    Each session will have a focus, but all of it will improve your sailing!

    Sessions might include:

    • Boat Handling & Tacking Efficiency
    • Sail Trim & Boat Balance
    • Mark Rounding Techniques
    • Starting Strategy & Acceleration
    • Upwind Strategy & Shifting Conditions
    • Downwind Sailing & Gybes
    • Racing Situations & Rules in Action
    • Mini Regatta

    Sign up to each session individually, at least three days before, so we know our numbers.

  • Cancelled: Stand Up Paddleboard Yoga Session

    • 06 Sep 2025
    • Otley Sailing Club

    Due to circumstances beyond our control, there are no SUP Yoga sessions this month.


    We're very excited to be working once again in conjunction with Everyday Lifestyle to offer SUP Yoga Sessions at Otley! The sessions will be run by accomplished ASI instructors with many years experience in stand up paddling and Yoga.

    The lessons are 1 hour long, for a maximum of 6 paddlers. They are suitable for adults (over 16 years) who have completed a previous beginners class, or who are experienced paddleboarders, and for Yoga enthusiasts (for whom paddleboarding experience is not essential).

    For those not familiar with the lake at Otley, it's an enclosed flat water location that provides a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere full of natural beauty and wildlife.

    Please arrive 15 minutes prior to the lesson starting.

    What equipment do you provide & what do I need to bring?

    You'll need to bring a swimsuit to go under the wetsuit, towel and footwear, either water shoes or old trainers.

    All equipment will be provided - Wetsuits, buoyancy aids, paddles and a range of paddle boards with leash. We have a range of boards O'Shea, Starboard, Red Paddle and STX.


    Also today, for those new to paddleboarding, we have morning and afternoon Beginners Stand Up Paddleboard Training Sessions.

    We're very excited to be working once again in conjunction with Everyday Lifestyle to offer Stand Up Paddleboard sessions. The sessions will be run by accomplished ASI instructors with many years experience in stand up paddling.

    The lessons are 2 hours long, for a maximum of 6 paddlers (per course) and are suitable for adults (over 16 years) of all abilities. For those not familiar with the lake at Otley, it's an enclosed flat water location that provides a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere full of natural beauty and wildlife.

    Please arrive 15 minutes prior to the lesson starting.

    All equipment will be provided - Wetsuits, buoyancy aids, paddles and a range of paddle boards with leash. We have a range of boards O'Shea, Starboard, Red Paddle and STX.

    Is the Intermediate course the right course for me?

    If you can both stand up and steer reasonably well then the intermediate course would be good for you. Rather than focusing on the basics, the intermediate course teaches you how to paddle more effectively so you can go faster or further with less effort and also how to do better turns. On the other hand, if you are not yet confident standing and steering then the beginners course would be best for you.
