A three to four day program held on the River Ganga around Rishikesh
to introduce white water kayaking in a safe and fun way.
The beginner's course is organized as a multiday expedition down
the easier bits of the Ganga along with some wilderness camping
along the way, or out of Rishikesh with students staying at a
guest house.
The first day is all about familiarization with kayaking gear,
basic strokes and understanding the basic dynamics of a mountain
river and a serious introduction to simple safety procedures.
The next few days one learns basic maneuvers in swift water and
seeing and understanding Hydrodynamics. Also one starts to understand
and begins to work on learning the art of the Eskimo Roll.
