My nickname is Cie, pronounced “C” or “sea”, and I teach flat water and coastal kayaking (as opposed to whitewater river kayaking) to individuals and groups. 2025 is my 10th year as an instructor. I am an American Canoe Association (ACA)-certified Level 3 Coastal Kayaking Instructor, Level 3 Coastal Kayaking Trip Leader, an ACA-endorsed Instructor in Kayak Rolling, and am certified by the American
Red Cross in Adult First Aid/CPR/AED. If you want to receive notices of upcoming classes, both “Like” and “Follow” this page. After taking a class, please remain a “Like” so that you can find the page, but certainly feel free to “Unfollow” it in your News Feed or turn the Notifications “All Off.”
