Each week we will have a progressive program where we start with some foundation technique and drills and progresses to possibly some fitness paddling. We also do sessions also at Ellerton lake which include sprints, technical races, and 3 km or 5 km time trails. Areas of training that we will cover include equipment, race formats, efficient paddling, race turns, board control and handling, mass starts, and drafting so look out for them. On some weeks we venture onto local slow moving rivers or canals to do some longer-distance paddles between 5 -10km on weekday evening.
This is a great way to improve SUP fitness or cross-train for other sports. Most of all we are about encouraging each other with inclusive fun sessions aimed at promoting getting out in our blue spaces also setting some personal SUP goals in a supportive environment.
The central component of paddle boarding is simply to have fun. Most of the people who attend training and fitness sessions enjoy being able to spend a day with people who are just as excited about SUP as they are!
And we sometimes manage a social afterwards 🍹
Ready, Set, Paddle! :)
