PADDLE SURF COURSE<\/span><\/h3>\n
\n\t

Stand-up paddleboarding is a rapidly growing sport that involves moving along on a board whilst standing, using a paddle. Although it seems like a simple concept, it is a very well-rounded sport that develops the whole body and improves balance. Isla Canela has fantastic beaches for practising the sport; there are generally not many waves, which makes it ideal for learning. It is a beautiful setting for paddling trips and, apart from the coastline with its sandy islands, you can also paddle along the River Guadiana, the River Carreras and through the salt marshes. When there is an easterly wind, clean, orderly waves roll in for more advanced paddlers.<\/p>\n

The standard course lasts 10 hours, spread over 5 sessions of 2 hours each. Under normal circumstances, courses run from Monday to Friday and it is recommended that they be taken consecutively. However, we adapt to the client\u2019s needs, whether to shorten or extend the duration. The only requirement is to be over 10 years old and a confident swimmer. During the course, the school will provide all the equipment: board, paddle and life jacket.<\/p>\n

The brand chosen by our school is primarily Starboard, a world-leading brand with unbeatable equipment.
\nWe also use inflatable boards from Zero, a new brand that is here to stay.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

COURSE STRUCTURE<\/span><\/h3>\n
\n\t

The course is structured in stages: theory, paddle handling, paddling technique, positioning on the board, safety rules, turns and surfing with the aid of the paddle. First, there will be a practical and theoretical session on land covering all the above aspects. We teach stretching, warm-ups and breathing techniques before entering the water.<\/p>\n

The rest of the course is spent in the water practising getting in and out of the water safely, balance in the water (lying down, sitting and standing), first strokes and basic turns. You will be accompanied at all times by an instructor, who will move alongside the students on another board. If there are waves, we will also teach you how to catch them and surf with the help of the paddle.<\/p>\n

The maximum number of students is eight per instructor. Private lessons are also available for students who require more individual attention or who prefer to learn the basics and then practise on their own.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

OBJECTIVE<\/span><\/h3>\n
\n\t

The aim of the course is for students to be able to sail confidently on their own in all conditions. We will always strive to make the learning experience enjoyable. By the end of the course, students should be able to sail independently.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
