We focus on ability not disability

Abilities in Motion provides specialized kayak programs for all ages and abilities:

• People with disabilities
• People with special needs
• Seniors

The benefits of kayaking for physically or developmentally disabled people are the same as for everyone else - fresh air, exercise, relaxation, appreciation of the flora, fauna, and the music of the paddle.

There is an emphasis on safety in all areas of this sport; instructors are qualified and the ratio of paddlers to instructor is kept low, sometimes 1:1 if necessary.

Abilities in Motion also supports integrating sports with other recreational activities, opportunities for adaptive recreation are increasing, but slowly.
