Spring 2023 Paddleboarding London Events
UPCOMING EVENTS
Spring is nearly here and we’ve got lots of great opportunities for you to get out on the water with us.
We’re just over a month away from our weekend away in Amsterdam. This 3-day trip is perfectly positioned to take advantage of the spring-like weather and catch tulip season in full bloom. We’ll be making the most of the urban canals as well as visiting the local city beach. With ample opportunity to tack on extra time before or after our SUP sessions, we have just a FEW spaces left – find out more and book your place here.
Our schedule will expand in April with sessions starting at St Katharine Docks and more days/times available in Camden and Hackney. This year we’re introducing more sessions for non-beginners, or those who have a basic knowledge of paddling. These sessions are an opportunity to be on the water quicker, travel further and also the option to work on specific skills. Look for sessions marked: Speed & Endurance, Skills and our standard Social paddles. See the full schedule here.
Paddle 2 the Pub & Paddle and Prosecco are back! It’s official, social SUPs are back in full swing with our monthly Paddle 2 the Pub kicking off in May. Our first Paddle 2 the Pub is the first Friday in May, which also happens to coincide with the full Flower moon. Book your spot now!
We’ve got a fantastic half-day Skills Clinic coming up with GB Sup Champion Emily King. In this masterclass you will learn how to manage the different stages of your paddle stoke, the tactical paddle strokes and how to improve your efficiency to paddle in different environments. It’s open to all levels – Sunday 26 March 9.30-12.30pm £50 in Camden. Find out more here
Did you see our SUP Yoga class featured in the beautiful book Dock Life renewed – How London’s Docks are thriving again by Niki Gorick? Our club members can take advantage of an exclusive £10 discount and secure a signed copy for orders before 4 April. Drop us a message to find out how to claim yours or order your own copy here.
You may have heard the news that British Canoeing has become the official governing body for Stand Up Paddleboarding. This is great news for the sport and will lead to more continuity of standards for coaching and centres throughout the UK. As official British Canoeing delivery partners, we’re proud to be now offering two of their key SUP courses
British Canoeing Personal Performance Awards – SUP Safer (half-day) and SUP Sheltered Water (full-day). See more about the awards, dates and how to book here.
The wonderful Jo Moseley, author of Stand-Up Paddleboarding in Great Britain will be coming to Stanfords Travel Bookshop in Covent Garden on 19 April to talk about her paddle adventures. Tickets are £5 and include a glass of wine or soft drink. Get your tickets here.
Upskill Your SUP Skills sessions start in April on Tuesday evenings. Open to club and non club members alike, these sessions tackle different skills every two weeks. The first week is a detailed intro and practice time, with week 2 reinforcing the learning and more practice time. It’s possible to attend one without the other but both are recommended to really solidify the skill. Topics include: paddling faster & straighter, moving around the board, mastering turns, race skills and paddle tricks. See the full schedule here.
Our SUP & Social Club spring challenge is the Limehouse Loop – scheduled for Sunday 16 April, we’ll be setting off from Hackney early for a full day of paddling around some of East London’s most iconic areas and the oldest parts of Regent’s Canal. We’re opening up the challenge to club members only to start so if you’re keen, join the club! Memberships start from £1 per year – find out more here.
