Description:
At the core of the ACA Adaptive Program, Adaptive Paddling Workshops (APWs) provide the information necessary to seamlessly integrate individuals with physical disabilities into outdoor recreation programs in the context of paddlesports. ACA Certified Instructors can earn the Adaptive Paddling Endorsement. ACA Instructors can also receive an Update for certification maintenance. This course is also open to non-Instructors, who can earn an ACA Certificate of Completion.
Through American Therapeutic Recreation Association (ATRA), Adaptive Expeditions has been pre-approved to offer Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialists (CTRS) Continuing Education Units for this workshop.
For kayakers with physical disabilities (and those interested in becoming kayakers), the final day of this APW offers a perfect opportunity to learn from experts about how to modify equipment and the techniques to paddle comfortably, safely, and with a high level of performance. 5 spaces remain. Cost is FREE. Everyone must register. Contact: Jason Gosch: jgosch@usf.edu or by phone at (813) 974-6381. Alternatively contact Stefano Alvernia: stefano1@mail.usf.edu
