The Heliconia Press is led by Ken Whiting, World Champion kayaker, five-time National Champion, and one of the most influential paddlers in the world. For over fourteen years, Ken has shared his enthusiasm for paddling through his teaching and production of best-selling, award-winning instructional books and DVDs. In recognition of his accomplishments and contributions, Paddler Magazine named Ken one of their "Paddlers of the Century".
Working alongside Ken is a dedicated and talented team, which includes two other World Champion kayakers (Brendan Mark and Nicole Whiting).
Since Ken founded the company in 1998, The Heliconia Press has grown from self-publishing one best-selling book to being an outdoor industry leader with over 50 titles and winner of many awards. Heliconia's books and DVDs can now be found in well over 1500 outdoor stores throughout North America and are sold by 25 distributors world-wide. Look for Heliconia books showcased at the front of Chapters/Indigo stores across Canada.
With warehouses in both New York and Ontario, Heliconia is able to serve Canadian and US markets.
The success of The Heliconia Press is due in large part to the winning team they have assembled, their commitment to Publishing with Impact and the approachable, professional style of business they run.
