Perth Stand Up Paddle School

Fun, fun and more fun with every class. Nicky does a sensational job! What a joy to have met so many fellow Suppers too.

My very first time on a paddle board and I was nervous, especially as I am not a particularly sporting person. Our instructor Shannon was great and I felt totally safe. In the end I even managed to stand up on the board which was a great achievement for me. Shannon was really supportive and patient with me and the rest of our class. Would thoroughly recommend this experience.

We were given two SUP gift vouchers, as I had watched peeps on the river at Freshwater, thinking what fun!
We had a private family lesson with Nicki …. Wow! It was indeed soo much fun.
Nicki is a wonderful effervescent and engaging coach, especially for first “old timers” like ourselves. She is such a natural at explaining, supporting and encouraging that it all seemed a dream come true!
Yes, I/we fell off but it added to the fun. We had such a lovely family time that we will definitely be back on the water soon.
Thank you Nicki for your total support and encouragement allowing us something new to look forward to with our children & grandchildren in our retirement!

Great intro class on Saturday morning led by Shannon. Covered everything we needed to know to make a start at SUP. 90mins duration was just long enough. Managed to crack standing up and only fell in a couple of times!

Really enjoyed it and felt confident afterwards that I would be able to use a stand up paddle board and actually enjoy it as well.
Great to learn how to paddle properly and I was paddling around quite well after just an hour and a half.

Nicki is a wonderfully encouraging and skilled SUP teacher. She is supportive but also great at challenging students, whatever their ability. I was so happy with my skill progression during the lesson, and also with my confidence on the water.
Thanks Nicki, I’m inspired!

I have been Stand Up Paddling for several years, but with several long breaks. Unsure about how to get started again and how to get motivated, I decided to join the Beginner's Class! There was so much that I had forgotten - and the opportunity to get my mojo back in such a fun class of men and women of all ages, was just what I needed. Since then I have been SUPing regularly, both on the ocean and on the river. Nicki's classes are fun and motivating. Whether you have never been on a board before, or if you just need a refresher, there will be a class or a lesson for you. The more confident you become, the more relaxing the whole thing is! You won't regret giving this a go, I am sure.

Nicki is an absolute pleasure to deal with, so knowledgeable and brings the fun to a great learning environment. Highly recommend.

This is it - best year of my life! I bought an iSUP over 18mths ago and had a sporadically been paddling for a few months, then I joined the school & social SUP facebook groups and I haven't looked back, only forward (not down). I've been to the Freo, Lake Leschenaultia & Rotto adventure trips as well as a couple of 6am social paddles plus currently in the middle of 2nd round of SUP Fitness sessions at Bicton Baths. Nicki is amazing, a born leader and friend to all - she is my soul sister - her energy and enthusiasm are contagious and I especially love that she has launched the social SUP community. I've gained new friends, improved my skills and above all else had lots of fun. I encourage you to join a lesson, the next adventure or social outing - you won't regret it!

Absolutely awesome lesson. Learnt so much about board control, paddle technics etc in such a fun way. Thanks Nikki!

Nicki ran a great team building day for us today. We had so much fun and learnt a lot. Highly recommend.

Just had an incredible morning with Nicky and can’t recommend Perth Stand Up Paddle School enough! Such an awesome fun experience!

Loved my stand up paddle class. Nicky is such an amazing instructor so full of energy and enthusiasm. Would highly recommend to everyone. Thank you Nicky for sharing your skills.

Fun, fun and more fun with every SUP fit class, not to mention improving my skills and learning new ones. I'm in my second year of classes, including winter ones! Nicky does a sensational job! What a joy to have met so many fellow Suppers too.

Really excellent training session. Having never been on a SUP, I was amazed at how quickly Nicki got me (and the attendees) up and paddling. Lots of fun and great teaching. I had an absolute ball and feel confident to buy a board and get practicing

Excellent introduction to SUPs. Nicky is a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable instructor. The location of Freshwater Bay is a beautiful one as well with lovely calm water.

Nicki makes learning SUP fun and easy. She has a wonderful sense of humour, is good fun, friendly and gives everyone individual attention and training.

Nicki is a warm and skilled teacher and the introduction to SUP has been a game changer for me. Can't wait to do more!

I had a 1 on 1 lesson with Nicki yesterday. Nicki is amazing. She is a great teacher and was so encouraging. I felt so much more confident on the water and was really surprised how I was up and paddling away in no time at all. I would without hesitation recommend Nicki to anyone wanting to learn how to SUP. Thank you Nicki. I had so much fun!

Can't rave about the weekend away enough! Fantastically organised, perfect balance of activities and free time and loads of laughter. A bunch of strangers brought together like we knew each other forever. Nicky is just lovely. Highly recommend!
