MICROADVENTURE PADDLE & HIKE

May & August 2023

With a river decent on Day 1 and a woodland wander & workshop on Day 2 this weekend adventure for 6 comprised of a day building paddling skills an overnight bivy and a day of exploring Bluebell woods and learning the art of 'falling again'

"I learnt more paddle techniques than I was expecting - very happy with that. Great to try a different kayak too. Enjoyed the skills sections spread out across the paddle. The pace and time on the water was good for the group as a whole. I like going a bit faster and further and I like to get into the rhythm of it that way. But then again, it gave me the opportunity to practice different techniques more while "waiting up" or adjusting to the group pace. It was also great to learn more about river/wind conditions and considerations for the journey.

Always great to learn more about the forest - in terms of geography, history and the management of it." - Dagmar

LIQUID LOGISTICS

2021 -2023

Starting as a customer it was a privilege to find myself not just guiding & coaching but collaborating on the development of this business through 2021 into 2022.  With it's all time best performance across all KPIs, through 2021 and systems in place, the reins were handed back over through the 2022 season.

I'm looking forward to freelancing with these guys through 2023.  Check out the reviews on Trip Advisor to see how we did!

"Leander is a fantastic and experienced instructor. I had a great kayaking session with her, where we focused on exactly what I wanted to learn/gain confidence in for an upcoming Antarctica kayaking trip. Leander kept the learning fun and engaging, I was enjoying myself so much the lessons went in really easily. When there were aspects I struggled with more Leander easily adapted her approach and found other ways to teach me. Whether you have specific goals in mind or just want a fun paddle I would really recommend Leander as a instructor/guide" - Amy Oct 22 Private Coaching
