SA国际影视传媒淲e usually play kayak polo as well. It's probably the best way to learn actually because you're playing a game, and you're not thinking about paddling, you're just doing it,SA国际影视传媒� he said.
The paddling club hosts the pool sessions every year, as a way to give people a refresher before they head out on lakes and rivers in the spring.
SA国际影视传媒淲e usually start November, December-ish and then go until April. It's the best place to learn kayaking probably because it's warm and safe,SA国际影视传媒� said Hodson.
The sessions are open to anyone who wants to try them.
SA国际影视传媒淲e have a few kids kayaks, we have adult kayaks,SA国际影视传媒� he said. SA国际影视传媒淚t's ten dollars to come out and ten dollars to be a member so it's pretty cheap.SA国际影视传媒�
