Private
Many of Liquid Adventures' students rave about our individualized training.  We look forward to working with you to create the customized program that best suits your needs.
 
Private lessons
If you prefer individual attention, just need a refresher or have special needs that are difficult to meet in a group setting, try a private lesson.  We offer the finest quality instruction in all our group lessons, but private and semi-private instruction allows you to get the most from your instructor and to customize the focus of your class.  Just call our office to organize one of the following options to suit your needs and schedule.

  • One-on-one lessons:  Sometimes that one-on-one time is just what you need to experience a real breakthrough in your paddling. Let us know your needs and we'll help you to work on rolling, strokes, balance or whatever it is you need to move your paddling to the next level. Cost: $60/hr with a two hour min.
  • Semi-private lessons:  Maybe you'd just like to organize a private lesson with a few of your friends.  Check out our rates below and contact us to determine the availability of any of our top-quality instructors. Limit two to three people, for groups of four or more please see below.
    Cost: for two people $80/hr or for three people $100/hr with a two hour min.
  • Personal trainer request:  Now you can request to paddle with your favorite instructor for your individual or group lesson. Guarantee a session with the person who knows your needs and skills best! Just ask for him or her by name.
  • Custom guided river trips:  You’ve been eyeing that river for weeks!  A guided run is the secret to a successful first run down a new river – and you can do it with your favorite Liquid Adventures instructor. We'll share our years of experience by letting you know what to expect, what is safe, where the best lines are and what to avoid. Your coach will help you to use your existing skills and to build new skills as you work your way down one of the beautiful nearby rivers. Rates vary by river.

Group lessons, parties and corporate outings  
Sharing the experience of the river in a kayak offers a unique opportunity to get to know colleagues and to bond with friends. It's a kind of fun that you as a group can have together, and by the time the day is over, you will find many new experiences to talk about.  We can help you organize an event on the river, and we will tailor a class to suit your needs as long as there is a minimum of four in the group.

The sport of kayaking is all about learning new skills, personal growth, and majestically beautiful environments. It is both excitement and inner reflection in a non-traditional atmosphere.

The Potomac: Young professionals considering work in a given location usually have ' Lifestyle' high on their list of priorities. Surprisingly, Washington, DC is itself a destination for outdoors enthusiasts, with rock climbing and above all kayaking opportunities abundantly available close to the city. Most people living outside of the DC area are unaware of the sudden tranquility of the environment just a few miles out of town. Washington, DC is home to one of the nation's strongest river kayaking and canoeing communities.

For youth: We've been teaching youth to paddle for years. Young persons find the rapids on the Potomac exhilarating and a great spot to hold a party. Don't hesitate to call us about birthday parties on the river and school outings.  We are experts in safety and are experienced in introducing kids to both the fun and the responsibility of being outdoors.

Cost: $70/person for a 3.5 hr lesson. If you organize a group of 5-7 people including yourself, you get 50% off the lesson or if you organize a group of 8 or more total, you get the lesson for free!

Please call us at (301) 229 0428 to talk about options.
