Whether you dream of being a guide, or are a longtime guide looking for professional recognition or deeper development, or simply enjoy taking less-experienced friends and family out to paddle, we’re excited to help you achieve your goals.
Why train with SKBM? You’re training as a leader with people who lead for a living. Share the contagious inspiration of our guide-coaches who are passionate about their lifestyle and deeply fulfilled by enriching people’s lives.

Skilled sea paddlers gain experience for fluid decision-making in the context of an actual trip. This is also where we run Sea Leader assessments and Guide Endorsement assessments.
