 ost likely venues - Fontana Lake and Tuckaseegee River\n\nBeginner clinics
  are targeted at those who have little or no experience paddling whitewat
 er or are starting over again with a new type of craft (i.e. switching fro
 m kayaking to canoeing).  Beginner clinics cover the very basics of kayak
 ing.  The first day is generally spent covering equipment\, outfitting\, 
 safety precautions\, and river features on dry land\, and then spending ti
 me on a lake with the instructor introducing the proper stroke techniques 
 on flat/non-moving water.  This venue allows the student to concentrate o
 n the strokes and not the water. The second day of the beginner clinic is 
 held on a class I-II white water river\, to ease the students into moving 
 white water and emphasis is placed on technique and becoming comfortable o
 n the river in one’s boat.  The typical beginner clinic student has no 
 experience or is not yet comfortable on rivers like the Lower Green\, Uppe
 r or Middle Haw\, or Tuck Gorge.\n\nFor other clinic descriptions - https:
