White Water Learning Center of Georgia
Our Mission:
White Water Learning Center of Georgia's mission is to provide opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts to learn river paddling skills in a safe and structured environment with the top professional whitewater instructors in Georgia at a reasonable cost. We are dedicated to meeting the individual needs of students, promoting river safety, and increasing environmental awareness.
Our Classes
Basic River Kayak and Canoe Classes
White Water Learning Center of Georgia offers one-day basic river kayak and basic river canoe classes on the Chattahoochee River in Atlanta. These are introductory classes in which we teach basic skills needed to become a competent recreational paddler on lakes and easy rivers. Classes are taught by experienced American Canoe Association-certified instructors.
Whitewater Kayak Classes
We offer two-day whitewater kayak classes every other weekend from mid-April through mid-October. These classes are aimed at beginners with no experience and novices who want to work on stroke technique, rolls and river running skills. By the end of the class, you will have the skills to paddle rivers with class II rapids and will be eligible to participate in our Guided River Trip program. Classes are taught by experienced American Canoe Association-certified instructors. We believe in giving individualized attention and our classes are usually small. If more than five people are registered there will be two instructors. Minimum class size is three.
Private Kayak and Canoe Instruction
One-day private kayak and canoe instruction is available at the beginning through intermediate levels and can be tailored to meet your specific learning objectives and personal schedule. Lessons can be scheduled on weekdays or weekends. (With one to four athletic persons, we can cover in one day most of what we teach in a group weekend class.) We can also arrange private multi-day clinics for self-organized groups of three or more, including scout troops, friends, family and co-workers.
Why Learn From Us?
White Water Learning Center of Georgia’s instructors are experienced whitewater enthusiasts who love to teach. They have been chosen to participate in WWLC’s teaching program because they want to create a quality experience for those eager to learn or improve paddling skills. Although we have access to excellent teaching sites, the Center is a concept, not a place. Its purpose is to bring together those desiring to learn river skills in a safe and structured environment with the top professional ACA-certified instructors in Georgia-- instructors who are dedicated to meeting the individual needs of students, promoting river safety and increasing environmental awareness.
