"I contacted Helen about having a lesson for my partners birthday as we had both never done it before. We were travelling to the venue from Norwich as part of a short break and Helen was excellent in her communication with me, through e-mail, text and over the phone, no question was too much for her to answer. The day we had our lesson could not have gone smoother. Helen was all set up ready to go and after about 10 minutes on land it was onto the water... The location at Teston bridge was fantastic and Helen's tuition was calm and helpful, we had a great time, paddling was easy and we learnt to turn, move forward in a straight line and lots of important information about travelling on the river. We now want to get our own boards after just one lesson, thanks to Helen and the service she provided. thank you." - Tony D

"What a fantastic time me and my 3 friends had on Saturday SUPing with Helen down in Kent. It was my first time and loved every minute of it (even falling in at the end!). Helen was a fantastic teacher. She explained and showed us the technique required really well, which made it much easier, and made sure we had fun too. Thoroughly enjoyable - I would recommend it (and Helen) to anyone who enjoys the outdoors and wants to find another way to relax and keep fit (its great for core strength and upper body). Great value for money too." - Rachel W

"Helen was great, really knowledgeable and patient. Helen has a great range of boards and paddles for you to use as well as life jackets and wetsuits. I felt very safe the whole time, even when I ended up falling in! 100% recommend Helen to anyone wanting to try paddle boarding for the first time - you're in great hands. I'll be booking more lessons for sure." - Tegen C

"We had a lovely 2 hour session with Helen on Saturday. We were all complete beginners so were learning from scratch - miraculously (or perhaps due to Helen's expert tuition), none of us fell in! The stretch of river from Teston is very pretty and a nice environment to get to grips with SUPing. Highly recommend." - Louise A

"We met Helen while she was out on the water and we were dog walking along the river, it looked so tranquil. She shouted the name of her company across to us so we tracked her down on Facebook - sooo glad we did! Just had our first SUP lesson, what a hoot! Helen was super friendly, very reassuring, patient and very encouraging! Had a couple of hours on the Medway with her and she taught us all the basics! If you want to try SUPing for the first time and unsure how to go about it - SUP with us and Helen is the best place to start...you won't regret it!!" - Clair M

I had an amazing morning with Gill and a group of lovely ladies under Angela's instruction. I was terrified to start with but now have the bug to paddleboard and can't wait to try it again. Angela you were very calm and your instructions brilliant - my arms now ache but I'm sure I'll manage a well earned glass of wine later!! Thank you!" - Justine M

"Great service from start to finish. If you're considering trying this, give SUP with us your money. We were provided with all the equipment and two hour tuition in a nice group of four. The instructor was very patient, engaging and thorough. I feel from this one session alone, comfortable enough to go and get a board and start SUP, I put this down to the quality of the lesson we received. We were given advice on boards, Apps to download for destinations and wind speed etc as well as being added to a social group on Whatsapp. Give it a go, you won't be disappointed." - Sam L

"Recently had a brilliant introduction to SUP with Angela and progressed much faster than I expected with her clear guidance and support.

Would definitely recommend Angela and SUP with us to anyone looking to learn." - Louise B

Angela made me feel very relaxed and surprising (most of all to me) I was up on my feet in no time. I would recommend Angela and SUP to anyone that fancies giving it a try. Social distancing and lots of extra cleaning was also completed - which made me feel very comfortable even in these challenging times. I will definitely be going back for another go. Who knew paddleboarding could be so peaceful - even from your first try. Thank you Angela." - Christy H

"This team of two very capable, enthusiastic and qualified ladies, who are dedicated to helping others enjoy stand up paddling as much as they do, recently organised a long weekend SUP "retreat" on Lake Vassiviere, near Limoges. It was a great trip. Angela and Helen have boundless energy and expertise. Not only do they plan meticulously to ensure your safety, they also think on their feet to make sure every situation creates maximum enjoyment whatever your level of experience. We had an absolute blast. No hesitation in recommending SUP with us!" - Susan J

"I booked a lesson with Angela with 2 other friends! We are hooked! Angela was careful to explain everything we needed to know and I felt very safe and confident. It started to thunder so we had to cut short the lesson, but she was happy to reschedule to get our full 2 hours. We were taught all the basics of SUP and were then confident enough to venture out on our own! Thank you for giving us a new hobby! I strongly recommend giving this a go!" - Helen P
