SUP Intro & Skills

How It Works

Brand new to SUP? Start with Intro. Had a lesson before? Start with Skills. Both are repeatable. Skills ends with a Personal Best Time Trial — four laps, one mile. Your instructor records your time and tells you where you stand.

Once you hit a sub-17 minute mile – hooray! – three things open up for you: Wednesday Tempo, Thursday Velocity, and intermediate river trips. And, keeping coming back to Skills for infinite improvement.

Class Levels

SUP Intro: First Strokes & Balance
(1.5 Hours)

Learn how to carry, launch, stand up safely, steer, turn, stop, and back up. You’ll practice an efficient forward stroke using the Catch, Power, and Return technique. This is a no-pressure environment to get your bearings on the water.

SUP Skills: Advanced Strokes & Turns
(2.5 Hours)

Fine-tune your blade placement and body positioning for an efficient stroke and learn how to engage your core. We cover cross-nose turns, pivot turns, and a time trial to track your personal pace. Repeat this class regularly for fitness, community, and skill maintenance.

Note: Clocking a sub-17 minute mile during our time trial unlocks intermediate river trips and Tempo and Velocity weeknight trainings.

Unlimited SUP Pass

This pass gives you 60 days of unlimited access to SUP Intro, SUP Skills, Rentals, and Trainings. Because our program is built around ongoing practice rather than a one-time checklist, this pass is the most direct cost-effective way to SUP.

Please note that River Trips are not included in the Unlimited Pass.

Essentials & Amenities

We provide all-around paddleboards, paddles, safety leashes, dry bags, and life jackets. Please wear synthetic clothing or athletic swimwear that you don’t mind getting wet. All paddlers have full access to our indoor lockers, secure bike racks, changing rooms, restrooms, and outdoor rinse station.
