Welcome to Body Boat Blade International
Our mission is to share with you the possibilities!
Body Boat Blade International is owned and operated by two of the most qualified,
dedicated, and passionate instructors in the Pacific Northwest. We want to share
our knowledge, skill, and our love of paddling and the sea with you. We specialize
in high quality instruction for paddlers at any skill level. Our certified instructors
are committed to upholding the highest standards of coaching, leadership, and judgment
in every program that we offer. To round out your learning experience, we offer year-round
courses taught by world-renowned guest coaches.
Our home is Orcas Island Washington, a beautiful small island located in the San Juan
Archipelago. We offer classes and trips in some of the best paddling destinations that exist.
The San Juan Islands offer protected bays and lakes for beginners, tidal races, over falls, and
complex navigation for the more advanced paddler. The nearby rugged Washington and British Columbia
coasts offer excellent opportunities for our surf, white-water and expedition courses. We believe
that kayaking is all about having fun. By increasing your skills you greatly increase the fun,
excitement, and opportunities you have as a paddler.
Our year-round courses range in length from three hours to five-day kayak camps. Our progressive
curriculum includes fundamental skills training, surfing, rough water and tidal race paddling,
leadership and guide training, British Canoe Union (BCU) training and assessments, video stroke
analysis, navigation, expeditioning, white-water, and private instruction.
We are committed to using high quality boats, paddles and paddling equipment in all of our courses.
This equipment is included in the course fee of all programs based on Orcas Island.
Body Boat Blade International is a Nordkapp Trust Expedition Centre, a member of the
Trade Association of Paddle sports (TAPS)
and all of our coaches are BCU certified.
We invite you to come join us for an unforgettable learning experience!
The Ocean is our playground!
