Our private 1:1 Standup Paddleboard (SUP) lessons offer personalised instruction tailored to your specific goals, whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to refine your skills. With a friendly, qualified BSUPA instructor, you’ll receive focused, hands-on coaching that accelerates your progress and ensures you get the most out of your time on the water. This one-to-one setting allows you to build confidence at your own pace while mastering the core techniques of SUPing in a relaxed, supportive environment.
During your private 1:1 lesson, you’ll receive expert instruction covering everything from basic paddleboarding techniques to more advanced manoeuvres, depending on your current ability and goals. The lesson will start with safety and self-rescue techniques, followed by learning to kneel and stand confidently on the board. You’ll also practise essential paddle techniques, flat water paddling, and basic turns, all in the calm, shallow waters of Hove Lagoon. With the extra hour of SUP hire after your lesson, you'll have the perfect opportunity to practise your newfound skills at your own pace.
Whether you're completely new to SUP or want to work on specific skills like turns or balance, the session is tailored to suit your needs.
All 1:1 SUP lessons take place at Hove Lagoon, a sheltered and shallow body of seawater just minutes from Brighton’s seafront. This ideal location offers calm conditions for learning and practising SUP in a safe, controlled environment before progressing to more challenging open-water conditions.
This lesson is designed for everyone, from complete beginners to experienced paddlers. No prerequisites are required, and the lesson will be customised to your skill level. If you are a non-swimmer, please let us know in advance so we can adjust the session to ensure your comfort and safety.
