Train 2 Gain Ocean is a 3-week paddleboarding course with 2-hour sessions each week, designed for paddlers who are confident with the basics and want to improve in open water. Based on the sea around Christchurch and Mudeford, the sessions focus on ocean confidence, efficient paddling, board control, small chop, wind, launching and landing, and handling changing conditions. You will learn how to paddle further and with more confidence in the sea, with coaching tailored to your level in a small, friendly group. Perfect if you want to move from river paddling into the ocean, prepare for longer paddles or racing, or simply become a stronger and more capable paddler on the sea.
