A little bit about me and my Paddle & Ski Experience. I first got involved in SUP as something else to do on the water alongside my waterskiing. Loving the freedom that sup gave me in that I could paddle anywhere with anyone, I pursued the SuP Instructor pathway, with friends starting to ask for tips on how to paddle and to join me out on the water. My professional background is that of a health and safety specialist, a qualified Dry Slope Ski Instructor, Waterskiing Instructor so it only seemed right to add SUP Instructor to my CV. SupSkiFit was created in December 2020 as sole trading company and remains as such into its 5th year of trading and is now the only ASI Accredited Paddle School in North Wales.My vision is to introduce as many people as possible into both dry skiing and stand up paddling in a safe and enjoyable way, help to educate clients on paddle / ski environments, equipment / clothing choice, fitness to paddle / ski and how paddle / ski safely.

Your Feedback Matters

Stand up Paddle /Dry Ski Lessons

Welcome to SuPSkiFit. As a fully qualified Ski Instructor and owner of an ASI Accredited Paddle School, my philosophy is to make both sports accessible by way of enjoyment and learning. Ski lessons are run and managed through Runcorn Ski Centre, Paddle Lessons and Tours run from the beautiful coastline on Anglesey.

Which ever sport you choose to learn, my years of teaching experience, safety background and love of being either on the water or on the ski slope will ensure you not just learn but also enjoy the experience.
