PADDLE SURF classes in Arguineguín, Gran Canaria.
“Learn from scratch the basic concepts regarding equipment, safety, and technique so you can stand up and acquire proper paddling skills.”
And if you think you don't have the balance for it, don't worry, because the inflatable boards I use are very stable and will make it easier for you to find your balance.
You only need to focus on enjoying yourself!
What is PADDLE SURF?
PADDLE SURF, also known as SUP (Stand Up Paddle), is an exciting sport
that combines muscle activation with relaxation and meditation.
And it’s not because you’ll be sitting cross-legged with your eyes closed, but because you’ll be so focused on every movement you make that, without realizing it, you’ll be practicing mindfulness and enjoying all its benefits.
Although it’s a sport with a quick learning curve, it’s advisable to learn it from a
professional to continue practicing it safely.
This class doesn’t require any prior knowledge or special physical fitness, which means almost anyone can practice it, regardless of age.

- Improves strength, endurance, and balance.

Some questions that I'm often asked about the experience.
Knowing how to swim is not necessary, as I can provide you with a life jacket (remember to request it when making your reservation).
However, you'll enjoy much more if you feel comfortable in the sea.
You only need a swimsuit, water, and a towel. I'll provide you with a rash guard to protect you from the sun.
Absolutely, remember to apply sunscreen in advance so it absorbs and doesn't make you slippery on the board. Make sure to use ocean-friendly sunscreens.
Of course! They usually love it.
If your next question is about the minimum age, it really depends on each child. If they're too small to be on a board, we can provide them with arm floaties or I can lend you a life jacket, and they can join you on the board.
Remember, you don't need to stand up to enjoy a paddleboarding session with your little one.
Of course not. It is included in the price.
However, if you want to bring your own board, I'll offer you a discount on the activity price.
The activity will only be canceled if the safety of the participants is compromised.
If the class hasn't started yet, I'll offer an alternative date, and if that's not possible, a full refund will be provided.
