This session is designed to help you get stronger in a way that directly improves your paddling. We focus on the muscles and movements that matter most for SUP: legs, core, shoulders, and back, as well as balance and stability.
The exercises are simple, effective, and suitable for beginners and intermediate paddlers. Everything we do can be adapted to your level, so you can work at your own pace while still being challenged.
The key aim is to give you tools you can take home. These are exercises you can easily repeat before a SUP session to warm up your body, improve technique, reduce fatigue, and lower the risk of injury.
By building better strength, control, and body awareness on land, you’ll feel more stable, powerful, and efficient on the water.Group Size Max: 8
