Paddling knowledge is relatively limited in my neck of the woods. Anyone out there know of any good paddling clinics coming up in the next few months? (dragon boat preferred, but outrigger OK)

Waters Edge and/or Right Angle Performance(Kamini http://www.rightangleperformance.com) will come to you and do clinics if you have enough people interested. I know BAD in SF has had them come to them to do clinics. May be more cost effective. You could also probably talk Ryan Pogue into going down and doing a clinic for your team as well. Lots of options |

Given you're in SoCal - the Water's Edge clinic in Arizona might be a good option.
I've done it - it's a great jumpstart to the season.

Don't you guys have HPC already? |

Yup, we have HPC but that is more for the fitness side of things.

Ah I see. If you guys can afford it, the Hawaii camps looks like a lot of fun (and educational)
I'm sure it'd also be very helpful if you receive instructions from Kamini, to get a chance to learn the FCRCC's technique lol

Kam holds small boat sessions in OC1's. I had one today and I found it quite helpful. She mentions the things to do differently on dragonboat, and techniques specific to OC. She's great on detail. I'm not sure if it's much help, considering it's 5 sessions spread out once a week. But local people might like it!

I don't think you can sign up for that anymore though ya the spots fill up quite quickly, for good reason too. Hopefully she'll hold more clinics in the future. |

The OC1 sessions you guys are talking about are part of FCRCC's "small boats" clinics. You have to be a club member to sign up for one. The ones coached by Kamini are for advanced paddlers with a fair amount of OC1 experience.

Sorry - I didn't know it was only for FCRCC members. I thought it was open to anyone.  |
