This class is offered at our N. Portland store location.

The 3 Star Assessment is primarily the application of variety of strokes in a flat water environment with the primary goal to be the efficient use of an appropriate stroke or maneuver.  Basics rescues are also involved.  Ownership of these skills in a flat water environment makes the transition to a dynamic environment relatively seamless. 

The BCU 3 Star Assessment will be scheduled periodically throughout the year. Call to reserve your spot in the next class.
