Just waiting for the right moment to paddle out #paitence #supsurfing #ericera my #supcoach is trying my board 👌🏻💙 (her: Ericeira)
The proper use of a PFD for SUP.
I can't believe he said that, but it makes me happy.
Hi Brody,
I just wanted to say Thank You for having me at this wonderful course, I really enjoyed every minute of it.
I really like where you are heading with your determination and strong core values.
You are defiantly the best in the industry and you proved that last weekend.

Why can't I teach?
We get that question every once in a while. "If I take PaddleFit Level 3 I can teach Levels 1 and 2 right?" This is a very valid question considering most of the other SUP certifications take this approach. Our answer is unfortunately no you can't teach, at least not yet. There are 3 main reasons and they are fairly straight forward. Reason #1: In the future, we do not want the people who are taking Level 1 and 2 to receive different educational experiences. Right now we have about 70 people who are PaddleFit Level 3 and if we allowed everyone to teach Level 1 and 2 there would be 70 different ways that PaddleFit would be taught and that is not good. This is no fault of the Level 3 coaches, it is just a matter of how much we can assimilate in a weekend course. The certification courses would be watered down and it would not provide a consistent educational experience. Reason #2: We do not want to play favorites. Unfortunately there will be people who will abuse their power to be able to pick and choose who they allow in their classes and who they pass and fail. Here is a scenario: You are offering a PaddleFit Level 1 at your shop and your competitor wants to have his/her entire staff take the course. Do you see a conflict here? I do not want people to be put in this situation. Reason #3: SUP education is evolving. I will be the first one to admit that we will continue to learn and evolve as an organization because SUP in so new. It is much easier to pass down info to a core group of coaches then it is to hope and pray that all 70+ people will get the information and hope and pray they they use the information. It would and does make for a mess.
We are supremely confident that we are taking the correct approach for us and our coaches. We want the PaddleFit Level 1, 2, 3 and Affiliate coaches to be focused on one thing: Getting clients healthy and active through PaddleFit and SUP. That mission will be both fulfilling and provide a means to make a thriving business.
At PaddleFit, the process to become a teacher of our certification courses is a strenuous one. First you need to be an Affiliate, then you need to attend two Level 1 and 2 courses, then you need to help teach a Level 1 and 2 and finally teach a Level 1 and 2 under the supervision of one of our current teachers.
Our focus is to provide a phenomenal educational experience and to provide opportunities for our coaches to impact the SUP and outdoor fitness community.
See you on the water.
