Private SUP Progression Lessons

What to Expect

Whether you’re joining me from a beginner lesson, you’re self taught or have had a lesson elsewhere these sessions are tailored around you and designed to help progress your paddle boarding skills. This 90 minute progression lesson focuses on building your SUP knowledge, technique and confidence on the water.  Learn more advanced paddle technique to improve performance, avoid injury and conserve energy. Understand more about the weather, different waterways and adjusting your paddling technique based on the conditions. Build your all-round water confidence and learn how to plan for your own paddle boarding adventures to ensure safety and maximum enjoyment.

SUP Locations

My base is Lancing Beach where I teach either along the coast, heading either West to Worthing or East to Shoreham or on the River Adur launching near Shoreham. That said, I’m fully mobile and can offer private SUP beginner lessons on various lagoons, lakes, reservoirs, rivers and coastal waters across Sussex and beyond (up to 90 min drive from Lancing).

SUP Season Dates

To ensure the safety of my clients, my beginner SUP lessons generally take place from mid April to October. This can vary depending on the weather at the time and sometimes I can run lessons in March and November. However, for safety reasons I will never offer beginner lessons between December and February when the water and air temperatures are cold enough that hypothermia becomes a very real risk.
