Yes. SUP Active Yorkshire's skills and drills sessions at Catterick Pool have winter dates. Surf lessons and social paddles have no dates on eola yet, so check each activity page. Yoga with Love Abode Yoga shows on eola when it adds new dates.

Group surf lessons are for ages 8 and over, and surfers must be able to swim 50 metres in a swimming pool. The Junior Surf Academy doesn't state a minimum age, so check the activity page. SUP skills sessions aren't for complete beginners: you should be able to stand up on a board, swim and be confident in the water.

For surfing, come in a swimming costume or shorts and bring a towel, warm clothes, sun cream and any medication such as an inhaler or EpiPen; without essential medication you can't go in the sea. For the Junior Surf Academy, also pack a lunch. For SUP Active Yorkshire, bring paddling clothes for the season, a water bottle and any medication; buoyancy aids must be worn.
