Kayak Rolling Instruction - Volcanic Hot Springs
Let the hyperthermic waters of Volcan Michimahuida supercharge your learning process. We have found the perfect location for teaching the kayak roll - protected from cold water and weather. Our hot spring classes go rain or shine, keeping our students in total comfort. The waters are so inviting you will want to be underwater without hesitancy - which is the single most important factor in learning the kayak roll. With these warm tranquil waters and our expert instructors, there will be no time lost. You will learn more in three day sessions than in three years of trying to learn on your own in the river. Better than the swimming pool because the warm waters help in muscle relaxation and recovery. The hot springs of Michimahuida are nestled in a deep valley off of the dormant volcano Michimahuida. Steaming mist, flowering bushes, giant ferns, and native coihue trees, make up a virtual botanic garden surrounding the hot springs...

The last two days of our kayak school are devoted to day-long kayak river trips, where we will put all of the paddling instruction fundamentals together...
