2023 CALENDAR
Check out our list of course offerings from our base on Peaks Island, including some special weekend classes with guest coaches.
CUSTOM COURSES
Custom means designed for you, your goals and chosen environment. Four students is our preferred number for our lead coaches, as it allows for deeper modeling and increased group responsibility. Talk to us about scheduling a one day lesson or a multi-day course.
DEMO CLASS
Learn about the importance of kayak fit, and how it relates to performance, as you try different Nigel Dennis Kayak models. You'll come away with suggestions and exercises to bring your paddling to the next level, as well as an appreciation of how our Nigel Dennis Kayaks handle in conditions.
REGISTRATION
Signing up for a course with MIKCo involves more than just entering your payment info. We like to know about your experience and goals, to make sure our offerings are right for you - and to create new opportunities as needed. We believe that this personal communication makes a better experience for everyone.
ONLINE SEA KAYAKING
MIKCo highly recommends this online coaching website over 30 hours of structured online courses. High quality video lessons using drone, slow motion and underwater filming enhance the coaches clear demonstrations and explanation of skills.
WHY MIKCo?
Our Registered Maine Guides and British Canoeing and American Canoe Association (ACA) trained coaches and instructors have paddled thousands of miles on various seas over the last 30+ years, and have helped hundreds get out on the water. We believe our progressive formats will tune you into this great sport: taking you beyond simple rescues and basic maneuvering to making rewarding decisions, and enabling you to achieve your goals in the ever-changing environment.
