Bonkers Paddle Boarding Lessons
Paddle boarding Lesson - Introduction (all equipment provided) £35
So you've seen it - it's cool - it's relatively easy -and now its time you really should give it a go. Like everything, if a professional can show you some basics, you know you will be doing it right, safely and be able to make the most of your time on the water.
All the Instructors are trained, qualified and experienced and will take you through - equipment, setting up, launching and landing, getting to grips with the board, standing up, stance, correct paddling techniques and more.
We have been teaching SUP from when it was invented - and recently perfected our skills to ensure you get the right tuition, fun, and the best possible SUP experience. - all our boards are carefully chosen to help you learn and then progress.
This isn't just a 'taster' that other centres run. This is a full tuition sessions with our top instructors - teaching you everything you need to know, not only to get up up and paddling, but invaluable information so you are doing it properly for the future.
This is a group lesson. We run them at set times (usually SATURDAYS), or if you can get a couple of friends together, we can set up a session around your requirements.

SUP Lesson - Full Course - 3 sessions (all equipment provided) £90
If you want to just try SUP - book the Introduction session. If you really want to get into the sport then the Full Course is for you. This course is spit over 3 sessions. (currently Saturdays)
This starts with the Introduction Lesson, and then carries on with 2 further tuition sessions. The difference with people balance and skills is noticeable after 3 sessions compared to just 1. It allows time to practise, all the skills you need to know (from basics to advanced paddling strokes) and, conditions permitting, a 2 mile paddle with the instructor on the river. There is time to try a selection of boards and really get to grips with this amazing sport.
This is a group lesson - we can always arrange private tuition if you prefer.

This session will cover improving balance and stance, show you different paddlestokes, and some cool turns and tricks.

SUP Yoga
1.5 hour session
(allow longer for set up, and refreshments afterwards !).......£25 (board included)
These are always fully booked - so please book early for 2019. Saturdays 10.30am-12
4th May, 8th June, 29th June, 27th July, 3rd August, 31st August
This is not just doing some yoga moves on SUP's - this is a FULL ON YOGA SESSION
Most people have either done yoga before and fancy doing it on the water OR
They already SUP and fancy doing the yoga session
Bonkers have been running SUP Yoga for 2 years now.
To do Yoga you need the good stable boards that BONKERS have (not just any old boards)
You also need a PROPER YOGA INSTRUCTOR (not just a paddle coach who has done a course)
That's exactly what we do at Bonkers.
But there's more..... we also have the perfect location. The creek opposite our centre has a perfect flow of water entering it. Its the feed for the HEP. There is a line of buoys that we tie on to, so all the boards sit in the perfect position.
SUP YOGA - we thought it was a fad - until we tried it - it's awesome. It's so lovely be in the perfect, peaceful outdoors venue (well, apart from the odd swan - see pictures below...
the woobles make the exercise so much better - its great fun and so rewarding.

Part of the reason for Bonkers Activities is the Social Enterprise element. The bonkers family team, believe in the power of families 'playing together' so this is a special price for this
We can always do a good price for a 'group'. This special price, special product, is designed for a FAMILY. The dynamics work completely differently if you try and make up numbers by adding non family members, or 2 families together. We can of course do that, but will need to talk to you so we understand what you want out of your session so we can tailor it for you.
see the GROUP PAGE for non family groups. This is for a family with small children. Once your children are teenager age and above, this isn't the right product, But we can still run a session exclusive for your family if the children are older - email us for details, and to arrange your bespoke session.
We can park by the river, on our own private field (see video), take things at your pace... why not bring a picnic too ;0)
These can be mixed up with Kayaks or Canoes as well as SUP for a great session !
** The subsidised price is ONLY AVAILABLE MIDWEEK. We can be flexible on time, to suit getting to us after school and/or work.
We can arrange a session for you at weekends, email us for the options
Bonkers Sup Touring
SUP River Trips
BonkSup are specialists in River Trips. The River Avon, between Evesham and Pershore is the most perfect place for your SUP Touring Experience.
River Experience Pershore - 2 hour lesson (£45pp) (min 3 people). A gentle introduction to exploring the river. It is suitable for anyone that has done the 'Starter' session with us (or paddled before). We use the touring boards, which give better glide and allows us to cover a greater distance with less effort. We love this session, the river is truly beautiful and a perfect way to progress your skills. The instructors will cover advanced paddle techniques and by the end you will be paddling as well as anyone can.
Fancy a longer river trip?
With a lifetime background in running river trips with kayaks and canoes, Bonkers will ensure your trip is organised, safe and relaxed. With our own 9 seater VW minibus and specialist Touring boards, we can drop the group up stream, for your down stream paddle.
There are so many options here that it is best to give Alex a call so we can tailor the session to your needs and what you want to get out of it.
Have your own board? - just want a map and a drop off up stream so you can paddle back to your car and changing rooms......... we can do that.
Want to try a 'proper' Touring board? surf board shapes are OK, but if your travelling on flat water, a 'boat shape' makes a lot more sense. Bonkers are Touring specialist with a range of boards to try
