Learn to Paddle

If you’re new to paddling the Burley Griffin Canoe Club holds several 'A Taste of Paddling' sessions, for non-members who would like to try it out. Bookings are essential and sessions cost $120pp.   Contact Patricia for more information.

See Coaching for full details.

Participants will be able to try out a variety of boats, learn about equipment, boat handling, entry and exit techniques, basic paddling techniques and basic capsize procedures. Participants are expected to be able to swim 50m. The sessions are held on the Molonglo River in calm conditions close to shore.

There are no further sessions for this summer.  Please watch for dates from October 2023.
