Join SWR instructors Karyna Todd and Laura Kurup for 2 days of hands-on Swiftwater Rescue training on the Potomac River near Washington, DC! You’ll train most essential rescue skills: wading techniques for moving water, using throw ropes, boat-based rescue, and more. Together, we’ll experience the river in new ways, practice common rescue scenarios, and build confidence. Whether you want to refresh your skills or are taking rescue for the first time, you’ll walk away empowered to be the paddler who can help when something unexpected happens on the water.
This course is open to all women, trans, and non-binary paddlers. Inclusion is at the heart of Paddlesport Institute; we believe that everyone deserves to feel strong, safe, and completely at home on the river. Affinity spaces, like this course, can deepen learning, elevate new perspectives, and strengthen community.
