In these 1.5 hour sessions we will aim to cover:
​
- water safety
- safe launch
- kneeling and standing on the board
- forward and backward paddle technique
- turning techniques
- self rescue
​
Groups will be no more than 6 people unless specifically requested so careful attention can be paid to each participant.
Group bookings of 8 are available on request.
​
​
What's provided: A board, paddle, leash and buoyancy aide will be provided for each participant.
What to wear: In warmer weather a wetsuit isn’t necessary, although you can of course wear it if you have one. Otherwise lightweight, quick-drying sportswear is ideal (no cotton or denim!) or board shorts and rash vest.
Bring a towel and change of clothes.
Shoes – for safety enclosed footwear must be worn. Wetsuit boots or water shoes are ideal, or old trainers that you don’t mind getting wet.
​
Lessons will go ahead if there is light rain. On occasion, we may have to postpone lessons due to strong wind. We will notify you of this as soon as possible.
​
Classes will usually be held on Portishead Marina. Meeting point next to the slip way in front of Parish Wharf leisure centre.
