Looking to paddle while spending time in Pennsylvania? Then look no further than Riversport School of Paddling! Perfect Paddles recommends taking a beginner lesson before trying to stand up on a SUP on the river!
We take a combination of having an excellent location with great rivers and take an excellent kayaking staff of diverse instructors.
When you add the kids into the mix you get a great week of fun progressive instruction based learning. Our staff includes a pro paddler from Team IR US, PSIA certified ski instructors, National Ski Patrol members, College professors, to ACA Level 4 Certified Instructor. Most of our Beginner students go from Class I to Class III and master the Lower Yough and rolling. Our advanced group will learn new playboating moves, technical river running techniques, like “the boof”, and how to run class IV. Also, during the week, students are able to check out the new sport of Stand Up Paddle Boarding. We hop on boards at the Yough Lake during our evening cook out, and then take it down the river through class II rapids. Then work on River Rescue Skills. Each session we paddle at the Adventure Sports Center Institute, Yough River, Cheat Narrows, Valley Falls, or Cassleman Rivers. Basically where ever the water levels take us.
Our program’s main focus is to build confidence and skills in younger paddlers while providing a safe learning environment. Each day we take our students through a progression that allows river running techniques, self-rescue, river rescue, playboating, and creek boating skills. Our week begins on the Yough Lake above our river store location. From here we divide groups into appropriate levels of abilities to begin a great week of building skills and confidence in the water.
