What It Is

Let me fill your heart with joy and laughter
Togetherness, well that’s all I’m after
Whenever you need me, I’ll be there – jackson 5

This is what enthusiasm looks like.  This is what it is.  When you show up for class and the weather is foul you simply put on your biggest smile and say, “let’s go!”.  Truth be told, enthusiasm is the only way you’ll ever be a really good kayaker.  If you’re not into it, if you don’t enjoy it so much that you find yourself paddling constantly  regardless of weather, regardless of climate.. you’ll never reach the point where managing your boat becomes second nature.  As we like to say, it’s all about “butt in boat” time. 

Of course, it doesn’t hurt be showing up for your first kayaking class in a brand new Impex Force 4 that you only bought the day before!
