Imagine This!
Your group meets at the Harbourfront Canoe and Kayak
Centre facilities to be met by our friendly staff and
shown into your fleet of kayaks. Your kayak instructor
goes over some basic paddle techniques to help
facilitate the journey, then you are lead by the
instructor through the inner harbour of Toronto towards
our destination on the majestic Toronto Islands.
The Incredible Island Race Challenge!
(the ultimate team building activity)
Goal: The Incredible Island Race – teams follow a map
and/or use GPS to travel by Voyageur canoe to special
locations on the Toronto Islands where they must
complete physical and mental tasks as they try to be the
first group to complete the course before the other
teams. The winning team is decided based on a
combination of total travel time and a points system
designated for each of the tasks completed along the
way.
After the race, the event can end off with a BBQ
provided either on the Toronto Islands or back at the
Harbourfront Canoe and Kayak Centre, in which they can
relax and socialize.
Approximate duration of race – 3 hour
Survivor Challenge
Goal: Travel via Voyageur canoe out to a location on the
Toronto Islands where teams will find materials to build
a raft, which must be able to transport your entire team
around a course, then solve a puzzle on the beach before
the other team(s). After the race, the event can end off
with a BBQ provided either on the Toronto Islands or
back at the Harbourfront Canoe and Kayak Centre, in
which they can relax and socialize.
Approximate duration of challenge– 2 hours

Workshops and island paddling:
Picture your group meeting down on the waterfront,
traveling to a location on the Toronto Islands where
they meet up with an inspirational speaker, James
Crookston of Lifeset.ca. After experiencing one of his
many workshops ranging in duration of 1 hour to a full
day, they paddle back to enjoy a BBQ at the Harbourfront
Canoe and Kayak Centre. Remove your peers from the busy
city and return them with a fresh outlook, new
strategies and more motivated to achieve!
Please read an introduction from our friend James
Crookston of Lifeset.ca:
Greetings! I’m James Crookston, founder of Lifeset.ca.
The company was created to provide timely and effective
strategic solutions to identified personal and
professional developmental needs.
I've found that, with ongoing rapid change constantly
destabilizing and altering established pathways to
success, there was a need for a process – PRO/SPER™ - to
help both individuals and businesses clarify:
• directional focus
• purposeful objectives
• relevant pathways to achievement.
Lifesetting’s® powerful PRO/SPER™ process is designed to
provide directional clarity by beginning with the end in
mind. The process helps clients enjoy more success in
both personal and professional contexts by creating
realistic strategies that effectively help them achieve
desired end-results.
Today, there are enough personal and professional
challenges bombarding us from all directions. How can I
help your group achieve more positive results with less
frustration and in less time?
Contact us at james@paddletoronto.com for a list of up
to 20 possible workshops and seminars.

Kayak
Exercise Classes
Description:
Kayak Exercise is an activity that offers anyone with
interest the opportunity to combine a fantastic work out
with simple to advanced kayaking techniques. Start your
day with an invigorating 1.5hr class!
Our schedule is designed to provide you with the
opportunity to have a morning work-out and then leave
you with enough time to refresh before heading off to
work.
Introductory Skills Building Class:
Due to the “paddle friendly” design of our
kayak-exercise boats, you do not need to be proficient
in kayaking to participate. We do however, require that
you take an introductory skills building class which
will introduce you to the skills used, the course
structure and provide you with a feel of what
kayak-exercise is all about.
