Intro to WWSUP: Weekend Immersion
Labor Day Weekend 2017
September 2-3, 2017
I've teamed up with Mountain River Guides (MRG) on the banks of the Nolichucky River to offer a special weekend workshop for beginning whitewater paddleboarders. All equipment is provided or bring your own (same price). If you're on Facebook check out the event for the latest info.
With 2 days to immerse yourself in the river and the arts of whitewater SUP you will be amazed at the change in your perspective as you move from “riding” the river to “dancing with” the river. As an instructor I am always excited to have a 2 day workshop which allows the time for new habits to germinate and sprout.
Arrive in good health with moderate fitness and expect to be on the water at least 4 hours each day. We will begin with fundamentals on quiet water and quickly progress to louder conditions on various local rivers with up to class 2 whitewater. In addition to basic paddle technique and stances you’ll learn a bit about river-reading, board control, and safety considerations. And - of course - if there's anything I've written about in this blog that you'd like to spend time on ... let me know and we'll work it in to the itinerary.
Take advantage of MRG's lodging and meal options and get to know your fellow students and instructors around the table and campfire. Fellowship like this is often just as important as time spent practicing on the water.

And on top of all of this ... drum roll ... admission to a special music event that Sunday evening at the outpost.
This is going to be fun.
