Session Details
With the experiences of the past year, we feel it’s more important than ever to look after our mental well-being and getting outdoors to paddle (in our opinion) is just about the best way to do this. It’s also ideal as a safe socially distanced activity.
This course will incorporate learning to Stand Up Paddleboard in a relaxed environment by a friendly experienced SUP Instructor while being centered around your well-being to help you unwind.
