I was unimpressed. The 2 hour "class" consisted of 2 minutes of very basic and kind of a "duh" explanation (this is how you hold the paddle. You start on your knees and then stand up when you feel comfortable) and the rest was a very slow paddle upriver, a little break and with the river stream return to the dock. Massively overpriced. Last year it was $30, this year its $43 per person. It wasn't a horrible way to spend the afternoon but I won't be back.
