Paddleboarding
At the Jersey Shore, paddleboarding continues to grow in popularity. Whether you sit, kneel or stand, this water-based sport is a cross between surfing and canoeing. Paddleboarding is a low-impact water sport that can help improve balance, coordination, endurance, and body strength. Instructors will help you find your balance and adjust your position for comfort. Some things to expect from this class include:
Learning how to safely set up the board in the lake
Learning how to enter and exit the board
Learning how to stand and kneel on the board
The inflatable paddleboard is the ultimate balancing platform for a full body workout, increasing strength and core stability, leading to improved proprioception and coordination.
Dates: Mondays July 6- August 17 Fee: $20 per class
Youth (8-13) : 3pm-4pm
Adult (14+): 4:30pm-5:30pm
