Adult and children lesson.

This is a fantastic opportunity for anyone to learn all they need to know to become a more confident paddler along with your children or learn from scratch if you have never done it before and just wanted to give it a go.

Children over the age of 8 can come along with an appropriate adult to attend these lessons. There will be a basic level of instruction and knowledge but also a bit more time having fun on the boards compared to the full lessons for adults only which are aimed at getting as much knowledge as possible in that 2 hours.

This is a small intimate group of just 4 participants so each person gets a more enriched experience for beginners.

This will include use of a board and buoyancy aid or you can bring your own if you have one no problem and full tuition for two hours.

Now that we are into June the water is warming up lovely but you may still need a wetsuit if you are a cold person in general. You can use your own or you can hire one from the water sports center at the venue for an additional cost. These don't come as a part of the package.

This also includes the costs of using the reservoir itself and insurance.

We do want to make sure we teach you how to self rescue if you fall in as falling in is all a part of the fun, if the weather and water is really cold we will do this at the end of the lesson (unless you fall in during it ;-) ) instead of at the start.

Due to the wind being a large part of being able to paddleboard well some beginners sessions maybe postponed at the last minute or on the day at the venue but we will try and give as much notice as possible and will happily re book for another day. We want you to enjoy your experience.

Children must have a parent or adult on the lesson with them.

A sense of fun

During April and May You will need a wetsuit or hire one at the centre, this can be done on the day. Footwear for in the water and on the board which will keep your feet warm if possible.

June on wards wetsuits are up to you.

Bring a hot/cold drink that you can take out on the board as we will have a break to relax during the lesson.

Sunscreen is hugely important on those rare hot days ;-)

Don't forget your smile and sense of fun ;-)

There will be a period of time doing land based learning before we will be on the water.
