SUP Surf Clinics give you the best coaching experience at an affordable price.

Our SUP surf clinics are focussed weekends that bring likeminded paddlers together to learn, improve and share in a great experience. Over a number of full days of intensive coaching sessions, paddlers are armed with the knowledge and tools to continue their improvement into the future. You’ll learn about technique, equipment, benefit from video analysis and have the opportunity to chat with Beau during the clinic to absorb as much information as you can.

What our clients say

Lots of fun

Stefan Testka, UK

I would 100% recommend coaching from Beau and Travel with a Paddle to any SUP surfer. I feel like I've gone up a level across the board in technique, awareness, reading the conditions, etiquette in the line-up and just having a load of fun doing it.

Knowledgeable

Philip Amison, UK

Beau is a really knowledgeable coach. His approach during the SUP clinic really helped to identify areas where I can improve my technique.

Highly Recommended

Sash Hauzaree, UK

Beau is an amazing coach who can make you feel confident by recognising your abilities but knows when to guide you in the right direction. His professional attitude to bringing out the best in you, which he shares amongst the group equally makes you feel confident. He sits or paddles in the water and definitely takes notes on how you’re performing and then gives you the right pointers to work on. It was a nice personal touch that his dad was the cameraman and did an amazing job filming everyone considering how far away we were. The video analysis and coaching session was far the best I’ve ever had that I learnt so much about my style and SUP surfing also from watching the others and hearing Beau tips for them to improve. …

Memorable

Damion Parry

I've just come back from a weekends SUP clinic and I can't praise Beau and his team highly enough. Saturday saw us surfing at a local break, followed by a post session analysis and Sunday had been planned to be an epic downwinder. Beau went above and beyond to make sure this would run smoothly. Unfortunately the forecast didn't pan out as expected, but that was no problem. Plan b was put in place and we had an amazing day. I can only imagine the effort that was put in behind the scenes to rearrange everything as transport was reorganised for us and we were picked up/dropped off from a completely different location as if by magic. Again. Thank you. Such a memorable weekend.

Highly Recommend

Craig Mitchell

I would highly recommend a clinic to anyone looking to improve their technique or learn new skills in the various categories of paddle boarding. Great company, great tuition, a good time.

What Should You Expect From A Clinic?

As a roaming location SUP Surf Clinic, we’ll be capitalising on the conditions and confirming the best beach for our sessions based on the forecast. 

Beau will be tailoring the sessions and choosing the right locations to suit your skill level, goals and aspirations. We welcome SUP surfers to book onto the Clinic that suits your skill level (see above). This is to ensure equal coaching time spent with each participant and you can get the most out of the weekend.

If you are not confident with the recommended skill level, please click to see our other coaching options.

You will learn about reading the conditions and waves to maximise your sessions, how to tune your equipment, working on skills and drills to improve your technique (tailored to your specific needs) and looking at your surfing on video to understand the correct body movements. We also encourage open discussions on reading forecasts, equipment, technique and just about everything else to do with SUP surfing.

Once registered, you will be added to a WhatsApp group where all updates and locations will be posted to.

Other Key Details

We highly recommend to bring your own gear so you can maximise your progression and learning potential. However we will have a small selection of SUPs for you if:
a) you would like to try something new, or
b) you wish to rent a SUP for the entire weekend as you don’t have a board.
We will also provide some paddles and a selection of fins for you to try.

If you need recommendations on places to stay, how to get there or anything else, please let us know upon registration.

Don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity to learn from the best and take your SUP surfing to the next level.

If we receive an overwhelming amount of interest, we will put on more dates and availability. Alternatively, if you don’t see a date that suit you please let us know via the contact form.
