We had such a great experience in the YMCA kayak classes taught by Daren and Kristin! They are incredibly knowledgeable, and we learned so much from them. We also saw big improvements in our technique, skills, and confidence thanks to their coaching and practical tips. Not to mention, we had a ton of fun! Highly recommend taking a class with Silent Wake!

My lesson with Daren of Silent Wake was fantastic! We went over the basics of various paddle strokes (you can never spend too much time reviewing the basics).

This was my first time ever going kayaking, and let me tell you I had an amazing time! Daren and Kristin were super friendly and answered any questions we had. They made sure we had all the proper gear and that we were comfortable in our kayaks. I would highly recommend going on one of their tours! Thanks for making my first time a fun and memorable one.
