that all participants are out of the building by 8:00 PM so that the lifeguards can go home.
-
Towel, hat, sunglasses, camera, swimwear, change of clothes, river footwear, sunscreen, water bottle. If you have your own kayak you are learning to use, we encourage you to bring that.
For winter/indoor sessions: Towel, swimwear, change of clothes, water bottle. If you have your own kayak you are learning to use, we encourage you to bring it. All personal boats must have float bags removed and be completely rinsed out before entering the pool. Please be mindful that future pool use hinges on us not leaving debris, leaves, and sediment in the pool for the guards to clean.

Please park in the lot near the community center. We will be using the back entrance down the hill from the dumpster next to the air handler for the building. We ask that you walk your boat down this road and not pull down or park on this road as it leads to issues with blocking people in.
