1. What's included
in class?
Still only $ 125.00 per paddler you
get one of the most broad learning environments in the North
Texas area, by offering instruction in every type of kayak,
singles and doubles, whitewater, recreational, light and
full touring, inflatable, and sit on top kayaks. We also
have high-end accessories and some entry level equipment
for your evaluation. All kayaks and related safety and convenience
gear is included in your class fee. Hey we even give you
something to drink during class! Our success is based on
attending to your personal needs and requirements for your
future paddling plans. Be customize almost every class to
the needs of each student to make sure you not only see
and her the necessary skills, but at the end of the day
you also own them!
2. How do I register?
Simple, complete the registration documents and mail them
along with a completed waiver to the KPC address. We’ll
follow up with class instruction via email or telephone!
Pressed for time or just forget to register early, no worries,
show up at class with your fee, we’ll complete all your
paperwork on site!
3. How do I pay
for class?
We accept cash, and checks at this
time. We continue to upgrade our website and are looking
at accepting credit card with the additional standard fee
for credit, about 3%. We have never increased our intro2kayaking
class price from 2000, and we continue to give all our students
the very best value for the money in any kayak instruction
class in Texas!
4. Where is class?
We move our classes around in order to make paddling more
convenient to a larger segment of the population. Some of
the place we have had class in this year are White Rock
Lake, Grapevine Lake, Lake Lewisville, Lake Julie, Lake
Lavon, Lake Joe Pool, to mention some. Along with the lakes
we also get on the river like the San Marcos River, The
Brazos River, the Trinity River and Denton Creek, We have
also been out of state (Alabama) and in September will go
out of country. Ok to Canada, Vancouver Island, but not
to far from the good old USA!
5. Is there an age
limit?
We’ll yes and no. Paddling and learning
to paddle can be a physical and outdoor activity. Individuals
should know their bodies and understand their limits. We
have specialized class for kids under 13 years of age (Kayak
Kamp) and we have had success with people well past the
upper 60’s! We work hard to match our instruction to your
needs and desires.
6. What happens
if I can’t stay and finish class?
No problem,
we have something that really makes KPC unique, in that
once you pay for the intro2kayaking class you can return
as often as your like. Some people return to complete the
class, some return to try out the new gear, and some are
still trying different kayaks before the jump into buying
their own boat. Whatever the reason we encourage our students
to return to keep their skill sharp and keep their skills
updated!
7. Tell me more
about the money back guarantee.
This is simple
if you feel that the value of instruction was not on the
level with your class fee we will gladly refund your money,
period.
8. Do you have different
types of kayaks?
O’ Yes, this is what makes
KPC special, we have almost every type of kayak for you
to try during class, were not limited to just one type or
brand. We are constantly upgrading our fleet of kayaks to
bring you the newest and in some cases the classic for you
to paddle! We have several types of different gear for the
kayaks too, including safety and rescue, convenience, and
of course fashion! LOL!!
9. Do you offer
private lessons?
Yes, in fact we can meet you
at your preferred location or at ours, we can have an individual,
or family private lesson or a Team building class for your
business. We also support various not for profit events,
at risk, and special needs kids programs, and corporate
equipment (not on the water) support.
10. How do I continue
to paddle with KPC for free?
There are a couple
of ways to paddle for free. First you can join us again
for the intro2kayaking class, we also support the FTLOTL
group with a second Saturday cleanup, and this is every
second Saturday of every month. We also have a cleanup in
Coppell you can join us at. We also work with some local
adventure race clubs and help them provide water support
on race days, so you have several options to continue your
paddling at no cost.
11. Can I buy
kayaks and equipment from KPC?
The short answer…..
Yes and No. We work with several premier retailers in the
North Texas area, of these most carry a complete selection
of paddling related products. Most of the retailers have
a significant advantage in buying power over KPC. We recommend
that you shop at these stores. We do understand that you
might have a need for a unique or hard to find product that
you can’t find at a local retailer, this is the niche we
can fill for your product needs.
