Our free classes include SUP Taster for absolute beginners, SUP Masterclass for those looking to improve their technique and speed, and SUP Yoga to help your relax and stretch.

Our free classes are also open to your friends and family, they can purchase a wristband (£10) to gain water access and classes.
