Intermediate SUP: Refine Skills. Expand Horizons.
Ready for what’s next?
Our Intermediate SUP lessons are designed for paddlers who have completed Learn to SUP (or have equivalent experience with at least 10+ hours on the water) and are ready to deepen their skills, efficiency, and confidence.
This is where paddleboarding starts to feel powerful.
For $85, you’ll spend two focused hours on the Petaluma River with an ACA-certified instructor, in an intentionally small group of no more than 5 students. Expect personalized coaching, detailed feedback, and real skill development.
We’ll refine and build upon the fundamentals:
A stronger, more efficient forward stroke
Advanced turning techniques
Confident footwork and stance transitions
Improved balance and stability
Understanding water dynamics and river movement
Paddling faster, straighter, and with less effort
As your technique improves, new possibilities open — longer paddles, windier conditions, higher tides, touring beyond the basics, and exploring new waterways with confidence.
Held in the heart of downtown Petaluma on the Petaluma River, this class is your next step toward truly feeling at home on your board.
Only 5 paddlers per session. Personalized attention. Meaningful progression.
