About Your Coach

I’m Paulo Ouellet—founder of Dancing with the Sea. I’ve spent over 25 years using the Greenland paddle and 20 years helping paddlers unlock its full potential. My method teaches you to move naturally, with power, grace, and stability—so paddling becomes effortless, even in challenging conditions.

“I’m now able to combine different parts of my body. Before I would wear out one part, and then change to another.

Now it’s way more integrated and relaxed, and there is no more shoulder pain”

– Mary Maclean

“My paddling was forced. Now it’s much easier. And I have a lot more confidence in waves.”

– Devi Pasad

“When I first got my new kayak and a Greenland paddle, I felt pretty overwhelmed trying to figure out how to use the paddle properly, especially with the sportier kayak.

Thanks to Paulo’s lessons and programs, I gained a solid foundation for my skills and a boost in confidence on the water. I’m now a much more efficient paddler and feel way more comfortable handling dynamic waters and tricky weather conditions. Paulo’s instructions also made rolling a lot easier.

I’m much more confident on the water and am no longer a fair-weather paddler.

-Asmin Chen

“Following your advice has kept me paddling at 82 with others 15-20 years younger.”

“I absolutely feel more comfortable and confident in my kayak. I feel I have the skills I need to build on to progress even further with some practice.”

-Karen Thibodeau

“I wanted to find out what the Greenland paddle was all about and how it could improve my paddling.

Now I feel more stable in my boat; I can paddle more comfortably and with more ease. 

I have more peace of mind especially with bracing. “

-Delcy McLellan

“I was paddling, on a multi-island adventure, with Sea Kayak Baja Mexico ®, over the Christmas Holiday, in 2018, as a complete beginner.

I saw a Greenland paddle, and insisted upon using it. Well, this choice made me the oddball. Nonetheless, I impressed the two Guides with my ability to (unintentionally) set the pace, whilst never breaking a sweat!

As well, my “bracing” confused the Guides, because I, mostly, didn’t brace, in the normal sense, since, having either Greenland blade in the water, gave me enough purchase, to adjust my balance, before things got out of hand.

On day four, one of the Guides had “had enough”, and she traded paddles with me, in order to satisfy her curiosity! Maria; she seemed to be a bit befuddled, by the way she shot, to the front, with no effort”
