Taking part in our SUP Skills and Safety Update Session will guarantee your success and enjoyment of Stand-Up Paddle boarding in a range of types of water across multiple disciplines. Safety is one of the key elements that every paddleboarder should know and we introduce the key safety elements while paddling.

Our instructors will fill you with confidence as you learn the fundamental skills that will keep you safe and enable you to develop into a truly skilful and responsible paddler.

Throughout our lessons we believe in a safety-first approach to instructing, and through all our procedures and teaching practices this is the primary focus for you, our instructors and other river users. We pride ourselves in ensuring the best possible environment to learn all there is about SUP.

If you can swim it's a bonus but we are able to run sessions for non swimmers on one2one basis and will require the use of a PFD, which we will provide.

What should I bring for a session?

We always recommend quick drying clothes during the session or a wetsuit if the water is cooler.

We would recommend having a change of clothing and a towel in your car to keep you warm after your session.

Your feet are the only part of your body that will have constant contact with the water, but boards have good grip so bare feet or some water shoes will be fine.

Please bring bottled water and may be a snack for after your lesson

Sunglasses are advisable (ideally with safety retainers to hold in place when in the water), and on hot days you should have some sunscreen on, as you always burn faster on the water.

Other than that, just bring yourself and your enthusiasm. You’re going to have fun out there 😎
