What You'll Learn

We'll start with the basics.

You'll learn how to handle your equipment, get onto the board, find a comfortable position and understand how your movements affect the paddle board.

From there, we'll work through basic paddling, stopping, turning, board control and getting comfortable transitioning from kneeling to standing.

We'll also cover important safety fundamentals before spending more time on the water.

The goal isn't to turn you into a professional paddle boarder in an hour.

It's to give you the knowledge and confidence to start paddling.

Designed for Complete Beginners

If you've been avoiding paddle boarding because you're worried about balance, falling or simply not knowing what you're doing, this class was designed for you.

There is no expectation that you'll immediately stand up.

Start on your knees.

Take your time.

Stand when you're comfortable.

Everyone progresses differently.
