Service Description

Build your confidence, technique, and endurance on the water with our structured 4‑session Stand Up Paddleboard Distance Progression Course, based at Preston Park on the River Tees. This course is designed for people who have paddled before and want to build on their existing skills, increase their distance, and progress beyond shorter sessions. If you’ve already tried paddleboarding and want to take the next step, this is the ideal way to do it. Across four 2‑hour sessions, you’ll learn efficient paddle technique, improve your balance and control, and gradually increase your distance from 4km to 7km, working towards paddling up to 10km comfortably and safely. The final distance is tailored to the group’s ability on the day, ensuring everyone progresses at a pace that feels achievable and enjoyable. With small groups (max 6 people), personalised coaching, and a friendly, encouraging atmosphere, this course is perfect for anyone looking to push themselves, explore more of the river, and achieve something genuinely rewarding. If you’re ready to progress your paddling and take on a new challenge, book your place and start your journey towards longer, more confident paddles.
