SUP Lessons in NYC

Lessons Resume on May 13th 2023. Reserve today!

Learn to use a touring SUP to join intermediate river trips and beyond.

Get the 4 Pack or take lessons a la carte. Lessons go in order: SUP Basics 1, 2, 3, then 4. After 4 lessons, adults qualify to be a member and enjoy intermediate trips.

Each lesson includes vigorous exercise. A fit person can finish 1-2 lessons in one weekend but usually not more. Lessons cannot be rescheduled within 72 hours of the start time.

 

Lesson Plan

SUP Basics 1: Fundamental! Learn to get outfitted and do basic strokes.

SUP Basics 2: Develop board control using torso rotation. 

SUP Basics 3: Refine your steering and learn to self-rescue, a safety essential.

SUP Basics 4: Learn about water safety then paddle out to the waves and wind. 

Private Lessons: Learn alone or with your own mates. This may substitute for any Basics lesson. The 4 Pack does not apply to privates.
