At Mooredale Sailing Club Toronto, we love sharing our passion for sailing. Our enthusiasm is quickly infectious for most new members. We love seeing our students enjoying the thrill of sailing well and fast! For these reasons, we put together a sound teaching program unique to our club. This program includes beginner sailing lessons in Toronto and advanced sailing lessons in Toronto, certified by the Canadian Yachting Association.
Sailing Lessons Our club welcomes his new members by offering them more than 40 hours of sailing lessons conform to the CYA (Canadian Yacht Association) standards and taught by our professional CYA certified instructors. This training, "Learn to Sail" program, will cover safety, seamanship and boat handling in winds to 9 knots velocity and it will give you the sufficient theoretical knowledge and practical experience to obtain the CYA CanSail 1&2 Certificate.
There are four "Learn to Sail" sessions that run throughout the summer:
While you are learning the basics of sailing in a friendly atmosphere, you will get familiar with the club and its members. You will also participate to different introductory programs, which include, an introduction to boat maintenance and repair involving fiberglass work, an introduction to racing which will be run by one of our top racer, and of course a full access to our clubhouse and its social activities. Beyond the Training Once your certificate in hand, which usually takes 4 weeks, you will be able to use our club boats, learn boat specific seamanship, improve your sailing skills by casual sails or more organized training programs run by our members. Other sessions will be organised to improve your skills. (Catamaran, Laser, CanSail 3, Racing...)
