My partner and I just completed the Adult Double Handed - Beginner Course on the International 420 Dinghy, and it was fantastic. Nathan Glendinning, our amazing coach gave us super helpful instructions and comments throughout, both on and off the water. We're looking forward to earning our next CANSail level! Thanks for a memorable week at Calgary Yacht Club, Nathan!

My wife and I just completed the Adult Double Handed - Intermediate/Advanced Course on the 420 sailboats. We had a great time and enjoyed the whole experience. Our instructor Nathan was awesome. For such a young man, he displayed poise and maturity beyond his years. He confidently taught us the basics on the whiteboard, then followed up on the water with timely suggestions for improving our techniques. Nathan aspires to become a teacher and I'd say, judging by his success at teaching adults show to sail, he has a bright future ahead of him. Thanks Nathan and good luck at U.Vic!

Just completed the Adult Learn to Sail Beginner Course on Club 420. What a fantastic experience. Chaz Peddlesden Coach/Instructor made this experience a success. He's a Competitive International and Global Sailor that really knows his stuff. His teachings cater to all learning styles which provide a positive outcome. The Calgary Yacht Club is a great place that brings like minded people together. It's a great sense of community. Looking forward to taking more classes. Thanks Chaz!
