Stand-Up Paddling Classes

Learn How To Paddle Board, Then Sprint, Surf and Dance on Water!

To join our regular community and get a super cardio workout on the water, use a paddle board. Learn outfitting, launching, landing and basic strokes. Discover how to connect your whole body with the water, which brings instant glee. Standing on the board means you can move around, learn to surf waves on the Hudson River and sprint with a group of like-minded SUPers into the evening in NYC.

Graduates of Basics 3 qualify for Intermediate Tours and Trainings and Memberships.
